Update: Quixote

By

We had a bit of a scare with Quixote this past weekend. When we arrived at the barn that morning, he looked good, and ate his breakfast without a problem. We exercised him, and while he was lazy (as usual), he still looked fine. A few hours later, however, when we went to give him his grain, he refused to eat it, and instead went to the back of his stall and rolled a few times. Sometimes he will lie down, and he after a short nap will come up and eat his grain, but he was breathing heavily and … [Read more...]

Update: Haven and Cullen- May 2020

By

Haven and Cullen were moved a few months ago to a more permanent foster home in Orange Park Acres. They are doing very well, so we thought we would share a little update with them! They are currently being cared for by one of our board members, Kelley, and her group of mentees who she is training for Equine Assisted Coaching. Their original foster mom, Debbie K., also goes up and visits them regularly and works with them! The mentees have started calling them Bonnie and Clyde because they are … [Read more...]

Ranch Renovation: Hanaeleh’s Unplanned Rebuilding

By

When Hanaeleh moved to our current facility about 10 years ago, there were a handful of pipes and shelters left on the property from the owner that we were able to utilize. They weren't in the best condition, but they were useable for the time being. Over the years, however, we have been able to change out the older pipes for newer ones. The only exception, however, was the shelter that covered Ulysses', Quixote's and Lou Dillon's stalls. There were two 24' shelters that were joined together, so … [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...]
