"Katie" AKA "Sunshine"
 |
Katie (aka Sunshine) was sold to
Edie Mickey of Live Oak FL.
A month afterwards Edie sent this note: "Katie
came to live with us on May 9, 2008. She joined Dusty, a buckskin
gelding, who is approx. 26 years old. They are in love! They
stand together under the huge oak trees in their pasture. I am
learning quite a bit from Katie (with Joe's help). My confidence
level is growing, and I was able to give her a bath while she
stood ground tied with no problem. She is one beautiful sweet
horse. What will Dave Ellis do when he finds out she has been
sold! Thanks to Joe and Andrea I have a wonderful pasture-mate
for Dusty, and a horse that I can ride. I am developing into
a confident horsewoman!" |
"Niki"
|
We congratulate Bernie and Teresa of Nova Scotia
on their decision to purchase Niki. She is a special horse
and they are special people. |
LOUIE
 |
Louie has FINALLY found his new home. It gives me chills, to think
about this, and how long it took us to find Louie his match. Because
Louie was gelded at 5 years old we felt perhaps he would always act "studdy" and need a "special" home.
But Louie became the nicest horse, and after a long hot summer "off"
we restarted him in October. Lisa came to see him shortly thereafter
and was not sure he was for her. Then again in December, Lisa was
here for a clinic and she spent some time with him, and still liked
him, even though he was green under saddle.
Other people came and looked at him...but Lisa was always in the
background, waiting. Lisa came back in early May and Louie was no
longer green. Somehow, he matured and became a seasoned horse "overnight".
Or did Louie know, somehow, that Lisa was going to be his true partner
? It is a joy to know that Louie will have a forever "natural"
home with people like Lisa, Domenick, and Anna LaNeve ! (they also
adopted one of my kittens last year).

"Lynx"
|
Neither one
of us had makeup on, or had washed our hair - but can you imagine
how gorgeous we will be when we do! He is doing really well!!
He is so responsive and kind - and really forward (I like that)
- we are learning to communicate under saddle and are getting
better at it all of the time. I can't wait to show Lynx this Spring
- we will clean up! Take care - and happy holidays/Happy New Year
- I will keep you posted - thank you so much for matching us up!

"Frank's
Money" 
Frank with Joe at Wellborn Quarter
Horses one month after his rescue.
See photo of Frank in his new home Here
Frank in his new pasture. |
Frank is a
registered 3 year old thoroughbred gelding (with papers). Purchased
(rescued) on April 15 from a neglectful home. Current on all
shots, worming, and farrier work, he is ready to go home with
someone. He loves being bathed (photo taken after his bath),
but is sometimes difficult to catch. We recommend keeping him
alone or with a dependable older horse, until he settles into
his new home and trusts that he will not be abused. Parelli
person preferred!
Pam and Tom
Marshall adopted Frank and since he is in Wellborn, we get to
hear all about his exploits. No longer difficult to catch or to
hoof-trim, Frank is finally enjoying his new life with people
who respect him and care for him.
