What to expect from a barn call ...

🐴 Barn Visit Consult: Tune In, Connect & Support Your Horse

A 60-minute barn visit consult offers a unique opportunity to dive deep into your horse’s world—addressing physical, emotional, and behavioral needs through a mindful, holistic approach.

Here’s what you can expect:
💬 Animal Communication:
We’ll explore what your horse wants to share—about their environment, relationships, work, or overall well-being. This creates space for your horse’s voice to be heard and valued.

👐 Body Assessment & Hands-On Energy/Body Work:
I’ll assess your horse’s body for tension, imbalances, and energetic blockages, followed by hands-on energy and bodywork to release stress, improve comfort, and support long-term wellness.

🐎 Under Saddle Support:
If your horse faces challenges under saddle, we’ll explore both physical and energetic aspects to identify the root causes and create practical strategies for a smoother, more harmonious ride.

💡 Tailored Insights & Actionable Takeaways:
You’ll leave with a deeper understanding of your horse’s needs and simple, effective ways to continue supporting their well-being at home.
Requirement:
4 or more horses at the same barn or neighborhood

Ready to tune in and create more profound harmony with your horse? Message me, it's Spring tune-up time.

Bunny and Paloma are a mother/son bonded pair who are absolutely lovely mammoth donkeys.

Palmona, 15/16 yrs old and approx 15.2h is the mother and she is quiet, reserved, but warms up quickly. She feels strongly about naps and would do best where she can have a bedded place to sleep at night to get off her feet. She is showing a bit of arthritis and needs a bit of RX support for the farrier to take the edge off.

Bunny is the quintessential gelding. He is 10 years old, and a whopping 16h (he's in an 82 blanket) this guy is sweet and the typical guy who is won over with treats and scratches. He is the first to meet you at the gate and are lovely to work around. He was great for the farrier.

Both donkeys are very pleased being in stalls (before they were in a run-in situation) and they have really warmed up to the idea of having their own space for meals and sleeping. That being said, I think they would be very happy in a run-in again as well, as long as they have a soft area for Paloma to get off her feet. They halter, lead, blanket, and are extremely gentle. I believe they would make good neighbors for horses due to the their size and gentle nature, and they are currently out with mini donkeys who boss them around.

2 mammoth donkeys still eat less than 1 horse!! Easy keepers, on 1/2 scoop alfalfa pellets + VT blend am/pm, hay.

They are up to date on everything including 2025 shots, teeth and feet.

Applications are required though the rescue, but these guys are located in CT. Adoption fee is $1500 for the pair.

Just a few new random merch items available in the shop! We have made another order of mugs that will be here soon, shipping will be a little bit later on those if you order those.

Buying fun merch from our shop helps to keep everyone at the rescue fed, vetted and happy! Thanks all, and thank you to our awesome volunteer Mike for fulfilling orders, we would not be able to do this without him.

With the crazy ordeals that happened right after Emo's passing we feel as though we have been in survival mode ever since. Because of this I've forgotten to share a few important updates.

Lucy, Markus, Harry, and Sally went to their new home all together the end of January. They are loving their new people and all the horse friends they have. They are a wonderful home and a local adoption which is even more exciting.

This group of four littles were the last four long-ear rescues in Acworth. Which leads me to another bittersweet update. This is the last month we are officially running SYA in Acworth, and we will continue to move things to our home in Marlborough, NH.
We have two boarded equines there right now, Tanner and Sparkles, and then our mule, Slick. Slick will be coming to Marlborough to join his horse 'brothers' at the end of the month, and Tanner and Sparkles will be going back home to their mom as well.

The end of an era. We are so grateful to Ann and Jeff for housing SYA for over 20 years in Acworth, they have sacrificed a lot and there are so many countless memories there we will never forget. I am so happy I got to spend almost 10 years of my life in this wonderful place.

I am also very grateful to Laura for taking care of almost everything in Acworth while I've been getting things and animals sorted here at home base, and to Lynda (sparkles and Tanners mom) for all the time she has spent volunteering to take care of the SYA chores and being back up for Laura. You two gals rocked it!

This is exciting and we are happy we will have everything in one place, this will help us financially and will be much easier for all. However there may be a few tears shed by all of us on the day we bring the boys home. Half of my heart will always be in Acworth at Broomtail Farm.

Aww Bucky! We love seeing all these photos of the SYA alumni. If you have photos you don't mind us sharing, tag us in your posts we love to see them! (ps we can not see your posts unless you make it a public post)

While the girls enjoyed some (unnetted) hay, Bucky cooled off in the snow.
Sweet goober let me come snd say hello without feeling the need to get up.
He’s so precious!!!!
