Horses with Hope "Helping rescued horses find their human soul mates."

Horses with Hope Rescue is dedicated to the compassionate care of equines of all shapes, sizes and backgrounds. Our mission is to rescue and rehabilitate abused, neglected, and abandoned equines and match them with compatible and loving homes based on the individual horse's needs. We believe in using true horsemanship to develop a relationship with each horse, and to help each horse reach its full

potential. Please feel free to contact us if you would like to hear about other horses we may have available for adoption, or if you are interested in learning more about us. Our Adoption Application can be found on our website at:http://horseswithhopeme.org/site/wp-content/uploads/Adoption-Application-2.pdf

It has been a very busy month here at Horses with Hope and we would like to announce our final adoption of the month as Dakota! Dakota has been adopted by the same wonderful family who adopted Blue through us a few years ago. Dakota still has a lot of growing and learning to do, but his new dad has plenty of experience and time to give him the solid foundation he needs. We wish Dakota and his new family the best of luck and cannot wait to see what a beautiful horse he grows into. Dakota was with us for training from Gerda’s Equine Rescue.

Shipley has come a long way from the frightened gelding that we met in May. It is a beautiful thing when a horse learns to truly connect and wants to engage. Shipley is with us for training from Gerda’s Equine Rescue.

Often times, once a horse begins regular under saddle work we can tell pretty quickly how their body is adjusting. Sunny is a bit of a harder read because she tends to be very defensive and protective of her body in general. We have discovered a “fun” way to work on this defensive spot using pool noodles on a surcingle. The noodles bounce and move along with her and elicit some strong feelings that she is then able to work through in the form of relaxed movement. Sunny is with us for training from NEER North.

Smokey has mastered the roundpen and is now working on learning the “draw.” By developing his draw we are hoping to prepare him for working at liberty in a larger space. We are working Smokey at a trot as much as possible because this 2 beat, diagonal gait really helps him lift through his back and build the top line needed to carry a rider. Smokey is with us for training from The MSSPA.

Not a whole lot is known about Galaxy’s past, but we can tell she has had an unhealthy relationship with pressure. She feels any pressure in a BIG way and quickly reacts to try to give the right answer and make it stop. Our focus with Galaxy is slowing everything down and allowing her to process in a soft and relaxed manner through her whole body. Here we are working on frequent changes of eye and direction, while keeping things slow and calm. Galaxy is with us for training from Gerda’s Equine Rescue.

During the next couple of weeks we are shining a spotlight on liberty work! Liberty is one of the tools that we have found extremely useful with all the horses we work with. Thanks to our friends Gamilah Unbridled we now have a bit more knowledge and are able to expand our use of liberty with all of our trainees. Cheyenne carries a great deal of physical and emotional scars. When we remove her halter and give her the freedom to choose to be with us, she starts to open up emotionally and becomes happier and more engaged. Cheyenne is with us for training from Gerda’s Equine Rescue.
