Bryce, Serenity, Romeo, Solace, Oscar

February 15th

Bryce and Serenity

Seeing contentment in their eyes is one of the greatest gifts ever.

Solace had a so-so day today.  The weather was a little cool, but nice.

February 16th

Although he is in better spirits, please keep the new gelding, Romeo, in your prayers – his blood work results came back.  His liver and kidneys are struggling.

Oscar can get his front end up on his own now.  We still have to help him get his back end up.

Look what our “discarded” pony named Starlight and her young lady, Jordan, accomplished in 2013!  A message from Jordan…

Can I brag about how good my pony is?
All these ribbons in her very first show year.
My end of 2013 division placings!

I’m oh so proud of my pony! ♡

Oscar, Cookie, and Others and Adoption Follow Ups

February 10th – 12th 

Monday, February 10th
We are so proud of our horses!  This mare has come so far in the care of her adoptive family – she recently won an event at the local speed show and it was the first time she had even been ridden outside of her paddock!  When she was adopted, she didn’t even want to be touched.  Congratulations Raven (Mia) and Brigitte!  Brigitte you and your family have worked wonders with her – thank you!

Cookie needs help! I call her my little “cow” in a loving way – the markings on her face are just unique. But she has been battling cancer for months now.  We are trying to save her eye.  Dr. Porter will be here on Thursday but we need to raise funds for her treatment.

Solace today. He was feeling ok. Thankfully.

Starlight – another of our rescued horses! Starlight and Jordan take great care of each other at Sprouses Corner Ranch! We are so proud of them and their accomplishments!

Oscar actually got up ON HIS OWN ACCORD this morning!  I knew last night when we went to roll him over, that it would be soon – he started kicking out with his back legs!  He’s only did it one time, but we’re hopeful he’ll continue to improve.  We do have a little setback as he may have some sort of infection going on.  Dr. Julia examined him this evening and we’re waiting for blood work to come back.

You can see Oscar didn’t feel well yesterday.  He hasn’t yet laid down again.  But hopefully, he’ll be able to continue to get up on his own.  He visited with Bill and Blodwyn today.

Wednesday, February 11th
Mahogany and Eliza are feeling a little better each day.  They will be getting hooficures tomorrow.

Wednesday, February 12th Oscar is all tucked in for the night. He hasn’t been able to get up on his own again. His blood work results from yesterday’s test came back and he has been started on antibiotics. He does have a good appetite and is drinking. But he has a long way to go. Please keep him in your prayers.  This is Bonnie giving some meds tonight before we got him back up.

Aug 28, 2012: Bouie, Frodo, Lily, Ebony, Sisco, Starlight, Sienna & Legacy

Bouie and Frodo made a break out yesterday – the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. LOL

Little Lily and her mom, Ebony, also took off. Like any of these 4 really need to gain any weight. Frodo wanted all of the grass to himself so he tried to chase them off – hopefully he ran off some calories.

Sisco had SCC when he came to us months ago. But he is doing well. We’ve been able to give him many months of a happy life and hopefully many more years to come.

Another Beauty’s Haven horse that we brought to Beauty’s Haven from a horrible situation last year. She landed in the arms of an angel. Thank you Jordan! Starlight grazing.

Starlight and Jordan!

Just look at beautiful Sienna! Thank you Kathy & Jamie!

This is Sienna the day we rescued her along with Dingolay (Layla) and Tonka back in May 2009.

And look at Legacy! Thank you, Jan Braakman for giving him the home and love he so deserves! Legacy came to us only a few days old in November 2009.

A Ton of Things Happening!

April 29th, 2013

Below is an update that should have gone out yesterday but didn’t – I apologize. I thought I published it but it was still in my “Draft” file.

This update is a little different from my norm – captions to photos are under the photo instead of before. Some of the pictures are from my cell phone so the pictures are not great quality.

Some of our Barbaro family! Today would have been his 10th birthday. He is a true champion, always.

Starlight and Jordan! Starlight is a rescue that we took in a few months ago. She is SO loved and has never had it so good – she is adored!

Jordan and Starlight back at the barn – look at all of those ribbons! Go girls!

Kylie and Roxy exercising horses and having fun at the same time this past Saturday!

Nevada has been just a pasture pal for quite a few weeks now because he was having an issue with muscle in his back left leg. He appeared sound for the last few weeks. Kylie rode him for a little bit at just a walk but cut the ride short because he started favoring that back leg again. He would really benefit from a chiropractic/acupuncture treatment. Would anyone like to help to sponsor this? He will likely need to be adopted out for a light rider doing light work. We’ll give him some more time, and treatments, and see how he does. He’s a very sweet boy.

Ceri is slowly putting on some weight. She’s a very sweet Arabian mare.

CaryLou did ok for his first lead lesson today. He is hysterical!!

What are the babies waiting for? Their mommas are getting antsy!

Ariel has a little bag. 🙂

Strutting again!! It’s hard to take his picture when he is like Velcro!

Penny is going to feel so much better after her clipping!

What a beautiful color she is!

There was an even more darling face under all that hair!

Lucy wants to help!

Penny looks like a different donkey! Thank you Lynda for making this happen!

Check her out – yes that is a heart on her butt! She is so pretty!

Morgan is looking for a forever home.

Solace is doing great.

Lucy is still doing well. She is such a doll!

Have a great week everyone!
