Adoption number 39 for 2026🎉🎉

Despi, our beautiful girl has been officially adopted! She has already been out on a trail ride with her adopter and did great. She also gets along well with her new friends. Despi is halter trained, has good ground manners and really fun to ride. Such a friendly mare and is very easily handled. Good for bathing, farrier, vet, trailering and fly spray. We will miss Despi at the rescue but we are so excited that she has found her forever partner who seems to be the perfect match!!

Adoption number 38 for 2026🎉🎉

Esita, our stunning 2015 Arabian mare has been adopted by her foster to adopt home!
She was rescued from a neglectful owner with the Veruska herd September of 2024. She was bred when we got her and thankfully she gave birth to a healthy boy, Colton, May 8th 2025. She has been the best mom. Her and Colton got to stay together with the same adopter (along with Casper, Colton’s bestie), which is super special❤️ Esita is such a sweet, friendly and loving mare. She is halter trained and is officially under saddle. She loads well and has gotten better for the farrier. She has found the perfect home to finish out her training and love her. We are so thankful!

If you died tomorrow what would happen to your horses? Where would they go? Who would care for them? What is your plan?

Protect your babies if anything ever happens to you! If you think you don’t have options you do! Reach out to a good rescue ( make sure you check them out first) and see if they can be a backup plan if something happens.

We never know when our time could be up, things happen every day. Make sure you are ready for the just in case no matter your age or health!

$200 donor match!

$5 Miloh Friday! Long read but it is worth it!

Miloh was a special case from the moment we saw him posted at the lot in March of 2025. The definition of human failure. Starved, with a face that looked like he had a coconut stuck in the side of his mouth.

Now let’s be honest, we know every owner isn’t going to just go all out on vet care and spend thousands on a horse with an issue like this, but… they could have given him his wings before letting him starve 💔instead of spending the couple hundred to end his suffering they let him starve and dumped him to make a buck 😡 human failure and greed at it’s finest.

When no one stepped up for this sad gelding at the pen the Arabian group bailed him with the help of a foster. He was immediately seen by a vet, whose first concern was how sick and skinny he was. So the first step for him was to get healthy and gain weight.

Months later he was to the point where his face could be treated. Sadly the vet in OK was only able to do so much, and it came to the point where they recommended euthanasia 😢

Now here is where some people may disagree with our choice… this horse has been completely failed. Thrown away like garbage to make a little money. We didn’t want to just give up on him 💔 so we reached out to Classic Equine with all the info from the other vet, and the amazing Dr Johnson actually came up with a plan! Miloh came to MI in December of 2025. He spent 4 months at the vets. They removed a giant tumor that went from his mouth into his sinus that had started deteriorating the flesh around it 😢 after month and months of treatment we brought Miloh to the rescue where they were still able to continue treating him. He had a temporary plug in that hole at this point.

After a few months here we had to remove the plug, the flesh just wasn’t growing around it to fill in the whole. Now I gotta say, these guys don’t give up ❤️ they came up with a whole other concoction with a string and gauze and for a couple weeks we did that every 3-4 it was changed. Then we had to pull everything out and 🙏!

So far Miloh is doing amazing. They will be out to recheck his hole in the next weeks but Miloh is fat, very sassy ( actually he has decided he feels so good he wants to take on Alex for the main gelding 🤣)

We have paid several bills for Miloh, and have paid off all the small ones for the packing changes, but we still have these two we need to get paid!

Can you help us show Miloh that his life does matter and people do care?
