Lacey enjoying Spring grass
Lacey, the OTTB mare who has been here since December, has found a home with a wonderful woman in Colorado. If all goes as planned, Lacey will be leaving here on Monday morning to start her new life.
I agreed to board Lacey here after she was rescued (for a second time) from an auction in central Kansas. She had been rescued once before, and adopted out to a fellow who sent her to another auction. Thankfully, someone who knew of her was able to purchase her from the man who was going to send her to slaughter . . .
Another Colorado woman who has worked to help place other OTTBs, presented Lacey's need to a friend there who is a hunter/jumper trainer with a few students. Lacey will be loved and trained, gently and firmly and consistently . . . What more can we ask for our horses?
Awww, I'm glad she finally found a good home... I can't believe one of her former adopters sent her to slaughter again!! Grrrrrr.
ReplyDeleteShe looks very happy there. Thank you for saving her!
