This has been quite the year, with lots of changes. Many came and many found the best ever homes. Several sadly crossed the rainbow bridge, relieving them of the pain of neglect or old age. Sadly, our first donkey Ramey unexpectedly passed...breaking all our hearts.
We were blessed with the birth of Junebug who brightens everyone's day. The updates from our adopters bring such joy when we see how their lives have changed with the love of their adopted horse, donkey or minis. Many people have found a new love in their lives...donkeys.
We just had 2 come in late yesterday and we will have their story in another post. That makes 44 that came into the rescue this year, 23 adopted, 8 went to sanctuary and sadly 8 crossed the rainbow bridge. We currently have 25 on-site. We started 2025 with 28 equines, so you can see just how busy this year has been.
We hope things slow down a little in 2026. With several other rescues now in the White Mountains, there are others that can also help those in need. Hopefully we can all work together to help this region.
I need to say we have THE BEST VOLUNTEERS on the mountain. A caring group of people who freely give their time and love to all that are here at the rescue. Many have been here for years, some are here for the summer months, some come and go but help during the time they are here. Each one is so appreciated.
Lastly, we are blessed with so many fellow rescues, friends, followers and supporters, without all of you we could not do what we do. It takes a village and we are blessed with a large one...all of us, working together for the 'WellBeing ' of the horses, donkeys and minis in need. Together we save lives, give hope and homes to those in need.
Wishing you all a Happy New Year. Welcome 2026!! Year of the Horse.
