Riverside, CA: Two Arabian Horses Need Homes

By

We received a call from a woman who has two Arabians who need homes. She is no longer able to ride due to age/health issues and is planning on moving out of state and cannot take them with her. (photos below) Fancy- 15-16 y/o Mare Fancy is an Arabian mare. She has not been ridden consistently for the past three years, but a trainer did ride her about six months ago. She was the family horse and was ridden by the owner and her children. She is a bit underweight, and the owner has started adding … [Read more...]

Immunovet EQ

By

Hanaeleh participated in a short trial, feeding Immunovet EQ fermented wheat germ extract (FWGE) to six of our horses for 45 days. It comes in a powder form, and was easy to add to their grain. Because it is fermented, it is much more stable than other wheat germ options, and has a longer shelf life. It also comes in a specially-designed canister that helps to keep it fresh. We were especially impressed with the benefits of Immunovet EQ, including improving GI issues and decreasing … [Read more...]

Winds and Fires in Los Angeles

By

L.A. Fires Our hearts have been heavy in watching the destruction of the fires in L.A. and seeing the loss of both property and of life. We know firsthand that evacuations are incredibly frightening and stressful, and the aftermath of an evacuation can be as stressful as the evacuation itself. So many people and animals are displaced and their world has been turned upside down. We have fielded several phone calls from people who were looking for placement for their horses. By now most people … [Read more...]

Andromeda’s NEW, New Shoes

By

We shared with you a few months ago the story of Andromeda's new wooden shoes. She needed these shoes because she had foundered before she came to Hanaeleh, which was likely one of the reasons she ended up with a killer buyer. Thankfully we were able to rescue Andromeda and she was doing well just with boots, but she had another founder event that was so severe that she required a special wooden shoe in order to recover. The wooden shoes were made for her by Greg Perez, a local farrier … [Read more...]

Ollie’s Sinus Infection

By

A few weeks ago we noticed that Ollie had quite a bit of snot coming out of his nose- it was reminiscent of childhood snotty noses and pretty disgusting, to be honest. We wiped the area clean and contacted the vet, who said to put him on some antihistamines for a few days as several horses seemed to … [Read More...]

Venus’ New Shoes

By

Last month we noticed that Venus was beginning to look a little tender-footed. We noticed an indication of an old abscess that had burst and some bruising on her feet. We assumed this was due to walking on the new gravel driveway, so we made sure not to let her walk on it. We also put some boots on … [Read More...]
