Salina - Thoroughbred yearling

Salina came to us never having had much interactions with humans. Growing up outside, she had never been in a stall. Still a little leery, she is learning her new routines. Our trainer Moriah, is gently teaching her about being haltered and led; about getting brushed and picking up her feet.  This noble filly will be up for adoption to the right home soon.

Salina's dam Love Notion

This 23 old mare looked awful. Her mane all tangled, her body condition under par and she was not inclined to let anyone near her. Once at our farm however, she quickly realized that she was safe and we could be trusted. Our vet examined her, we treated her for rain rot and started her on nourishing feed and lots of good quality hay.

What a mess: Tangled mane, ribs                   Our vet Dr. Glaza is giving her an
showing and rain rot. Not very                        extensive exam. This precious mare
interested in human contact.                           is so relaxed now.                              

            

                                              

   Nothing more wonderful than to see the changes we make in a horse's life

            Honor, 2008 Thoroughbred

 Arriving at our farm as a skinny stallion, we quickly discovered that he was suffering badly from an abscessed tooth which made it extremely hard for him to eat. 
With an aggressive treatment and several follow-up visits from our vet, we could see great improvements. 
Once in better condition, Dr. Glaza gelded this handsome guy and Honor has been nothing but a Gentleman; loving the attention and care we are able to provide for him.
We will decide on his training program in the near future. This horse will be a head turner! Donations to his training would be very much appreciated.
