Hi all!! Trusting Spirit has gone through some changes this year. Claudia Trapp retired from her job as a US Postmaster after many long years. She now has the freedom to enjoy some family and travel time. With this life change came the need to retire from the rescue business as well and move the rescue to someone who will be available on a daily basis to care for the horses. Claudia has given her time selflessly for almost 20 years and helped 50+ animals from horses to llamas, alpacas, goats and the occasional dog or cat. TSHR board voted to re-assign the 501c3 to our wonderful and irreplaceable volunteer McKena Fraley. She has dedicated endless hours to THSR for the last few years and is ready to take on the rescue herself. The location of Trusting Spirit has moved from Orondo to Royal City where McKena and her boyfriend Rylie live. They created 5 acres for the horses to roam and even have pasture combined with dry lot to meet their nutritional needs. McKena adopted 2 horses when TSHR moved, Freedom our mustang mare and Little, an older mare who is a newer addition to TSHR. She will support these 2 mares. She also moved Classic our sweet beautiful arabian gelding to live out his days until he succumbs to the cancer that has been growing in his body for years, yet he acts like a youngster still unaffected. Classic will be supported by rescue donations.

In an effort to think long term and not overwhelm McKena, THSR partnered with North Idaho Blessings from above to rehome, Spirit, Ruby and Mouse to their farm in North Idaho. North Idaho Blessings From Above horse rescue& sanctuary TSHR has provided funding for these 3 horses as donations become available and would like to continue to do so since they are likely long-term residents. Kimberly Jo Boughton has many rescues already and graciously offered to take in the 3 of ours when Claudia retired.

Stephanie Stibal has remained on the Board of TSHR and of course McKena is now the registered agent and board member, we will look to add to the board with the resignation of Cindy Wall last spring. We want to thank Cindy for making such a huge difference for TSHR with her fundraising and marketing skills. She kept us organized, had a positive attitude, great sense of humor and will be missed! We wish her the best! Trusting Spirit Horse Rescue’s board may have switched up but the mission and dreams for our herd have stayed the same.
Mckena is starting from the ground up in Royal City, the rescue's new home.

As we enter Fall and start preparing for Winter, we thought this would be a great time for a fundraiser. One of our main goals we'd like to raise money for is building a second shelter. We want to make sure everyone has room to escape the elements. Second, we had the opportunity to buy a large amount of hay this summer to make sure we were covered throughout winter, but now we'd like to build back up our hay savings. Another expense we could always use help with is farrier visits.

Here is the link to our website with additional ways to contribute!

As always, we really appreciate any amount you can offer or just sharing our fundraiser! Each & everyone one of you helps make a difference for our horses!

Group picture seems about right- one wanting to be center of attention, one giving stink eye, one not paying attention 👍

TSHR is hoping to help get these two horses to a forever home! Monet & Jericho were adopted from the rescue in 2013. Please reach out if you’re interested in giving them the retirement home they deserve.

Monet & Jericho

From current owner- “
“The perfect duo, these two geldings are in their upper teens to 20, both Arabian geldings around 15 to 15.5 hands high. They are both kind and gentle, they lead, bathe, fly spray, tie, load and trailer great. They have good manners around all people of any age and also any livestock. They have been with sheep, goats, cows, pigs, chickens, dogs, cats… ect and I have had no problems really at all.. Monet is the bay and the sheep were not his favorite but he tolerated them. I have had them both saddled and bridled and have been on them.. and they both need lots of training to be rideable. Monet does great with kids on his back and can be lead around without worry. These horses still have a lot of energy and LOVE to play with EVERYTHING they can find including traffic cones balls and even cardboard boxes. They have no medical issues at this time and their feet are in good health. They will definitely keep you entertained. They like to steal your gloves and scarfs and hats right off you, and also like to drink from the hose! These two need a good retirement home with pasture and love ❤️ Would be great for companion animals or kids or elderly to love on. “

The sky showed off for us tonight during feeding 🌄

Soaking up the sunshine as much as we can lately. Apparently Classic has also been soaking up the mud!

Emele Clothier, formerly from the popular band Horse Crazy, provided the evening’s entertainment.

We’re so honored to be out tonight listening to the awesome talents of T.R. Stewart with all the folks at the Twisp chapter Fraternal order of the Eagles. They generously hosted a fund raiser dinner for Trusting Spirit. What a fabulous evening! Fun, food, entertainment and really great company. THANK YOU Betty Wagoner and the folks at the Twisp Chapter F.O.E. ☺️😁

Ibn is only a few weeks into training and doing great! This is about his 4th ride, such any easy going willing to please beauty.

A Midnight Ride
A Midnight Ride

Midnight had a special visit from Stephanie Stibal this past weekend. Midnight, a Friesian cross, was one of the five horses Trusting Spirit rescued last December as part of a larger seizure and rescue effort that took place in Spokane, Wash. Since early spring, he has been in training in Manson and now lives in Chelan. He's become a beautiful, trusting, confident and splendid horse. And his adoption is about to be final. Stephanie took this opportunity to be the first one of his rescue team to ride him. What a treat for both of them.

Dreamer, the resident training horse, got a chance to stretch his legs Labor Day weekend with Jesse Fore. Way to go, Jesse. Keep him sharp!

It's About Midnight . . . .
It's About Midnight . . . .

Take a look at this stunning beauty. He arrived at Trusting Spirit in December 2013 along with five others taken during a seizure and rescue effort in Spokane, Wash. Midnight, as he was later named, arrived mangy, underweight, malnourished, lice infected and terrified of people. This is how he looks today, captured on Aug. 2 while being ridden by Mike Stokes, a horse trainer out of Manson, Wash. He's been undergoing rehabilitation and training at Stokes Ranch since mid-May with the hopes that he will be successfully adopted. You will read more about Midnight's success story as he gets closer completing his work with Mike. And yes, he already has someone interested in adopting him. So stay tuned . . .

Out for a stroll . . .
