Happy Easter

Happy Easter Everyone!  It amazes me how many dedicated volunteers came to help do the barn chores today.  I am truly speechless with how amazing all of my volunteers are.  I could not do this without any of you guys!

Today, Rock is outside enjoying the sun eating his lunch.  I will keep everyone posted on how he progresses over the next few weeks.  We are really hoping for a speedy recovery so we can find this special boy a home. 

Everyone please check out equinedestiny.com to watch the trailer of a short film that was made about the horses of the United States.  It shows the true peril that many of our countries horses face everyday.  It is a wonderful trailer that depicts the true way horses are treated by many people across the United States.  They are throw away like trash after they are done being "useful".  It is a real eye opener for people that don't have a clue how many horses are slaughtered every year.  I constantly watch foals being loaded on slaughter trucks along with perfectly sound horses.  Hundred of horses from New Holland are purchased by dealers and kill buyers on a weekly basis and will be soon on their way to Canada and Mexico.  If you want to check out this film they will be screening it April 30th, if anyone is interested in attending please go to nyfilmvideo.com. 

Here are a few success story pictures to brighten your day on Easter!

Darla and Cadie.  Cadie adopted Darla a few months ago and is training her to be a western pleasure horse.  Darla is currently boarded at Two Cousins Farm in Northport.

Anna and Chloe.  Anna adopted Chloe about a year ago from Project Sage.  She was very green and fresh off the track.  Anna has put a lot of training into Chloe and she is now a great trail buddy!

Flint was rescued from New Holland in December and shortly there after adopt by Shana and her family.  He is now being boarded on the east end of Long Island and enjoying the good life!

Liberty was rescued from Camelot Horse Auction in 2008.  She was adopted by Denise and her family and has really blossomed into a gorgeous horse.  Here is a picture if Libby around Christmas time wearing her hat!
