“JoJo – who’s that?? He sort of looks like you and me! Come on, let’s go introduce ourselves and welcome him to the rescue!”
“Guess what, Jazzy – I think it’s a Mini Me! Whatcha think? I know there’s only one me, but does he look like me?”
“Mommy Theresa, does this little guy look like me? Even if he does, there’s only one me, right? Is he going to stay? Jazzy and I think he really wants a home of his own!”
Mini Me JoJo is adorable! He even likes to help out in the office! He would make a great addition to any family.
JoJo is too big to come into the office now, but when he used to do so, he was very helpful. And whenever I worked on the computer, he asked a bazillion questions. He’s a hoot!
JoJo’s Mini Me is looking forward to having his own human family soon. He wants a home before the holidays, which will be here before we know it!

LUCY’S BELL, SILLY DONKEYS, & BEAUTY
October 18th…
Thanks to Bonnie, Lucy now has a bell that she wears so that Sawyer can better keep track of her. Sawyer is an elderly pony with greatly diminished vision. He often gets upset when he can’t find his BFF, Lucy. Thank you Bonnie!
October 21st…
Even in the early morning sunrise, JoJo and Jazzy play.
“Good morning, Mommy Theresa! Come on, let’s get the day going! It’s Friday you know. And lookie – me and Jazzy already put our fly masks on!”
October 22nd…
Beauty is always beautiful – even in her flymask.
Our first hay purchase of the fall season. Very glad it’s available but not happy with the extra expense.

“YOU MAKE A LIFE BY WHAT YOU GIVE”
September 29th, 2016
We are very thankful for all of our volunteers near and far – they are priceless!
Barbara drives over two hours almost every other weekend to come to the farm! Thank you Barbara and Kevin for your love and support!
Betsy Rose did well this weekend despite the heat which was horrid. The injury to her left hip area and leg is slowly improving. We had just taken her out of her sling from a good nap – she was ready to go out and graze. As soon as Barb put on her grazing muzzle, she was gone – totally reenergized!
Jenny gave Spirit a much needed bath. I am so happy that Spirit will soon have a life outside of the little paddock where she is now living. She will be going to her adoptive home in a few days!.
Lois and Mishka having a talk about his bath which he really enjoyed. He’s as sweet as he looks.
When you meet Mishka up close and personal, you then realize how big he really is! We’re all really glad that he’s just a big teddy bear. He towers over Elizabeth and me!
We’re happy to have new volunteers Emma, Sharon, and Karen join our team! Sharon’s husband, Lou, volunteers too!
Time is precious and every minute volunteers give to the rescue is very much appreciated. We couldn’t do what we do without them! Many thanks to all volunteers near and far – you make a difference!
This is Sharon and Karen giving Ruby a much needed bath. I don’t know who gets dirtier – JoJo or Ruby!

“IT WASN’T ME” Says the Little Donkey!
September 21st…
JoJo was looking for anyone who would play ball today.
Many thanks to Judy for clipping Sawyer again – he feels so much better and he looks great! Judy is Timmie and Foxy’s adoptive mom. Judy has clipped Sawyer a couple of times this year – he gets pretty shaggy as he has cushings. We’re so blessed that he’s still with us – he had some bad seizures a few months ago and it wasn’t looking good. But he didn’t give up and he’s doing great!
Two donkeys on a mission which was most likely looking for JoJo’s mask!
September 24th…
Elizabeth and Bri surprised us and came out to spend the day! We had a great time – it’s always wonderful to see them. Waylon really enjoyed some extra attention from Bri.
“Mommy Theresa it wasn’t me! That big hole dug by the gate – that was Jazzy’s doing! I told him not to do it but he wouldn’t listen. I tried putting all the dirt back in the hole. And then I rolled around and around to flatten it out so nobody would notice and so Jazzy wouldn’t get in trouble but there’s not enough dirt. I don’t know where it went!”
I wonder if JoJo realizes that he’s wearing the missing dirt?!
An Obstacle Challenge & More!
We apologize for the delay in this and the next couple of updates that didn’t go out on time.
September 16th…
Some wonderful news to share about Spirit – she’s ready to go to her new forever home! As soon as we raise funds for her journey to Oklahoma, she will be on her way! Her wonderful adopter has experience with blind horses and the perfect pasture awaiting her arrival! Spirit will even have her very own donkey friend!
Everyone loves Lucy! We appreciate Foxy and Timmie’s mom, Judy, volunteering her time to hold horses for the farrier.
September 17th…
Poor Jingle! The equine complained that it wasn’t fair that the bovine did not have to wear a fly mask. So……
September 18th…
Beauty’s Haven participated in the Equine Trail Sports Obstacle Course event at Black Prong this past weekend where our wonderful volunteers served breakfast and lunch.
All proceeds from the breakfast and lunch went to Beauty’s Haven and $400 was raised to help the horses! Many thanks to ETS, Black Prong, our awesome volunteers, and everyone that made this happen!
September 19th…
Have you ever seen JoJo with his ears pinned back? Oh my! What do you think was going on?
September 20th…
Magic under the morning moon!
A DAY WITH ANIMAL WARRIORS
September 10th, 2016
Members from Animal Warriors spent a good part of the day helping out – we got some projects done and some of the horses even got a bath! Animal Warriors is a group of like minded individuals from all walks of life who share a common goal of helping animals with active volunteer groups. All of the horses really enjoyed the extra attention.
Aaleyah Belle – there’s that famous tongue doing what it does best!
I think Aaleyah Belle slimed everyone!
Bouie and Frodo got a much needed bath.
JoJo opted to lead the group on a tour. He’s such a big little helper! He even kept his flymask on!
JoJo is always the little charmer!
Mishka got lots of attention – he’s a really big guy. His name suits him well – it means “teddy bear.”
Mishka also got a bath which he truly enjoyed!
Animal Warriors is a non-profit organization – they have a Facebook page and you can visit them on their website. We truly appreciate their help and hope that they come back again!

I’d say everyone is happy!
Many thanks to everyone that supported our helping Daisy and Mocha. It’s only because of your support that we are able to do what we do.
BETSY & SAWYER’S EYES & OTHER HAPPENINGS
Dr. Mangan also examined Betsy Rose’s eyes on the day that he came out to check Penny and Spirit. Betsy has lost vision in her right eye over the course of the past several years while her left eye is showing degenerative changes.
Betsy Rose is so cute and didn’t mind her exam at all.
I wonder what she was whispering in Dr. Mangan’s ear?
“Lunch please!”
