Aaleyah Belle is doing great!
June 4th…
Peek-a-boo! So thankful that Sawyer is still with us. He gave us all quite a scare with his epileptic seizures a couple of weeks ago. He’s a wise old soul who is as kind as can be.
June 5th…
Remember when Betsy Rose received a new gift/friend named Bunny? She has so many friends! Right now, they are all tucked in as the storms are coming.
Remember the day last August when some of the long ears (and Foxy) gathered around – from big to small? I miss Matilda and am so thankful for the time we had with her. Mocha and Daisy are looking for a forever home as pets – they are adorable. And little Foxy – she’s loving life with her mom at their forever home with Bill and Judy
June 6th…
Winds have started to pick up. We are hunkering down and I may be offline much of the time. We are in the path of Tropical Storm Colin.
Betsy Rose got to go out between the bands of rain today. She’s all tucked in her stall now as JoJo, Jazzy, and CaryLou keep her company. The winds are up. The rains are coming down. This needs to be over.
June 7th…
Calling it a day here. We’re still a bit tired from all of the activity from Tropical Storm Colin, even though it wasn’t too very bad. Ruby and Cookie wouldn’t allow Little E and Peaches in the shelter so we had to move horses around – it’s just been exhausting. But no complaints – everyone is safe and there is no property damage! But now, I hear there may be another storm on the horizon! I hope that’s a rumor!
June 8th…
Remember Montana?
A call to authorities from someone who saw a thin, sad, and not so healthy horse chained to a shed led us to this sweet boy. After a couple of weeks of driving by, seeing his health continually decline, they called authorities. Of course, we would take him. He recovered nicely and is now living a life of luxury. Montana and others are living the good life now thanks to help from supporters! We couldn’t do it without you!
Her registered name was Point to Ponder. We lovingly called her “My Girl.” She was a young, brave, and beautiful TB that was raced 12 times in 8 months before coming to Beauty’s Haven. I’ll let the short video tell the rest of the story. This was a case that reminded us that sometimes doing what is right means letting go – it may be the greatest gift of love there is….
We’ve helped many horses – all with stories we could share. And all of the help we’ve provided to them was made possible because of our village of supporters. We operate totally from donations from the public. There are many more equines that need help. We know you can’t always donate – but now there is a free and easy way to help the horses!
We are competing in a contest to win $10K for the horses and we are in 3rd place! It’s a free and easy way to help if you use Facebook! Please help us win this by voting once everyday through July 31st. And what would help, very much, is if you share it out to family and friends and ask them to vote and share as well – this needs to go viral! Post it on multiple media platforms – and ask others to vote and share! Instructions are below and here is the link to vote. Link to vote: http://wshe.es/65VvE5f1

Little Things – Can You Believe It?
June 18th, 2016
Not even a week old and Whiskers wants his own cell phone!
June 19th…
Sophie and Betsy Rose enjoying the grass after the storms.
June 20th…

