My personal favorite section... here is how we know that we are making a difference in the lives of horses and humans!!! Lauren
Doris & Cody - November Checkin; these two are wonderful together and both have found what they were looking for. We couldn't be happier for Doris and Cody!
	Daphney - September Checkin; looking beautiful, well taken care of and loved!
Flo (Florence of HOPE) is having a ball with her family. The girls have fun in the shows as well as mom. We are so proud of this little mare and the family that cares so much for her!
	Our little Hope (born at H.O.P.E.) has grown so much. She is adored by Jeanne and her gelding friends. She will be starting saddle training soon at the age of 3, we are very happy that Jeanne chose not to saddle train her at the age of 2. They will have many years of riding time together and we wish them the best with training!
Jac is doing very well with his new mom and all his other Welsh friends. He will start his serious show training this fall. He has grown into a beautiful gelding and is well taken care of.
	Katie and Mindy have completed their two year checkin.
Pam and L.A. are a match made in heaven and Pam will tell how L.A. rescued her. This horse could not have asked for a better home! Pam says that L.A. is just as important to her as her own children.
	Rocky is very comfortable and happy in his new home. The family is enjoying him and he has a good life with lots of pasture. He is looking very relaxed and healthy.
Youngblood (Youngin') is another one of our very lucky horses who received a wonderful home. Pam and YB have a very special bond and Pam has a lot of love in her heart for him!
