Look at how amazing Hope
Is looking!! 👀

Such a beautiful improvement in only 7 weeks! Always amazing the difference good nutrition and love can make! According to the tape, she has gained 80 pounds now. 550 lbs to 630 lbs! Not only that, but her spark and joy are back! 🫶🏻

Big thanks to Paula for her TLC. And also, thanks to Janet and Anne for helping with this week’s feed. We appreciate you! 🥰

PS - Just checked the paypal… Also big thanks to Ginni and Jim of Anderson Hills for helping with next week’s feed as well! Yall make my heart smile 😊

Anyone want to pitch in for this month’s senior feed for Hope?

She has gained at least 50 pounds now. Has seen the vet twice. Had her teeth lightly floated. And the farrier has trimmed her toes, too! Big thanks to Ms. Paula for helping her feel soooooo much better!

Coming along nicely. Just needs a lot more weight! Who can help?

PUPDATE… These sweet little puppies will be picked up by Blacklist Animal Rescue today. More to come…

Courtesy post. These are not FRRR pups.

Homes or rescue needed ASAP for mixed breed puppies from an oops litter. Only 6 weeks old! The original owner was going to put them to sleep, but a young friend intercepted them, thinking it would be easy to find them homes. No homes have been found and her parents want them gone ASAP. No shelter can take them. PM for more information.

Spay and neuter would have prevented this. 😭

What tragic news for the horse world. 😭

What a difference 30 days can make!?!

Huge thanks to Ms Paula for giving Hope the BEST TLC!

Also, thank you to everyone who has helped us get this far. If you would like to sponsor some or all of a bag of senior feed, we are feeding her Purina Senior and alfalfa pellets (plus 6 supplements, etc). $30 a bag for the senior, $18 for the alfalfa.

What a fun week so far!

We opened the gates to some new volunteers this week, plus had the help of some regulars as well.

Big thanks to Ashlen, Gavin, Sophia, Lily, and Emma for helping with some big chores today! Loved that the herd was completely groomed head to tail. So many burrs removed!

All but Spirit’s, that is. He is still refusing to give up his wild card. Soon we will be devoting an entire volunteer day just for him. Who’s interested?

Also, stay tuned for an update on Hope and her friend, who were seized last week. Both are in amazing barns, being well cared for! Can’t wait to visit them soon! ❤️

For now, enjoy the herd here at the ranch…
