Hey everyone! As you can see we have some updates on our site, lots of new horses for adoption and new pictures of the horses that have been here for a few months! Let me tell you what makes the Project Sage horses different...
Our horses are in training programs with professional trainers, every horse you see on our site (that is rideable!) is in a training program. We have some wonderful trainers that donate their time to our rescue. Riders that have successfully shown all over from english to western! Currently Novel, Selina, Rascal, and Paris are all in programs to keep moving forward with their training. When you come out on a weekend you can meet with Erin, one of our amazing trainers, and she can tell you all she does with our horses. It's fabulous that our horses have the opportunity to learn and become more adoptable. When you adopt one of our horses you are adopting a horse that we have all put our heart and soul into. Every horse has the "Project Sage stamp of approval"!
We also have a fabulous farrier that we work with. In the past few months I've learned so much about the hoof and the pro's and con's of shoes vs no shoes and when pads are appropriate and so on and so forth! I'm always excited to get up close and personal and learn everything I can. From an unbalanced hoof to a huge abccess that needs to be cut out! Our rescue horses are lucky to have a great farrier on our team.
Next is our vet who lives just a few blocks from our barn. We are lucky to have him so close by whether there is a small colic or a lameness exam he is always on hand for our rescue.
So as you can see it takes an army to run a horse rescue. We have a bunch of volunteers that work day in and day out to keep our barn clean and our horses groomed! We always need more volunteers that are not afraid to get their hands dirty! We need people who can get in a paddock and scoop manure, something that I find very calming! It's that little things that make Project Sage run the way it does and the most important thing is a clean place for the horses to rehabilitate with loving people all around!
So check out our current fundraisers on the calender page and order some flowers or a sweat shirt, it's for a good cause! :)
Thanks guys, stay warm!