June 21st…
Remember when Pal Sal from Texas told Foxy all about cutting horses? The next thing we knew, Foxy was trying out her moves! Watching this short video will totally make you smile! We knew then that Foxy would be good at anything she put her mind to!
Sometimes little things are really huge! I got on the Internet yesterday and look what popped up!?
“Injured Woman Spends Her Second Chance at Life Rehabilitating Horses” by Rebecca Landman.
I had no idea it was being written/published! The stories at littlethings.com are so uplifting – I was truly amazed to find us there! Please share with your family and friends! Let’s raise awareness about horse rescue and the current “Life is Short – Make a Splash” contest we are in 2nd place for to try to win $10K for the horses! We just need your daily vote through July 31st and for you to share out daily – it’s free and easy!
A Baby Longears Doing The Cricket Dance?
June 17th, 2016
Whiskers got lots of attention today from Auntie Bri …..
…….and Auntie Elizabeth . He’s so sweet.
Well, it appears that my selfie skills still need improving!
June 18th…
“Yummy! I love my milk!”
So now you know how he got his name. 🙂
A “Cricket Dance” natural! Baby Whiskers had a great night and was full of himself this morning! There must be something in his milk that we don’t know about!
We appreciate Kylie staying with him last night. We will be on babysitting duty for the next few nights – at least until he’s comfy. I hope his momma is relieved to see how well he is adjusting. Please watch the short video which was taken this morning of Baby Whiskers doing the ‘Cricket Dance” and for those of you who don’t know what a “Cricket Dance” is, well, just watch!
Please remember to vote as we are slowly closing the gap between first and second place! One vote every 24 hours through July 31st may enable us to win this contest! And don’t forget to share amongst family and friends as well. Winning $10K for the horses would help so much. We have never been fortunate enough to win anything close to this amount. Even though it is a constant and exhausting struggle trying to raise money and take care of the horses all day long, it is truly worth every moment, knowing that we are making a difference in the life of each and every equine that enters through our gates. We are Beauty’s Haven Farm and Equine Rescue, a place where ‘Life begins, again!’
Since Bob had his heart attack, things have been a bit more challenging, but thankfully, he’s slowly getting better. However, more of my time is spent working outside which leaves very little opportunity to be at the computer or in the office to plan fundraising activities and elicit donations which have gone down dramatically. We are a small grassroots organization which consists of Bob and I who work 24/7/365, plus a few very special volunteers. We normally have volunteer help approximately six hours a day, a few days a week. On some days, however, we have no help at all. So please believe me when I say, every vote helps!
Thank you for your support!

We Are Trophy Line’s “RESCUE OF THE MONTH!”
June 9th…
I love it when we have good news to share! We are Trophy Line Manely Hair Products “Rescue of the Month!” We have been using their products for years and they are the absolute best! We use the shampoo, detangler, and conditioner and they are amazing! They are long lasting and work wonders!
Please click here which will take you to the page where you can learn more about how you can help the horses through their company. Consider giving their products a try – I’m serious when I say the products work wonders! If you don’t have horses or a dog, you can use the products on humans, too, or perhaps consider buying some to donate to the rescue! I know the horses at the rescue could use some – especially the detangler! Thank you Trophy Line!
Peaches trying to wish herself into fitting in the golf cart. lol
I just love to hear the slurpie sound of Betsy Rose eating!
Sawyer and his best friend, Lucy. Sawyer has not had any more seizures!
Our little long ears, Daisy and her BFF, Mocha, are adorable mini donks looking for a forever home as pets.
June 10th…
Jingle wants to wish everyone a Happy Friday. Just look at those ears! Our baby is growing up much too quickly!
Silly Daisy.
Solace was an older stud that walked away from an illegal backyard slaughter operation in south Florida. He was skin on bones which is likely why he was able to walk away.
Solace made an amazing recovery, but in the end, we lost him to cancer. But the time we had with him was so special – he knew he mattered and that he was loved.
Solace’s rehab was made possible due to the generosity of our wonderful village of supporters. We are not funded by local, state, or Federal funds. We operate totally from donations. If you would like to contribute, you may do so via various means on our website: www.bhfer.org or via PayPal: bhfer@earthlink.net.
Please also remember to vote every 24 hours through July 31st to help us win $10K which would enable us to assist other horses like Solace. It’s free and easy! And it would help even more if you would share with family and friends and ask them to vote and share as well. You do have to have a Facebook account to vote.
Baby Long Ears on the Loose!
June 7th, 2016
What was the first thing JoJo did the first time he was turned out around the house when he was a baby? Watch this short video to find out – we hope it makes you smile! Just watch!
It was a long rainy and windy night with Tropical Storm Colin coming through but we got through ok. I hope everyone else did too. We really need help with hay – would anyone like to buy a bale? Even part of a bale? No amount is too small and every donation is greatly appreciated.
Each bale is approximately $18 and we need 21 bales = $378. We also need a few bales of coastal which are $7 each = $49. A combined total of $427. The horses would truly appreciate it – so would us humans.
We also need your help to win $10K for the horses. It’s free and easy – PLEASE vote today and everyday through July 31st and then share and ask family and friends to vote for us too! Sharing out on various media channels, making this go viral, is the ONLY way we can win this. http://wshe.es/65VvE5f1
We don’t receive any local, state, or Federal funds – we operate totally from donations which are tax deductible. Our PayPal address is bhfer@earthlink.net and there are other ways to donate that you can find on our website at www.bhfer.org. If you can help please mark your donation for “Hay”. Thank you.
We Are Currently In Tropical Storm Colin’s Direct Path

