Enjoy some of the stories of horses at HEART finding wonderful homes...
complete with caring people to take great care of them!
Poco
Poco has found her new family with Michelle Craig. She moved up to the White Mountians and now has lots of room to ride and no more hot summers down here. Michelle came to HEART looking to find her partner and fell in love with Poco. They look great together and Poco looks very happy with her new best friend, Congratulations Michelle and Poco. We are going to love doing the home visits there in the summer.
Hunter
Hunter got his new person today. Congratulations to Mia Larocque on the adoption of Hunter. Mia saw our broadcast on channel 13 with Heather Rowe and called us to come and volunteer. After she was here and we saw the pictures she was taking we asked her if she would be our photographer for HEART. We were so happy when she said she would join our team here. After awhile when she got to know our horses, she fell in love with Hunter, and Denali. She has adopted Hunter and they will now ride off into the sunset a happy team. Hunter has a family of his own now, and Mia has a best friend for life.
Jack
Jack came to us almost 2 years ago very malnourished and unhealthy. His new owner worked here for us and saw that he was a diamond in the rough and believed in him. They have been training in jumper and bringing in the ribbons. He won his first championship from the HITS show here in 2009. Jack just left this week for Montana with his owner to attend an equine college program for 13 months.
Ginger
Ginger was rescued 3 years ago. She was in a pen with rebar coming up from the ground and wire fence all down on the ground. She was in with another horse that wasn't as lucky as her. His injuries were so severe that he had to be humanly put to sleep. Little Ginger was able to grow and blossom here with her new friends. She has been so wonderful with teaching the kids at camp how to ride and care for horses. Little Ginger had been foundered and other health issues but with the right diet and hoof care she feels great now and will go on to do wonderful things. She spent the last 2 summers teaching children proper riding techniques, and proper horse care where she found her new adoptive owner! Now they enjoy learning dressage together and plan to come back to this year's summer camp to learn more, and now help others learn as well.
