🎄 Looking for a meaningful Christmas gift that isn’t commercial?

It's THOROUGHBRED THURSDAY! & We have 5 Beautiful OTTBs in our Program looking for their forever homes...aanndddd another one up and coming ..."Cooper" has successfully recovered from surgery and is starting his rehabilitation journey...more details of this sweet, kind, gentle fella will be shared soon... :)

Give the gift of giving by sponsoring one of the horses in our care.

If you can’t adopt but want to help out, a holiday sponsorship is a beautiful (and rewarding) way to make a real difference for an Off-Track Thoroughbred.

Your sponsorship helps provide essential care like:
• veterinary care & check-ups
• quality feed & safe shelter
• rehabilitation & retraining
• safe, loving care if they aren't able to be adopted into approved homes or inteirm care until they are.

What your gift recipient receives: (depending on the level of sponsorship)
• a personalized sponsorship certificate (perfect for gifting)
• a profile + story of their sponsored horse
• photo/video updates throughout the year
• the chance to visit and meet their horse
• for children: a plush horse stuffie + kid-friendly “Meet Your Horse” Placement card and a personalize coloring book of their Sponsored Horse.

💞🏇There have been countless studies proving the merit of OTTBs (& all horses) for therapeutic purposes...💞🏇

Emotional regulation :
Horses can help people with autism, anxiety, stress, and frustration learn to regulate their emotions
Equine therapy can help people with PTSD feel more focused and develop meaningful relationships
Equine therapy can help people with social anxiety, panic disorders, and phobias feel more confident and improve their self-esteemEquine therapy can help children with ADHD improve their concentration and attention

❤️ Daisy, Elliot, Lucy, CC, Bonnie and Cooper are the amazing horses in our program that will make wonderful "counselors" and lifelong friends & confidants.❤️

Reach out if you'd like more information on them or would like to help out in any way 🙂

Love there is the ability to access this JC Report for all OTTBs 💞🏇💞

Have an OTTB or in the market for one? Check out Equineline’s OTTB Profile, their first report centered on OTTB’s, offering a summary of the horse’s race record, including comments, owners, and trainers for each race; the last 10 workouts; a list of the horse’s siblings; auction history; and, if applicable, the produce record if the subject Thoroughbred is a mare that has been bred. The report is free to all off-track Thoroughbreds who have a T.I.P. number. Individuals registering their OTTB’s for a new T.I.P. number will have access to the report 30 days after application.
