BH November 8th – 11th Update
November 8th
Magic – our beautiful 15 year young Arabian stallion that will live out his life here.
As beautiful and lovable as ever – Betsy Rose.
Eva Ponko and Josh spending some time with Athena today.

One of the most wonderful places to be. Yes, I took 5 minutes out of my busy day on Friday to ride. Didn’t go far but it was very refreshing!
This is Katherine and Barbara today. Katherine is a student at UF and has been with us for 3+ years. Barb has been with us 5+ years and is on our BOD. Thank you ladies, very much, for all you do!
It’s not unusual to find the boys waiting for me at the bottom of the stairs by the office. I have to be careful so they don’t see me at the door – JoJo won’t hesitate to come up to greet me. But then the issue is getting him down safely. LOL! They are adorable – quite the pair! Jazzy is really coming out of his shell. It’s great to see!
Jazzy stood there for over ten minutes "conversing" with the sprinkler – or perhaps he was practicing Karaoke? Silly donk.
I spent 1.5 hours yesterday getting the tangles out of Magic’s mane which is naturally curly. He’s a very special horse.
I let Lily and Ebony out of their paddock today so they could run and play around the house. They had a blast!
And the boys went exploring in the mini mare’s paddock while the mini mares went out to play around the house. Triple trouble!
November 10th
Just wanted to get on here long enough to apologize for not responding to PM’s, emails, calls, etc. today – I got held up in a couple of doctor appointments in Gainesville today and didn’t get back to the farm until late. Thanks to everyone who helped us get the refill for the fly mister system at the barn – it’s been ordered!
November 11th
Mishka – he’s such a sweet horse.
All played out…
No matter how heavy the burden on your shoulders may feel – even just a few minutes with Betsy Rose will help you to feel better.
Rayo – he’s so loved!
Remember Cisco and Tia and Tess? They are loving life with their adoptive family!
Serenity and Bryce just don’t understand why they haven’t found a forever home yet. And I can’t explain it to them because I don’t understand it either. They are registered Appaloosa’s and are very nice horses. Serenity is ready for trails and Bryce is ready to be started.
We are looking for an adoptive or foster home for Amber with someone that can work with her and train her. She’s a 6 year old Tennessee Walker Horse – registered name is Truehearts Majic Starlite. She will make a fine horse for the right person. She’s just out to pasture here – she needs a home and a job. Natural horsemanship methods only. Adoption fee waived to approved home.
Thank you all for your continued love and support.
Who would like to buy a bale of hay ($15) for a horse? We need to buy a ton which should last us through the weekend. The larger paddocks just got their large 700 lb. bales but the smaller paddocks and barn horses need the smaller bales. A ton is $595. Yes, it is expensive but no, it’s not high for this area of the country. Would anyone like to sponsor a bale or more? Credits can be called directly into the hay store at 352-867-8333. Donations can be made via our PayPal account to bhfer@earthlink.net or via various methods on our website at https://bhfer.org/donate.cfm. We are a GFAS verified, all volunteer organization that operates totally from donations from the public. We do not receive funds from any local, county, state, or federal government sources. The cool temps are here and the grass is not growing – please help us keep hay before the horses. Thank you and have a wonderful day!
Sincerely,
