Thursday Angel and Little Dee were in the round pen.  Angel was going to get her hooves trimmed. Kirsty has been working with her so it is getting easier to pick up her hooves.  She was a good girl getting her hooves trimmed. She sat there patiently waiting as each hoof got done.  Little Dee […]

Wednesday the last of the baby goats from the last group we rescued were being adopted.  Steve brought them up to the front office while the new mom was signing her paperwork. The little babies hung out in a big bucket while the paperwork was finished up.  We are so thankful that they have bright […]

There was a very sad turn of events for one of our trainers in the Extreme Rescue Makeover contest.  One of the groups who supplied horses for the event made a verbal contract with one of the trainers, and they felt the trainer was pushing the horse too hard because the horse was sweaty after […]

Wednesday Jason and Steve headed out to rescue a little pig that could no longer stay at his home.  He is an elderly pot belly pig, who is still in great athletic shape. We have decided to name him Pumba as he reminds us of the pig in Lion King. Parcy greeted Pumba as he […]

Tuesday started off with Bear the pig getting a nice walk from where he was busy sleeping in the sun to the vet room.  It was going to be a very busy vet day and Bear was on the schedule.  We wanted to make sure there are no baby piggies in his future. At the […]

With warmer weather comes nice green grass for the critters to enjoy munching on.  In the front pasture we let Shadow, Parcy and Dottie out with the horses.  They really enjoyed it! We also let the sheep out, […]

Wednesday was spent getting the adult auction horses microchipped, dewormed, vaccinated, and hoof care done.  It was a long busy day and it took all day to get them done. Thursday Kirsty starting evaluating the Arabs that were surrendered the other day.  This is Diva, she is really cute but has a weird growth on […]

Monday was a very sad day as we had to say “Goodbye” to two of the auction horses.  Tawnee spent a lot of time with Granny, she was such a sweet horse.  It is so sad that someone used her up, then when she was no longer useful to them due to her old age […]

Saturday night, thanks to your donations, our rescuer was at the auction.  By the end of the auction, 14 horses were rescued!  Some of them were feeling very tired and bedraggled after the auction. First thing Sunday morning both rescue rigs were ready to hit the road. After the long drive they finally arrived at […]

Kirsty […]
