Willow helped support Yelena today, as she had her first ride.

Willow was helping support Yelena for her first person on her back! This was our 3 time in 5 days working with the saddle. She cut her time down to 30 seconds getting the saddle pad on and by half with the saddle. I was able to put my weight over her, and then sit in the saddle. She stood still and checked me out and did amazing. So proud of this young mustang!

Day two of Yelena’s new training. She’s smart, curious, and sweet. Growing like a w**d! I had to use a bucket to put weight on her back and still had to jump. Going to need a proper mounting block for this precious baby.

Farrier day again! Very sleepy ponies made for a great trim! We were able to get front and hind on everyone! We did run out of time for Nala, but we can get her caught up on the next visit.

Today we said farewell to Savannah as she starts her journey with her new owner Jayce. We are excited to watch her excel into a phenomenal riding horse and companion!

Savannah started her rehabilitation with us almost a year ago. She was in a neglect situation that unfortunately caused her to be seized by king county sheriff deputies. We are glad to say she has found her forever home! Updates following her training to continue.

Thank you to everyone that has donated or volunteered their time to assist with WRER horses, without you this is not possible!
