First Rescue... Then Rehabilitation... Sanctuary as warranted... And then Therapy!!!

Miniature horses & donkeys sharing love with seniors and children, giving back to humans despite some rough starts of their own 💙💗

Third Friday means Lake Pleasant… Trinket gave the boys a break today since I wasn’t able to get helpers, I couldn’t decide whether to take the horse boy or the donkey boy… so I took the girl 💝

Third Wednesday is now Cogir of Peoria each month… so blessed to have two facilities on board for monthly visits now! Silver Dollar added several ladies to his harem lol 😂, everyone wants to kiss him 😘 and poor Michael, he’s allergic but such a trooper, always willing to help!! Trinket gave Shazam a break today, otherwise he would have had 4 visits in 8 days… since he’s 24 and it’s so awfully hot 🥵 I’m trying to be careful with him!!

Residents and staff enjoyed the boys at the Bliss Hospice sponsored visit at MorningStar Arcadia today 🤗

Another great Bliss sponsored visit this morning… Garden Ridge at Ridges of Peoria! Thanks to Brian our “boss” (volunteer coordinator) and Alyssa the AD for sharing pictures with me! Due to resident privacy I’ve covered faces but you’ll just have to take my word for it on all the HUGE smiles our three boys created today! The staff enjoyed interacting as well! And of course Arlo was his usual Mr. Smiley self 😁 🐕

Was hoping for more photos but didn’t get them, so I’m a week late 😣 with the few I got from our Bliss Hospice sponsored visit to Senita Ridge in Peoria. Met a couple of Bliss interns who came to help out, they had so much fun they are both hoping to come back often 🥰 there were SO MANY residents gathered in the main area and a high percentage were VERY engaged, I was so busy answering questions I almost forgot photos altogether 🙃😉

Looking back to see where I left off, realized I never posted these after I picked them up and “installed” them! Felt a bit foolish as the CAUTION magnets were supposed to go above the other 2 signs but didn’t realize when I measured the areas that the top half of the back hatch was actually NOT metal, it’s fiberglass or plastic or whatever less-expensive-than-metal material they use on vehicle bodies 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ anyway they stick on the sides, and Dahlia at The Sign Lab LLC will have identical STICKERS to put on the top of the back hatch when the side door magnets are designed and created so that I can pick them all up when those are finished! After driving with them a few times, I do feel better that I’m giving warming, but sadly hubby was correct and some people just don’t care 🤷‍♀️ just this morning I had someone come racing up behind me, I thought he was going to rear end us 😳 but he changed lanes barely in time, then cut right back in front of me and zoomed off 🙄 crazy drivers are everywhere 😳 but I tried!! 🤷‍♀️

After Wednesday’s freeway fun (not) it was great to stay closer to home, 3rd Friday of each month is Lake Pleasant Acute Care and Rehab, and it was my first time having 3 in the Lorry! I had figured from the start I could fit 4, but that would be “loose”, and research led us to design for the minis to be tied for more stability while driving, so today confirmed that max capacity will be 3 tied minis!! The biggest challenge was loading the 3rd but the second time was better, after learning from the first time! The dog in the therapy room was quite concerned but at least this time she didn’t bark and try to get over the gate (past visits the door had to be closed while we were in there 😳)

Always a pleasure to spend time with sunshine Shannon and Foxy’s fave Aurora (Shazam channels Foxy now for her, it’s so sweet)

First time for Trinket in the Lorry, 5 minutes to practice loading and she did pretty good 👍 I have been taking the 2 tiny boys since we got the Lorry finished, but needed to give Shazam a break as we had FOUR visits this week!! So Sunshine Village in North Phoenix got to see Trinket and I was seriously blown away by how tiny she makes Silver Dollar look 🤯 and how big the Lorry makes Trinket look 😳 but luckily she fits without hitting the ceiling lol 😂

Definitely got to get busy with the rest of the magnets for the Lorry though, driving on the 17 and the 101 and the 51 was way more crazy than my usual west side excursions… people are nuts!!! Can’t guarantee the signs will really help but at least I’ll feel better having tried!!! Need to design the 2 big ones for the side doors yet but look for a post after next week showing the smaller warning signs for the rear hatch door!

PS doesn’t Trinket look smashing in the new pink western bandannas??? First time they were worn!

Bliss visit Tuesday July 13th at Arbor Ridge in Peoria, new volunteer Hayden’s first time and she had so much fun she can’t wait to do it again! And was so good to see Heaven again, Shazam especially really missed her, he was snuggling whenever he had the chance between residents!! Was hoping for more pics to be shared but haven’t seen them yet so posting without, gotta get all caught up! It was nice to hear so many people asking if we would come back soon!
