Mount Horeb Freedom Valley Horse Rescue Horse Finds New Home!
Christine Markle-Welch of Freedom Valley Horse Rescue shares a happy tale about a horse that almost went to the meat grinder, but now has a happy new home. We hope you will enjoy this article from the Freedom Valley Horse Rescue blog too.
Finding Echo
March 17th, we outbid the meat buyers for a lovely 12 yr old chestnut-Arab cross gelding. He was trained to ride- they said that he was a trail horse. He handled very well,and is quite nice! After getting to know him,we decided to name him Echo.
Echo- Even Better Than Expected
I am thrilled to let you know how wonderful Echo turned out to be. He is older than we thought, and does need his teeth done. Echo rides and handles like a dream. He has a lovely smooth gait, I am so happy we saved him!!!
Echo Finds a Loving Home
My good friend came out to meet him, she was looking for a good older horse for her daughter. They took him home this morning.
Later this afternoon, we went to visit. Lo and behold, what do I see as we are pulling up the driveway? The youngest daughter already riding Echo! My heart swelled, and it did bring tears to my eyes! I felt like the proudest Mom in the world!! Echo is a tolerant fellow, such a good, good boy!! Oh MY GOSH!! To think he could have gone for meat last week! YaY!!!
