Sheepie Update

By

Not much to report on the sheep this week, except for the fact that Magellan has not only developed a taste for the chicken feed, meaning we now have to lock him OUT of the chicken coop, he also got continues to try to eat the horse's grain (which is bad for sheep), resulting in our placing the buckets seemingly too high out of reach. Magellan decided that this was not to be a deterrent, and balanced his head into the bucket, resulting in him teetering precariously on his hind legs with the … [Read more...]

Rescued! Jesse and three other mares!

By

About two weeks ago, Hanaeleh was contacted by a young lady who had rescued a horse that had gone lame.  While meaning well, she did not have experience with rehabilitating horses, and was talked into potentially taking her horse to a "euthanasia clinic."  She reached out to us before having her put down in the hopes that we would hopefully be able to help. Unfortunately, we were not able to get out to see the horse in time, so we put a plea on Facebook and through our rescue contacts in order … [Read more...]

Dallas' owner purchased her to keep his other horse company and now that his other … [Read more...]

It is with a heavy heart that we share with you the passing of Hope, our dear little 30 year-old Arabian mare who we rescued along with her best friend, Grace, over six years ago from a neglect situation.

Welcome Mr. Darcy to Hanaeleh! A few months ago we were told about a 9 year-old registered Friesian gelding whose owner wanted to turn him over immediately.
