“Giving [Essie] a fighting chance allowed me to find my heart horse.”

“What a glorious day! My Peanut was a rock star today. I couldn’t have asked for a more relaxed chill horse. Today was a “big” deal for us. I have dealt with loss of confidence and doubt for the past couple years. Doubt that I could be the person my mare needed me to be. Over the past 4 months Essie has really blossomed and become a much more confident horse. She has never been healthier or stronger! Today’s wonderful success is a result of the hard work we have been putting! I love this mare so much. I don’t ever think I can thank MHARF enough for doing what you do. Giving a mostly dead little filly a fighting chance allowed me to find my ❤️ horse.”-Brandy

“Our family really enjoys his fun personality”

“We just wanted to send some update photos of Oliver to you. He is loving the trails, doing lessons, and is getting used to cattle. Our family really enjoys his fun personality. He will roll barrels around the pasture, and likes to play on different obstacles.”–Shelby

“I’m so happy I found her!”

“Badlass is doing really well! I love her and am so happy I found her.”–Jordyn

“I cannot thank you all enough for taking her in so I could end up finding her!”

Here’s an update “Sparrow” (formerly known as Alexa from our 2020 Trainer’s Challenge w/ trainer Alysa Bjorklund) Her adopter Kate says: “She has been an absolute dear and I cannot thank you all enough for taking her in so I could end up finding her!”

A new life for Star!

We love this update! This is Star who came to us in December of 2019 because her owner was ill and could not provide care for her. We were asked by a kindly neighbor who had been feeding Star to take her in. The catch was that she had been a lone horse for almost her entire life and had not been handled in many years. We did not have any space to spare at that time and she was quite far south of us, so we put a call out for experienced people willing to catch, load and haul a horse with no training, and also for a foster home willing to work with her to have intake vet and farrier care done. The response was huge and within days we had hauling set up (thank you, Janette and Craig!), as well as a foster home who would help her safely learn to be around other horses again (thank you Robin and David!), and provide vet and farrier care (thank you to Dr. Kirsten of Sunrise Equine!). In the spring Star was entered into the 2020 Trainer’s Challenge w/ trainer Shaylor Alley where they took home 6th Overall Highpoint. She was then adopted by Robert and Shannon and she now lives the good life with her best buddy Rolo. Shannon and Robert report that they love her and she makes them smile every day. Thank you so much to everyone who made Star’s journey possible!
