Sanger, CA: Yearling Thoroughbred Needs Home

By

We received word that a bay yearling Thoroughbred needs a home. He has some arthritic OCD in his left shoulder, so he will not be able to be raced, but he could still be a fine pleasure horse. He is located at Old English Rancho in Sanger, CA. His owner wants to find a home for him ASAP. We were not given a name for this cute guy, but he was foaled on 2/27/14, and he is a purebred Thoroughbred, registration #1404112. Below is a picture of the horse and some x-rays of his shoulder.

Hanaeleh at Swallow’s Day Parade: Special Report from Tamahome

By

Hanaeleh participated in the Swallow's Day Parade Saturday morning. This marks the fifth year that Hanaeleh has been in the parade, and the horses and volunteers were awesome!  Thank you so much to all of those volunteers who came out and helped to carry the banner and wave to the adoring public! The Swallow's Day Parade marks the return of the swallows to San Juan Capistrano (even though they don't really "return" there anymore- but hey, a tradition is a tradition). We had a special horse … [Read more...]

The New Kitty at Hanaeleh

By

Hanaeleh is currently home to four "feral" cats: Amy, Oscar, Rex and Rascal. The original thought behind having feral cats is that we would help provide a safe place for a cat who was not tame enough to live in a home, while at the same time the cats would keep the rodent population down.  This, of course, was before The Great Treaty of Nimh, which very clearly states that "No rat or mouse shall bother a cat, nor eat the food of a cat, nor in any other way antagonize a cat. In return, cats shall … [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...]
