Lots of mud and dirty ponies but VERY thankful for the rain last night 🌧️

A great read for this morning! 🩵

Its Monday ❤️ Give yourself some grace.

The biggest lesson I ever learned didn’t come from a textbook. It came from standing in a muddy field, holding the lead rope of a horse who wouldn’t move.

And suddenly, I realised—it’s never about getting there fast.
It’s about learning how to stand still without giving up.
It’s about taking one small step—then another.
It’s about not quitting, even when it feels like nothing is changing.

You wouldn’t rush a nervous pony.
You’d meet them where they are, every single time.
You’d speak softly. You’d give them space.
You’d celebrate the tiniest shift.

So why don’t we treat ourselves like that?

At Equimotional, we know this:
Progress isn’t always visible.
But it’s always happening.

Bit by bit.
Breath by breath.
Hoofprint by hoofprint.

Stop trying to gallop up the mountain in three months.
Be okay with grazing your way there over three years.
You’re not behind. You’re just becoming.

Keep going. You’ve already come so far.

Dont forget we have a pretty much endless supply of manure/mulch! It’s great for your garden and makes the flowers bloom like crazy (picture of my morning glories today 🥰)

We can load it for you, just get with me on setting up a day/time. It’s free, but we are accepting donations towards it as well. 100% of all donations go back into the care of the horses here at the rescue 💕

We are a recognized 501c3 non profit organization.

How it started -> how it’s going 😍

What a GROWN UP!!! Arrow’s mom was rescued back in May of 2024, we barely had her 24 hours before Arrow made his appearance into the world! Fast forward to today… and look how BIG he’s gotten 🥲

Both Arrow and his mother got adopted together, and are living a wonderful life 🫶 I had to ask his mom if I could grab the pictures she posted of him to share… I just can’t get over how great he looks, and how big he keeps getting 🩵

Love our adopters and LOVE watching our adopted horses absolutely thrive ✨

PRESS RELEASE: Commissioner Sid Miller and the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) today issued an alert to Texas horsemen of an outbreak of Equine Herpesvirus Type 1 (EHV-1) reported by Texas veterinarians after the recent World Championship Barrel Racing (WPRA) Finals in the Waco area on November 5-9. Commissioner Miller is urging all horse owners, trainers, and venue operators who attended or were in proximity to the event, or who have recently returned from any large equine gathering in the Waco region in the last 14 days to act swiftly, monitor their animals carefully, and implement heightened biosecurity measures.

“This virus can spread fast, it can be deadly, and the earliest signs are often so subtle they’re easy to miss,” Commissioner Miller, himself an avid horseman, said. “That’s why monitoring your horses right now is critical. The quicker we identify a potential case, the better chance we have to protect not only our animals, but the entire Texas equine community.”

🟡WAYS TO HELP🟡

All About Horses Rescue & Sanctuary is a 501c3 non profit organization located in San Angelo, TX 🤍 all donations are tax deductible and 100% of all donations go back into the care of the horses. We specialize in refeeding, and neglect cases. Our goal is to rehab, and adopt - however we do not focus on quick adoptions. We focus on matching homes with horses that would be best suited for one another so that this is a forever placement. All adoptions are under contract. We are also a sanctuary, where we house equine that are harder to adopt due to age, medical reasons or disposition. We provide full care for these horses until end of life. We cannot do what we do without the support of our community and team of followers 💖

👇Featured is Amos, one of our senior sanctuary residents. When I originally agreed to helping this sweet boy, my initial plan was to adopt him once he was healthy. It’s hard to want to take him away from his friends since they are so bonded now (Greta and her mini me 🥹) and since the girls have medical issues, we are not adopting them. By default making Amos a sanctuary resident, lucky boy 😮‍💨 Amos came to us extremely underweight, and missing almost all his teeth. He is a cribber, which is what probably led to his lack of teeth in the first place. Amos also has a dropped, back right fetlock. He gets around really well at this time, and our farrier just trims him a tad different to help with his weight distribution. He is also an OTTB, but unfortunately his tattoo can’t be read, so we can only speculate what his past life was like. Amos is a very quirky guy, and likes to keep his ears pinned back even when he’s happy but he’s a TOTAL doll. We know thats just the way he is, and we love him for it 💙
