A Very HOT Saturday

It was too hot to go out to feed any earlier than this tonight.The breezeway is 10 degrees cooler than outside. Yikes!! I'll start complaining about the heat if this keeps up.


Beautiful and lovable Bobbie waits for dinner. I think she is gaining some weight. She, Tory and Charles have been getting double, triple feeding. That means I double their grain and triple their hay. If they don't gain weight with that then there are other problems to look for. Of course, their teeth have been cared for and they have been wormed.

Tory seems to be OK with the loss of Tawny. He even stood near Bobbie who doesn't usually like anyone near her. Tory is a pocket horse. He'd get in your back pocket and stay right with you if he could.


Charles loves his grain and loves to be loved. Tomorrow our volunteers will spend time with him and Belle.


Belle didn't want her picture taken so she moved away. No pictures, lots of love, please, especially ear rubs. Aren't Moon Dancer and Frankie a wonderful pair?


Usually, Breeze Bay canters around while I get their feed ready. Tonight it was Cash's turn. He raced around chasing everyone.



Molly mule can make funny faces.

Navajo is doing so well. He likes his little herd of Ruby, Molly, Rico and Pedro.
Rico's abcess is better. He's a funny boy who loves to snuggle.

Here is Princess Gracie in her "dungeon" with Lexi. She ate all of my garden.

Harmony and Chance have really bonded. I turned them loose in the yard today and they stayed close to one another. They did not eat my garden. When I led Harmony to the new pen tonight, Jonathan followed. When he saw they were going to be put away he turned around and went elsewhere. He likes his freedom. Chance's rump is starting to fill out now.



Why do people race these babies and cause so much pain and suffering? His knee will heal, but it
will always be a problem for him. He loves his Harmony.
Being with the animals is the best part of the sanctuary, but second best is getting to know so many caring people. I have been in touch with Ruthie from Granada Hills who has been helping to care for three abandoned horses. One of the horses is Dakota, a 27-28 year old grey gelding. He was a reining horse, but now needs a loving home where a child could ride him slowly. If you can offer Dakota a forever home, please call Ruthie-818-360-4989.
