He catches eyes with his looks and steals hearts with his personality!🖤 Our Fly guy truly is one of a kind and we love him dearly for it. Fly is 23 years young and unfortunately has an old injury that has caught up to him with some arthritis. He is a sanctuary horse with SGR meaning he will live out the rest of his time with us. Fly would love a monthly sponsor to help cover his supplements and feed as he’s a big guy and requires a lot to maintain his beautiful self.

If you’d be interested in sponsoring Fly, message us! And plan to come visit him at our Christmas on the Farm Dec. 13th!

♥️💙 She may not have the physique of Wonder Woman but Reese really is a wonder mare! She’s an easy keeper with minimal maintenance and doesn’t get bothered by much, because that would require too much energy. 😅 She is a middle of the herd girl, does great with geldings or polite mares. Reese is looking for a home where she can be pampered like the queen she is. She loves being groomed and is as honest as they come with ground work! We have used her to teach new volunteers horsemanship and groundwork skills. She does light western riding now. She does a round pen but prefers the openness of trails when riding. She leads, loads, bathes and is quiet for the farrier and vet. Reese deserves the very best so let’s help her find it!

If you’d be interested in adopting Reese or sponsoring her, please message us or come visit her at our Christmas on the Farm event!

We have a few spots left for our first Hoof Care Class with our favorite farrier this weekend!

Liz will go over the proper holding and picking of the hoof as well as in depth discussion and demonstration about how hoof care affects the horses health over all.

HUGE shoutout to Sterling Meadows Feed-Tack and their customers for donating their older consignment tack items to us! Yesterday we were able to have our own used tack sale with items that have been donated over the past few months and it helped us raise almost $1000!! We appreciate Sterling Meadows, their customers and those who came out and supported SGR yesterday for helping raise money for the care of our rescues! ♥️

Stay tuned for more details on another upcoming tack sale next month!

While most laminitis is diet related, don't believe that it is only caused by grass or only caused by extreme hoof neglect.

Letting the toes stretch too long invites the inner hoof structures to move out of functionality (as well as opening the door for bacteria and fungus), so there might be some risk for a laminitic episode with keeping long toes on your horse.

Food induced laminitis can cause the inflammation of the laminae which compromises the connection holding the coffin bone in place.

Allowing a horse to become metabolic through inappropriate diet sets up a recipe for disaster.

Combining both inappropriate feeding and long feet makes the odds of a problem higher and Much More likely to be severe.

There are no shortcuts in horses.

People who love their horses come to realize this fast.

Laminitis is a Both/And issue, meaning the it can involve demands that must be managed simultaneously, rather than "either/or."

We need to both manage the food intake. It's important to also keep the hooves in an appropriate shape.

Even if there is no laminitic concern, this is important across the board.

It is worth noting the region of practice for the managing vet and farrier may be impacted by environmental factors, for instance, in an area out West where the terrain and the grasses are different than this coast, there would be tweaks to advice given depending on location.