Betsy Rose’s Wish
June 5th, 2016
Help Betsy Rose’s June 14, 2016 birthday wish come true! It doesn’t cost you a thing! We ask that you please vote once each day through July 31st to help us win $10K for the horses. And please – share out and ask family and friends to vote too.
We need your vote daily – and your friends and family! We operate totally from donations. We do not receive any local, state, or federal funds.
JoJo and Jazzy’s Best Day!
June 4th, 2016
How do you get ADHD donkeys to stop long enough to pay attention? Just watch! Guaranteed to make you smile! Want to spread the smiles? It’s free and easy – PLEASE today and everyday through July 31st and share and ask family and friends to vote for Beauty’s Haven Farm and Equine Rescue to help win $10,000 for the horses! And ask them to share and ask their friends to share and vote too. Sharing out, making this go viral with others, is the ONLY way we can win the contest!
The stress that comes with what we do is high, constantly, due to the amount of funds it takes to do what we do – many horses (and donks and whatever else comes into our path) need help. The rewards are great seeing the animals recover and find their forever home. Or, in some cases, live out their life here – horses like our little Betsy Rose that are too frail and have special needs. It takes a Village! Please help us to help more like JoJo and Jazzy – they were both orphans when they came to us. JoJo and Jazzy asked me to share this video with you in hopes it will make you smile and hopefully vote today and everyday through July 31st.
So many people say they love what we do – and we appreciate that but we need your support in this effort. Please help us do this – for the horses. Sharing and asking others to vote daily, and share, is going to be key. Thank you – have a blessed day.
PS – we do not receive any local, state, or Federal funds. We operate totally from donations.

In Memory of Eilian
June 2nd, 2016
Today’s voting to win $10K for the horses will done be in memory of Eilian. There are many cases I don’t post about because there is enough sadness on the Internet but I think it’s important for supporters to see how funds help horses and what we do. And, perhaps another horse can be helped in some way by sharing our experiences. Eilian’s suffering started long before we got the call about him back in late summer, 2013. I found him unable to get up and with bones scattered in his filthy paddock – proof of other animals that had died. A skull only a few feet from where he lay.
I can’t imagine what Eilian had witnessed there over time. Did he wonder if he be the next victim? Did he wish death would come quickly to release him of his suffering? Did he wonder what he’d done to deserve what was happening to him?
Dr. Ryan Meeks did everything he could – we did our best.
After hours of doing all we could, the look in Eilian’s beautiful and proud Arabian eyes said it all – he knew and he understood there were no options but release. Dr. Meeks helped Eilian to Rainbow Bridge.
The only good that came out of this was that in Eilian’s last few hours, he knew love, and he wasn’t alone. It broke my heart and I know Eilian saw it in the tears that I couldn’t hold back – tears that told him that he really was loved and that he did matter. Tears that said I was sorry, and ashamed, for how the human race had failed him. I kissed him one last time and promised him I’d see him at the Bridge.
What we do takes a heavy toll. It never gets any easier. Dr. Meeks and I both had very heavy hearts that day. But if it wasn’t for support from our Village, we wouldn’t be able to help horses like Eilian, no matter what the outcome.
We were able to help Eilian, even thought it wasn’t the outcome we wanted, only because of help from our supporters. One key thing that will enable us to win this contest for the horses is everyone voting and sharing daily – reaching out to family and friends and asking them to vote and to share as well. Sharing will make a ton of difference! I truly believe we can do this. I believe.
Vote here: http://wshe.es/65VvE5f1. They will only let you vote once every 24 hours – it’s very important that you try to vote as close to the same time each day. Please – help make a difference for horses like Eilian.
Thank you for your support.
