Aly + Bindi
At this point I had seen lots of great horses but none of them made me think “I cannot live without this horse”; that is until I met Bindi. Bindi was beautiful! She was more than anything I could have ever dreamed up in my head.
Gracie + Gordon
He looked up at us and we looked at him and knew immediately he was our horse. We couldn’t be happier with our choice to adopt. He gives us his everything, every single day. We found our forever horse through adoption.

Kendra + Cinnabar + Misty
Her name was Cinnabar and I like to think that she adopted me. She told me in no uncertain terms that she was meant to come home with me. I rode her and took her for a trail ride with some of the ranch staff.
Tara + Vera
I didn’t just pick her, she picked me. Here was this horse that no one could touch, and she chooses to love me. I know that she’s my “right horse”, because she has shown me time and time again that she sees me as her right person.

Dusty + Belle
Seven months after I found Belle, I founded AHRE with the rescue of Helena. I’m asked often if Belle was a rescue. I did rescue her to some degree and she to some degree, she rescued me.
Barbara + Aida
As time progressed, I noticed that she was getting somewhat round around the edges. A blood test was performed in July 2017 and to everyone’s surprise, she was confirmed in foal. Baby Bunny will soon be one year old. My three horses are my loves and my best friends ever.
Alex + Scotty
My big, lanky Thoroughbred who is supposed to be an English horse is a big, tall, neck-reining trail boss! Scotty ended up 14th in Ranch Work at the makeover and received a TCA (Thoroughbred charities of America) award in Ranch Work at the Retired Racehorse Project.
Joy and Sugarfoot
I had not intended on adopting a horse that day, but in that moment, I knew I had to have her. It was an instant heart connection. I did not grow up with horses nor have had a lot of hands on experience, but Sugarfoot proved to be such a gentle and patient teacher.
