Thank you to Stephanie and her daughter Emmy for this update on GusGus and for giving him a great home! They adopted this pretty pony cross gelding in 2020 (after he and his trainer Sarah Helms of Step Up Horsemanship won our 2020 Promise of the Future training competition).

Everyone at MHARF wishes to extend our sympathy to Julie on the loss of her beloved Gambler (Midnight Gamble), adopted from us in 2008. He was a lucky boy to get such a great home with Julie. He was as loved as a horse can be.
