🐴 This week's wishlist item is a barn essential: bell boots! ✨

Bell boots help protect our horses' hooves and heels from overreaching injuries, making them an important part of keeping many of our residents comfortable, safe, and sound during turnout and training.

With so many horses in our care, supplies like these are always in demand. If you'd like to help support the horses at KYEAC, consider purchasing a pair from our wishlist.

🛍️ Shop our wishlist here:

Every donation helps us provide the daily care our horses need as they heal, grow, and prepare for their future homes. Thank you for being part of their journey! 💙

🌟 Special Thank You to Chloe at CRF Remote Equine Monitoring! 🌟

We are incredibly grateful to Chloe for generously donating her remote monitoring services for our pregnant mare, Vicki, in the days leading up to the birth of her c**t, Prince. 💙🐴

Foaling can be unpredictable, and having Chloe's expertise and overnight surveillance gave our team invaluable peace of mind. Thanks to her careful monitoring, we were able to arrive at the barn at just the right time to assist Vicki and welcome healthy little Prince into the world.

It truly takes a village to make stories like this possible, and we are so thankful for Chloe's support and dedication. If you're looking for reliable remote equine monitoring, we can't recommend CRF Remote Equine Monitoring highly enough!

🎉 Wishlist Wednesday 🎉

This week, we're wishing for a few new lead ropes to help us safely handle and care for the horses at KYEAC! 🐴

Lead ropes are an everyday essential around the farm. We use them for feeding, turnout, veterinary care, training sessions, and introducing our horses to potential adopters. These are used a lot and can wear out quickly.

If you'd like to support our herd, consider purchasing a lead rope here: https://www.statelinetack.com/products/mustang-basic-cotton-lead-rope?variant=43798956212361

📦 Ship donations to: 1713 Catnip Hill Rd, Nicholasville, KY 40356

Thank you for helping us help, heal, and home Kentucky's equines! 🐎
