I went to visit the Horse Protection Association of Florida on Sunday to volunteer and look at a few horses for Kathy. The farm is everything I would have expected from them based on their website and more. FHOTD has me looking at rescues with a more critiquing eye these days and HPAF is a really great example of a well run rescue. Great website? check. Well managed, clean and asteticly pleasing property? check. Happy horses well on their way to recovery? Double check.
I think they said they had 63 horses and everyone looks better than Tie already. We could learn a thing or two from them for sure! HPAF also has a professional trainer to work with the elidgible horses. That is just top notch in my opinion. Check out their website. It is really nice.
In other news Tie got his feet done yesterday. The farrier was impressed with how well his feet were holding up to the lack of nutrition, and thinks he is doing just fine feet wise. I am excited about this as we all know no feet no horse.
A few people have recommended probiotics to see if we can get Tie more regular. Any thoughts? It is worth a shot, and I read some positive reviews online.
Here is Bodhi in his winter garb (red blanket) meeting some new pasture buddies.
It sounds like a good organization that is doing wonderful things for the animals.
ReplyDeleteGlad Tie's feet are coming along too. And Bodhi looks very festive in his red blanket.
Have a wonderful Christmas and give the boys a kiss on the nose from me.
I will do that and have a wonderful holiday too!
ReplyDeleteSeriously unfair, everything is still green down there!
