Happy Holidays! The horses are doing rather well and continuing to grow stronger daily. A huge THANK YOU to everybody for their support and willingness to volunteer through one of the busiest times of the year. We wouldn’t be able to care for these amazing creatures without your help.
We’re hoping to have some of them cleared for foster in the coming weeks. The foster application is below for those of you that would like to fill one out.
Once completed, it should be returned to me at Lucy Mackenzie.
The mailing address is PO Box 702, Brownsville, VT 05037. If you have any questions, let me know.
Best,
Jackie Stanley
