Betsy Rose Birthday Fundraiser, with Swag!

“Don’t give up just because of the obstacles. Regardless of what obstacles face you, just keep going! Go through, go around, or go over or under – but never give up!”

On June 14, 2013, a special little mare found her way to Beauty’s Haven and planted herself deep inside our heart and soul. She was literally at death’s door, but it wasn’t her time – God knew she had work to do on this earth and entrusted us with her care. She guided us on an incredible journey which led us to the realization that love truly is the most powerful spiritual force that exists. And that kind of love can lead to miracles. We accomplished what should have been impossible and ventured into a realm of supernatural wonder with Betsy Rose. She taught us perseverance, courage, compassion, patience, wisdom, to never give up, and to believe. You can learn more about Betsy Rose, including the day that she arrived, by viewing her story on our Blog.

In Celebration of Betsy Rose’s birthday this year, and to help support the horses in our care, we are offering a Deluxe Cotton Tote Bag, filled to the brim with Betsy Rose themed items which will most assuredly make your heart sing!

Included in the Tote Bag are the following items:

  • Magnetic Note Pad – 8 ½ x 3 ½, 50 sheets
  • Two Note Cards – 5 ½ x 4 ¼, vertical fold, blank inside
  • Christmas Gift Tags – 2 packs of 25/each
  • Mug – 11 oz
  • Key Ring

Starting immediately, for each suggested donation of $5 that is designated for “Betsy’s Raffle,” you will receive one chance to become the lucky recipient of this wonderful Tote Bag. Just click the button below!

A name will be selected at Beauty’s Haven Farm and Equine Rescue, Inc., located in Morriston, FL, on 21 June 2020, at 6:00pm local time.

Thank you for your love and support!

Mini Me JoJo is adorable! He even likes to help out in the office! He would make a great addition to any family.

JoJo Mini Me 4

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!

Babies JoJo and Kiana, Betsy Rose, and Many More!

Friday, June 27th, 2014

Finally! He’s got it figured out! No more 2 am wakeups! Go JoJo!

Take your donkey to work day! He’s a good helper!

A bittersweet update on Kiana. The family that fosters Bella has been coming to spend time with Kiana over the past few weeks and they have totally fallen in love with her and Kiana looks forward to their visits. Kiana is doing great – she’s more active and independent each day. We’ve been turning her out with the boys to play with because she’s just become too energetic for Betsy Rose. Kiana likes to run and kick and play like babies should – and it’s a wonderful and warm sight to see! Sometimes, we lock up the mini’s and donkeys that stay around the house and let Betsy Rose and Kiana out together and Betsy Rose will run with Kiana too. But I won’t risk Betsy Rose out with most of the others – she is too fragile. Her hearing and sight are not great and she startles easy. Betsy is fine about Kiana spending time out with the young ones – she doesn’t fret nor does she get anxious when Kiana is out of her sight. Betsy is a wise healer of sorts and will be here to help future arrivals. I think this was her destiny and she knows it. I thank God for her each and every day.

I assure you that nobody could love Betsy Rose or Kiana and care more about their welfare than we do.  This decision wasn’t a quick one – it’s taken some time, observation, and prayers but Kiana is ready for her forever home and we love her enough to allow her to go – she deserves this. Jody home schools her sons and there is someone home around the clock.  They have a mare with a baby that is about Kiana’s age.  Their farm is beautiful and it isn’t far from the rescue. They will keep us updated.  This is never easy.  But this is what we do – we must in order to make room for others that need help. Jody and her family will be here again tomorrow to spend more time with Kiana.  We have other visitors coming tomorrow too – it’s going to be busy!

Kiana palled around with Lucy a bit this afternoon. It was so hot and humid today, the boys didn’t even run and play. We have 3 sets of visitors coming tomorrow – I sure hope and pray the weather is a bit kinder than today.

Kiana has had a growth spurt. She got a hooficure yesterday. She’s also starting to get some needed muscles from running and playing with the mini’s and donkeys.

Saturday, June 28th

“JoJo it’s time for you to go back in your room now. The morning sun is out and Kiana wants to come out for awhile.”

“Ok Betsy Rose. I’m ready for a nap anyway. I helped mommy Theresa and Kiley with morning barn chores while you and Kiana had breakfast. It’s gonna feel like 106 today – we’re all going to bake!”

It was a very busy day today – lots of visitors and smiles! I love to see others interact with the horses and donkeys!

Roxy bathed a few horses including Serenity. I know they all loved it – the heat and humidity were horrible. Serenity and her brother, Bryce, are looking for a forever home.

Aaleyah Belle, Sisco, and Victoria.

This is Valerie Goldsmith and Ted meeting our little Betsy Rose.

Jody and her family will post updates on Kiana. Its so hard to let them go. We spend days and nights helping them to heal mentally and physically – we love them all dearly. We love them enough to let them go when the time and circumstances are right.

