Mamma Mare Bear, Lover Boy Bear

---

"This is a mare and one month old foal that a good friend of ours, Shellie, saved out of the kill pen at the feed lot the end of last summer. Shellie did not want them to be loaded onto the death truck, so she brought them here to us. The mare is so ill from being thin, with a body score of one, and having an infected face wound that our Vet said that she would have been dead in a few hours if she did not receive care. We named her Mamma Mare Bear because she was such a good mother, still loving and gentle with her foal even though she was dying. The little colt was named Lover Boy Bear. As you can see he is just the cutest thing."

Holly saved this Paint Gelding

---

This paint gelding was saved by our friend Holly last summer. Once she got him home she discovered he had a swollen hock and should only be used for a child or a very small person. He was brought here to see if we could find a home for him. He was very shy and did not like to be touched. We only had him for a couple of months and he met our Bethanne. Within the month Bethanne adopted this Paint gelding. Now, he is quiet and extremely gentle. Jesse the Paint horse is happy. He just needed his right person to find him and give him a loving home.

California Mustang

---

This mare is a California Mustang and she was also saved by our friend Shellie. Shellie believed that the mare was just too beautiful to be loaded onto the kill truck. She is unbroken and quite wild. I could hardly touch this mare and I tried and tried to make friends with her. Then she met our friend Bethanie and you could see the mare relax. Bethanie had her hands all over that horse. It is amazing when the horse meets their right person. Bethanie named this mare Shiloh.
 
Bethanie is a disabled Veteran and we honor her for her service to our beloved country. Jesse, Shiloh and Bethanie now live together in love, forever.

Jimmy and Becky Taylor

---

Jimmy Taylor and his horse Black spend time together. Each of them benefits from their relationship. Jimmy says that being with Black brings him peace of mind. He feels calmer and happier and that he actually feels better physically after a visit with this big, black horse. Black the horse, now called Black Taylor, has a purpose and he knows it. After being with Jimmy he puffs around here with his head high and a new spring in his step.

 

Becky Taylor likes to spend time with Little Bit Quillan, one of our orphans. The first time Little Bit met Becky they formed a special bond. This bond was instrumental in the orphaned foal’s physical and emotional recovery.  Becky says, “The horses and the Veterans need to be taken care of. That’s important.”

 

Jimmy Taylor is a Disabled Veteran, we thank him for his service to our country. It is our privilege to know him.  

  

Al and Queenie

---

When Al met this black mare there was an instant bond between them. Softly nickering, the mare moved quickly to close the distance between her self and Al and it has been this way ever since. The mare had made it out of the feed lot to safety but in the process she lost her name, we just called her Black Mare. Al gave the name Queenie to her and it fits her perfectly. Al and Queenie spend time together often. Al has MS and she says that being with Queenie and Strawberry makes her feel physically and emotionally stronger.

Al was also the first to be able to touch this traumatized colt named Strawberry. Al’s kind hand and loving heart has helped heal him.  

 

Al is one of our Veterans and we thank her for her service.
