15 y/o Friesian Cross Needs Home

By

We are looking to find a home for a 15 year old, 14.3 hand Friesian/QH cross. He is a very stocky boy! His name was Gabriel but his current owner calls him Alfie. She adopted him from us and her plan was to train him as a driving horse, but he just is not comfortable driving alone. He has been doing well in arena work and has even done some low jumping (we would rather he not go to a home where he will be jumped a lot, however, as he has a shoulder injury that crops up when he is worked too … [Read more...]

UPDATE: Garnet, August 2021

By

It's been a few weeks since Garnet came to Hanaeleh, but her breathing was so bad when she came that we had the vet out to see if there was anything else we could do to help keep her comfortable. Her previous owner's vet had prescribed some medication to administer once a week, but we were hopeful that perhaps there was something else we could do. The vet came out and assessed Garnet- she confirmed that it sounds like she has COPD, as there's not much air movement in her lungs, but she was … [Read more...]

Noelle and Venus Become Friends

By

It's been a few months since we moved Noelle up near Venus, but the girls have quickly become best friends! After a few weeks of being neighbors with Venus, Noelle started yelling for her and getting upset when we took her away from the stall, even though she had her buddy Rio to hang out with. Venus doesn't seem to care much if Noelle leaves, however, and Noelle has no issues when we take her away from her stall and leave Venus alone... we've all had relationships like that. The girls seemed … [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 … [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 … [Read More...]
