In addition to coming out and helping and feeding the horses, the troop also donated two bales of alfalfa hay, two bags of carrots and two bags of apples to the horses!  The horses enjoyed their treats very much- they still have an entire bag of apples left to eat!

Lucerne Valley, CA: Missouri Fox Trotter Needs Home

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...]
