Welcome to Project SpiritWe have DYNAMITE horses!Articles from December 2011It was a sad day when our little Johnny left us for a new home. We never thought he would be adopted because of his blindness, but when Andre and Leanne came here, little Johnny picked them. It was amazing to watch, he was so resistant to peoples touch, but these two were a magnet for him. One of those things that is meant to be, so we let him and the little wild thing go to their new home in Boise. This cute little stallion came here, again via a good friend. Owners were too old to care for him so to avoid future neglect, we took him in. It was hilarious from the start, he was so much his own man and he was going to rule supreme. Take a look at these antics... Radar, This poor starving gelding was found tied to a fence. I asked if I could have him and they said to take him, so I did. He spent the winter and part of the summer with my pal Debi re-filling his poor starved body and he changed out of his cacoon into a butterfly to die for. Look what good friends John and Barbara Evansizer donated to P.S. A restoration dream come true. This is a turn of the century carriage, been stored for over 25 yrs in a warehouse and has been donated to the rescue horses. Can you imagine what this would look like restored? What a piece of history. We know little about it yet, but as we find out more we will add to this blog. Thank you John and Barbara, our needy horses will eat next year because of your kindness. If anyone would like to make an offer, please contact us and come and see it. Two Mares were released to P.S. due to a death in the family. The bay mare had a major hernia that was way too expensive to fix, her intestines were being held by skin only so her previous owner and Project Spirit agreed on euthanasia to prevent further suffering. Such a shame, she was a very beautiful mare. Pepper is a very lovely mare, 20-21 yrs old and super trained. We had her teeth and feet done, wormed and ready to go to her forever home. She is about 15 hands and will follow you like a puppy, she has amazing manners and respect. Please contact us if you would like this lovely mare as your forever friend. This is a sad story that turned out so well thanks to a kind neighbor. These lovely mares were left to starve on the mountain, unwanted. A kind lady took them in and called us. We picked them up, had their dreadful teeth fixed, feet trimmed, wormed and adopted all in less than 2 weeks. AND they went together to a ranch home where they will live until they die. I danced a jig for these two...so close to hell, then dropped in heaven. WooHoo, made my Christmas for sure. So many people to thank for this rescue, you know who you are and I am forever grateful. |
