Good Morning Everyone.
I do hope this finds everyone well, this fine Wednesday. I have been out taking a few pictures and am waiting for them to upload so I can post them for everyone.
I was looking at each horse and thinking where would they be now if we did not take them in. We often hear, don't you wish you had more land for them? My response is, "of course we do" but we have been operating for almost nine years now and I have to accept that as of right now this is what we can afford. More land does not necessarily mean more horses, because you must be able to continue to give them quality care and food they so justly deserve. Individual care and getting to know each one is very important as well. I do know when one is off and can get right on it. So many of our horses cannot romp and stomp with the football team due to their disabilities ie., blind, leg deformities etc., and age plays a huge part in it as well, as I do not want our older horses competing for food...that is not fair to them in the least bit. They all get groomed, even if it takes a few days it gets done. For those that are able, they do get turned out with the Football team for a few hours, but after that you will see them standing at the gate ready to return to their home. Maybe, someday we will have the means to purchase more land, but for now this is what it is.
