Saturday

Another busy Saturday at Shiloh...

We have been working hard on getting our Shiloh Shop set up and it looks like it is finally ready! Huge thanks to Sandi and John who have been working very hard to get it open. The Shiloh Shop will have all our Shiloh Gear (t-shirts, visors, hats, etc), beaded horse shoes, DVDs and Books, new and used equipment, etc available for donations. We are always accepting donations of used equipment, riding clothes, etc to put in our store. All proceeds go to feeding the horses so make sure you check it out on your next visit to the rescue!

Salsa and Dave...

A busy day with lots of activity. Many Boarders were out riding and enjoying their horses and Sabine held a Basic Horsemanship class.

We were even able to go on a short trail. Sally and Sage and Tanis and I led the group out of the ranch...

Lots of dust, but we had a good time. Dave and Numerous, Sally and Sage, Kelly and Priceless (Kelly is my sister-in-law), Abbey on Moses and Emily on Little Dude.
Just to show you how horses can get into trouble anywhere and out of the blue- Napa pawed on the feed cart as they were in the pasture feeding hay. She got her foot stuck by the hitch and tore up her skin on her Cannon bone. Luckily, although there was a lot of blood, it was superficial and she will be just fine. We wrapped her up and started her on antibiotics. We walk all of the pastures daily to make sure there is nothing that can hurt the horses and then one of them goes ahead and sticks her foot in the gator and trailer...

Salsa greeted some visitors...
Emily and Dude...

One of the Bungalow horses broke a water spigot in the night and completely flooded the Bungalows. But, it was so hot out that the horses and the pigs enjoyed playing in the water.
