She's Here!

Lady Guinevere has arrived safely and is settling into her new stall. We are giving her several days to adjust, so are moving slowly. She is in QT for 30 days to prevent any possible spread of anything she may have picked up at the auction, but seeing she is our only horse, that isn't an issue.

She seems quite content in her new home. She has all the hay she wants, and a nice snug stall with clean straw. We are thrilled to have her here!

Introducing.....

Lady Guinevere.

This beautiful young lady came out of Camelot Horse Auction in NJ. We have watched their auction for quite some time, have seen many beautiful horses come and go, but there was something about this girl's expression that just called to us. A simple phone call and she was ours. If she hadn't been adopted, her future was the slaughter house. This is so sad in todays day and age, but it is still happening. Although horse slaughter is banned in the USA, many of our horses are still shipped to Mexico or Canada to face that fate.

So, we have a horse! And we had to name her Lady Guinevere, after all she came from Camelot.

She is a fine young filly approx 1-2 years of age. Someone spent some time with her as she is halter broke and walks decently on a lead. She is not skittish or spooky, but is rather curious and inquisitive. She has a sense of humor too!

She needs some work, needs some weight, and has rain rot over much of her coat. But time, care, food and love will cure all of those. Above and below are her pictures from the auction, certainly not much to look at. It was that spark in her eye, a look that said "do not give up on me".

Just wait.....give us a couple of months and a beautiful swan is going to blossom.

Poor girl, all muddy and covered in rain rot

This side is a little better, but not much.


Ready and waiting for Lady to arrive.
