Hanaeleh Follies

By

The threat of the coronavirus has made things very stressful all over the world right now. We understand if you're stressed... we're a bit stressed as well. There's a saying that there's never a bad time for comedy- indeed, when things are difficult, that's when we need comedy the most. Even though we are all maintaining a safe distance of six feet or more, we are all in this together, and together we will get through these uncertain times. We hope that these little videos and the memes we … [Read more...]

SAFE! Indio, CA: 14 y/o Thoroughbred Mare Needs Home

By

The woman who owns Alli has told us that her mare has found a wonderful new home in Yucca Valley. Thank you to everyone who networked this lovely girl! (original blog post below) ---------------------------------------------- We were contacted by a woman who is looking for a home for her 14 year-old Thoroughbred mare named Alli. Alli is approximately 15.2 hands. She was never on the track. Alli has been ridden for polo and she loads, ties, gets along well with other horses, has traveled … [Read more...]

Alta Dena: Three Arabians Need Homes ASAP

By

We were contacted by another rescue who is trying to help a woman in Alta Dena. She purchased a property in which a man was keeping three Arabians- two mares and a gelding. The man abandoned the horses on her property and she doesn't know what to do. She called Animal Control but they just said that they would not help her as they were no longer taking horses and they were her problem, which was not very helpful. We don't know anything about these horses other than they need immediate help. … [Read more...]

UPDATE: Haven and Cullen’s New Foster Home

They will stay at this home until June when they go to their forever home with one of our graduates of our veterans EAC program! Before we moved them, however, we had the vet out earlier last week to give them their second set of shots. The vet said that they were looking better and verified that they were in their mid to late 20s. Other than that, she was happy with the progress both … [Read more...]

Ollie’s Sinus Infection

By

A few weeks ago we noticed that Ollie had quite a bit of snot coming out of his nose- it was reminiscent of childhood snotty noses and pretty disgusting, to be honest. We wiped the area clean and contacted the vet, who said to put him on some antihistamines for a few days as several horses seemed to … [Read More...]

Venus’ New Shoes

By

Last month we noticed that Venus was beginning to look a little tender-footed. We noticed an indication of an old abscess that had burst and some bruising on her feet. We assumed this was due to walking on the new gravel driveway, so we made sure not to let her walk on it. We also put some boots on … [Read More...]

Santa’s Special Visit to Hanaeleh’s Horses

'Twas the Saturday before Xmas and that means we had our annual Hanaeleh holiday party for all of our volunteers and their families. Javier (our former caretaker who also has a great catering business!) made the yummy food for us, which was wonderful as always! The best part was being able to sit … [Read More...]
