Zee Oh Six was napping when I walked by this morning. His eyes were closed so I tried to be really quiet when I pulled out my phone.. I didn't fool him though. He opened his eyes just long enough to make sure I didn't have a halter in my hand! 😄
Although he's aging (he's 27 now) he still gives me a dance around the run in shed a time or 2 before he lets me catch him!

Noah has made it safely to his new home. I wasn't expecting to feel so emotional.....I know he's going to be really happy, but it will be a bit sad not to see him here everyday!

Although it wasn't....this sure looks like a serious conversation....
And why does Cowboy look like he's the guilty one? 🤣

You will often see horses stand very close, but in opposite directions, and this short video is a good example of why they do this.
Zee Oh Six helps keep flies off of Amber's face on this hot afternoon! And likewise, when Amber swishes her tail, she is doing the same for Zee!
Another good reason why it's so important for horses to always have a buddy. They take care of each other!

When you have a blinding shine, but haven't seen a brush in weeks!!
This is Waylon...he is 1 of the TX 27 horses we helped rescue a couple years back with the help of Beyond the Roses Equine Sanctuary.
Waylon has had quite the life, and what a story he could tell! He was a feral stud c**t when we first met him, but he has decided that since people are connected to the things he loves, (treats, alfalfa and grain) he is very happy as a domesticated gelding!

"The look of eagles" is an old phrase I rarely hear these days! It describes that moment when a horse is intently looking at something that has grabbed their interest, and their entire being stops and stares....ears forward, eyes gazing ahead.
Wicca Okie has this "look of eagles". If you look closely at the background of the photo, you
can see a rainbow has formed. This photo was taken by one of our volunteers, John Kirk, who has a talent for capturing unique moments with horses!
