Silver Belle, Amadeus, Baby Ray, Legacy, Aaleyah Belle – all running and playing.
The return trip. Legacy pretty much always let Baby Ray run ahead of him when they would play – like he was big brother.
Six out of eight legs off the ground!
A little one on one time with Baby Ray before leaving.
This is one of the hardest things to do – letting them go. But this is what we want for all of them. Baby Ray is at wonderful foster home where he will get training, lots of TLC, and this will likely lead him to a forever home. Baby Ray will always be a part of us, a part of the rescue, a part of many human hearts.
And now a trip down memory lane…
Our darling, brave, strong, lovable Baby Ray. He came home in our mini-van. Malnourished, blind, and very sad.

He was so depressed – he wanted his mommy. So, we found her and brought her home. Baby Ray found peace and contentment and grew stronger.

Then we raced against time to get him stronger (mentally and physically) for surgery – his odds were better if it could be done before he was 6 months old.

Arriving at UF for his initial examination. He was a very brave boy at the hospital for his surgery.

Baby Ray and Legacy’s first time playing together – December 2009. And their first birthday celebration in May 2010!

And they continued to grow and have fun together.

Still growing! And their first lesson in loading – they actually went for a ride around the block – Legacy was in front.

And then there were the water games – they both love water! Baby Ray would often try to get Legacy up when he wanted to nap.

Our baby boys have grown up. While Baby Ray is now at a foster home getting lots of TLC and training, Legacy is still here and is in line for training. I know when the time is right they will both make their forever humans very proud. Their original owners had thrown them away like they were trash. Although they arrived here separately as babies, each was alone and very sick from neglect, they never gave up and we never gave up on them. They overcame all odds. They are precious and priceless and always will be – I will always be very proud of them.

And I thank all of you for being there to support us and what we do – helping those that can’t help themselves. Miracles do happen – God bless you all!

Baby Ray Video and a Paso Fino
Well, take look at this short video. It will make you feel good – every horse deserves their own little girl!
Yesterday was her birthday and look who arrived yesterday afternoon!
[youtube http://youtube.com/w/?v=r_DfoQrV83Q&feature=related]
This young lady and her family will be taking very good care of Baby Ray. They will train him and help us to find him a great forever home.
Also – I’m going to look at a 15 year old Paso Fino gelding this am that I got a call on. He needs a home. I’ll know how good, or bad, his condition is once I get there. Will report when I get back. Would there be anyone interested in a Paso gelding?
Haley and Harley Need Prayers – 01/22/12
01/22/12
I’d like to ask for prayers for little Haley and for Harley. When cleaning Harley’s eyes this morning I saw something new in the corner and felt the need to call Dr. Ryan out to look at it. He took pictures back to the hospital – I should hear back from him tomorrow morning.
And little Haley isn’t doing well. Dr. Jackson was out yesterday and treated her. She definitely has neurological issues but we don’t know why. It could be trauma (it’s thought she may have flipped over backwards) or it could be an autoimmune issue or it could be both. It was hard to get good pictures yesterday – we had the windows in the barn closed. The weather was horrible – it was cold and rainy all day long. Haley pretty much stands in one place all day and looks like she feels bad. I don’t like seeing her this way.
We’re going to have to move Kami to another paddock tomorrow – she is just too much for Haley right now and is causing her stress which isn’t helping. Her momma is sick and doesn’t feel like playing.
Please keep Haley and Harley in your prayers.