Kiana got to spend time with her adoptive family. She just eats up the extra attention. You certainly can’t tell she got a bath 2 days ago. LOL

Is this not simply adorable? This is Violet visiting with JoJo. Violet’s 3rd birthday is next weekend – happy birthday Violet! I enjoyed meeting you and your mom and dad! Thank you Ashley and Lyle!

Pistol and Oscar – what a pair they are! They are both ready for their forever home and it would be simply amazing if they went together – they are so very bonded. Donkeys have been known to grieve deeply when they lose their best friend – I don’t want that to happen.

Baby Ray got a much needed bath and some playtime with Kylie Chapman today.  He’s a stinker! He got a hooficure too.  Baby Ray is also looking for a forever home.

A VERY SPECIAL FUNDRAISER!

A one of a kind offer! For our latest fundraiser, we are offering a lovely Betsy Rose & Kiana 16” x 16” pillow!  A suggested donation of $5 for each chance may be forwarded via our donate page: theresa. Please designate your donation, ‘Betsy Rose & Kiana Pillow.’  The winning name will be selected in Morriston, Florida, on July 15, 2014 at 6:00 pm EDT.  All proceeds will be applied to the needs of the Beauty’s Haven Horses.

Sincerely,

Theresa

Orphan Baby Mini Donk JoJo, Kiana, Betsy Rose, Harvey, Oscar & Pistol

June 24th, 2014

Meet our late incoming arrival last night – a few day old mini orphan donkey. I named him JoJo. He’s the result of irresponsible breeding. He has learned to drink from a bottle and he’s gotten really good at it – thankfully. I need to get going… – something happened with our dishwasher and the kitchen was flooded this morning. I’ve been on my knees with the Rainbow vacuum for what seems like hours – we have wood laminate flooring.
image0021

June 25th

JoJo has a couple of nodules at his left eye that we’ll be keeping a close eye on. We are still waiting on his blood work to come back. He’s a good boy.

image0041

JoJo was vetted this morning by Dr. Julia Simonson. She thinks he’s about 7 – 10 days old. We’ll have his blood work back this evening. He’s doing ok and has a great appetite (thankfully). Around his eyes are so sunburned – he’s got pink everything. Does anyone know where we could get a tiny sunsheet to protect JoJo? And a baby mini donkey long nose mask? He’s only like 30 lbs.

image006

Aunt Judy adores JoJo! I asked her if she’d babysit for a few minutes this am. She was on his level playing with him before I could finish asking. LOL

image0071

Betsy Rose was thrilled (so were the rest of us!) when Auntie Karen stopped by unexpectedly today! Karen spent many hours with Betsy Rose during her rehab.

image0092

Oscar and Pistol are like bookends. Where one is you’ll find the other. They love to play tug of war with anything. And they love to upside down poop buckets in the early morning hours and pretend they have a 2 donkey band.

image0111

Kiana enjoys her play time out of the barn area. She’s had a growth spurt! I’ll update in more detail about her tomorrow.

image0131

Kiana and Harvey grazing while Betsy Rose opts to nap in her stall in front of her PortaCool.

June 26th

Guess what?!? I have a name! It’s JoJo! I met so many humans today – it was like – wow! And they all drooled over me! I’ve never had so many hugs and scratches – I didn’t know a little guy like me could get that many in one day! I wish you all could meet Betsy Rose – she is like the Queen of this barn! She’s very kind and she’s quite talkative when she gets hungry. Freckles told me what h…happened to her before she came here – that was really sad. Everyone here is just so, well, like family! I saw some really long ears today on a HUGE mule named Matilda. I mean – her ears are as long as my body! And then there are Oscar and Pistol – more long ears. They are like brothers. And there’s lots of other horses I haven’t met yet but I will. Mommy Theresa says I have to stay inside when the sun is out but I get to come out when it’s cloudy and in the evening – my skin is so pink – around my eyes was already sunburned. I need to get to bed now – lights out soon. Nighty night everyone!”

Cookie’s Cancer and the Peanut Festival

October 4th – 5th, 2013

Friday

Unfortunately, it appears that the SCC has returned under Cookie’s eye. She needs to go back to the hospital and will likely need another surgery – she may end up losing the eye but it could be worse. And if she does lose her eye, well, most horses adjust well.

Terri and her husband are taking great care of Cookie and Divinity – we appreciate them very much. They have agreed to continue to foster the girls for as long as needed.  This is a true blessing and we can’t thank them enough. Anyone who has visited the rescue, can tell you we have very little shade which is what these two girls need (and each need a stall). Terri is home 24/7 to care for them.

Cookie and Divinity

I have to ask for help with another surgery for Cookie. We won’t know how much is needed until she is evaluated but it will be at least $900. If they have to remove the eye, it will be more. If anyone would like to help Cookie, please make a note on your donation that it’s for Cookie. Thanks everyone.
