“She’s part of a lovely herd now”: After being discarded and overlooked by her original owner, this sassy little horse found her forever human in a devoted volunteer

You know, we devote so much time to indulging in the adoption and rescue stories of darling doggos and cute cattos that we almost completely overlook the wild and wonderful world of rescues and adoptions that lies beyond those two. For everyday animals of all shapes and sizes are found, brought to safety, cleaned up and hopefully given a furever home with a furever family who will love them for the rest of their days. And today we have one of those stories lined up for you.

It is the story of a sassy little horse, who overcame the odds of an inattentive owner, was rescued from their evil clutches, and who caught the eye of a woman who was ready to do whatever it took to care for this majestic creature. It is a story of resilience, a story of persistence, and above all else, a story of what is possible when you put your heart into your actions.

Well, you would be a little sassy after being mistreated for years, too. Sometimes it is hard to let go of our old ways, and in many ways this horse is a fine example of exactly that, but as it always is, old habits die hard. But hay, who doesn’t like a little sass in their saddle.

It is so nice to see someone taking pet adoption seriously. Taking all the steps to ensure that when they finally do get to undertake the care of an animal, that they are fully prepared for it and can truly give that animal the life that they deserve. Which after what this horse has been through, is a life fit for a queen.
