Mr. MacGregor’s Garden

By

We have noticed that there have been a few thieves in the "Reno Memorial Garden" over the past few weeks.  Although evidence first pointed to Phillip and Magellan, the sheep have professed their innocence, the bite mark tests have been inconclusive. Another, darker, more ominous presence has been seen around the garden as well.  Some call him "Demon" or "Ghost," although only a brief snapshot has been taken of this elusive thief.  Perhaps he is a cousin of the rare Sasquatch?  Perhaps we … [Read more...]

Update: Thousand Oaks, CA: TB scheduled to be euthanized is SAFE!

Over 500 people e-mailed the owner when this post was made public!  Thank you to all who helped save this guy! … [Read more...]

Update: SJC, CA: Dallas- Arabian mare who needs home

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. Grace sadly passed last year in October, and we were uncertain at the time how Hope would do … [Read More...]

Welcome Mr. Darcy! 9 year-old Registered Friesian Gelding

By

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. We usually network these types of horses, but because of the timing involved, we ended up taking him in at Hanaeleh and named him Mr. Darcy … [Read More...]
