Hank's Back

Regarding Henry whose story is on our blog, healinghenry.blogspot.com

Update on Hank: As of 4-25-2010, pre and post-trim, there was no sign of lameness in the arena while at a trot, under a rider. We will continue to watch changes in Hank's hooves such as sloughing of retained sole and if he continues to improve, he will be moved from the rehab list to the list of horses in recovery! Go Hank!

BUSY! BUSY! BUSY!

Well, I'm finally almost finished with the new website for the Rainier Equine Hoof Recovery Center !  Yay!  Along with that I've been working on the DVD, "How To Trim Your Barefoot Horse".

With my hubby's help, I've been taking care of 20 head of equines, helping with my grandkids and working on customers horses!  Whew! I have been a busy gal!


I got to help out with a cute little rescue pony, Jake, who is at Wildwood Pony Rescue in Fall City. I will be seeing him again on the 10th when Pam hauls him to meet me at Dr. Dick and Kathy Vetter's new clinic in Buckley.  I sure hope we can get this little guy back to normal after a few trims.

The completed DVD is in the mail to me and I will be shipping it soon to the packaging company along with my artwork. And that should be about a 7 day turnaround. Then I will publish the page of my website so it can be purchased on there through Paypal. Currently I'm considering the cost of the DVD to be under $70. Proceeds from the DVD will benefit the horses we are caring for here at the REHRC, as well as cover some of the production costs.


Old horses that are wonderful with kids are worth their weight in gold.  I never thought I'd be calling my amazing trail horse an "old kid's horse" but she's 22 now so I guess I have to face facts.  She and I  have been together since she turned 8 years old and we'll be together until one of us kicks the bucket.



Thank you so much for your support. I’ll keep you posted.

Okay so coming to the farm isn't all about the horses for these guys!
