Turbo…Love this gelding. All heart and personality. Had a gal
Come try another horse other day and her son wanted to ride…so guess who got the call? TURBO this is when you know you’re raising the right kind when a kiddo can get on one of your two year olds to just ride around for fun!’ THIS is what it’s about …raising good horses with Great minds.
Todd we think you are going to enjoy this c**t. Thanks for the opportunity. We can’t wait to see him do big things for you. Thanks Megan and Tate for all you do with these c**ts and also Kole Strayhorn for getting him started right! It takes a village of good people.

It’s OFFICIAL!!! He is MINE😍
This old stud hasn’t been in my life long but I sure Love him. His name fits him…Gritty. Full of heart, try and will to live!. It’s been touch and go since I got this guy out of a tough situation. He hasn’t been handled since 2011…
To be honest I was a little nervous about what his disposition would be like…when I seen him I was like WOW I gotta help this guy even if it was only about his last days being good ones. I am not going to bash who had him…because no one knows a situation exactly all I know is I am glad I got the call to help him.
I would like to say he looks like this picture but he doesn’t …YET!! He is coming around. And the disposition i was worried about well he is an absolute gentleman, a beautiful soul and he is so kind. He is a gorgeous dark palomino, loaded with chrome and has hazel eyes.
We have plans to try and collect him in hopes of being able to ship semen and possibly freeze semen🙏
Check out his papers…😳
Never give up and Love Big!

The tough love lessons ❤️😞

What does it really mean to "let them go on a good day?"

It means it will be your hardest day. It won't matter if you've never done it before, or if you're gifted a dozen good days, each good day is always the hardest one.

It means they won't know what the fuss is about, why they're getting so many treats and extra belly scratches and hugs.

It means you will second guess your decision right up to the very last moment, the very last breath. You'll second guess yourself afterwards.

They'll knicker at you when you arrive, just like any other day.

The weather, perfect. They are content. They look sound today. They are breathing well, eating well, they get up easily enough from a nap in the sun....the list goes on. Whatever issue they struggle with, today they aren't.

Today you euthanize them.

This is what going on a good day means: sending them out while they are happy, while they are healthy, while they are eating well, walking well, etc. You make the choice to do it before an emergency takes the choice away from you, before your horse has to experience any more trauma or pain.

Their last memory will be filled with love.

It'll rip your heart out every time.

We can see the patterns and the increasing trends. We can predict it a little. We can obsess over the past and worry about the future.

Fortunately, horses, all animals, live in the moment. They don't worry about those things. They aren't worried about winter. They aren't worried about July, or allergies, or progressive diseases like cushings or dsld. They don't think about the close calls they've had before, and they certainly aren't thinking about the close calls that are destined to come, as their body continues to age and break down. They just are. They are happy and healthy, or fearful and in pain, on that day, in that moment.

It is the most difficult, most loving gift we are blessed to be able to give.

And that first ice storm will come, that first deep snow, that first heat wave....and you will find a little relief, no longer doubting the choice you made.

They were happy, and safe, and loved. That is all that matters.

It is never easy. ~Kelly Meister, author
