Noble Attitude went on his first visit since being hospitalized … to Bentley Commons in Hackettstown. The residents and staff were thrilled to see him and asked that he come again soon. See the last pic to learn how these little horses are therapeutic. ❤️

Ravi visited with many (over 100!) students during Cadwalader’s recent Fun Day. He received lots of love, hugs, pets, brushing and a plethora of barrettes … and he brought much excitement, joy and happiness to the children and staff. ❤️

Catching Up…
Hubbard students recently wrapped up their yearlong Equine-Assisted Empowerment Program with a special trip to the farm. During their visit, they confidently applied the skills they developed throughout the year—transitioning from working with miniature horses to grooming, leading, and riding our full-sized therapy horses, Justice and Bernie.

We couldn’t be more proud of their growth! Many began the school year with little or no experience around horses, and they’ve progressed to leading multiple therapy visits for over 300 elementary students and safely handling full-sized horses with skill and confidence.

Since September, we’ve witnessed so much change and personal growth in each of them.

A heartfelt thank you to Principal Rodriguez, counselor William Rodriguez, and dedicated volunteer Tricia Mahan for their unwavering support throughout the program. And a special thank you to Julie Stilo and Stilo Disposal for generously sponsoring the program—your support made this transformative experience possible.

After careful discussion and deliberation with our BBQ Fundraiser Committee, we’ve made the difficult decision to cancel the BBQ scheduled for Saturday, June 21st.

This decision comes in light of unexpected emergency expenses, including Noble’s recent veterinary and hospitalization bills, as well as urgent tree work that had to be done on the farm last week. These combined costs exceeded $8,000, and unfortunately, they’ve significantly impacted our ability to host the event as planned.

If you’ve already purchased tickets, we’ll be reaching out to you directly with options:

- Request a full refund
- Apply your purchase toward our Fall Fundraiser in
September
- Donate it to help cover these recent emergency
expenses

If you’re able to donate at this time, we would be most grateful. You may do so by scanning the QR code on the BBQ flyer or here

Our Noble came home from the hospital yesterday. He had a low grade fever most likely from the tube that went from his nose to his stomach ... a little infection. He is eating small bits of wet senior feed and little bits of hay at a time. Thanks so much to Dr. Aja Harvey and all of her associates from BW Furlong for taking such good care of Noble. He showed his gratitude by giving them a copy of his autobiography. Thanks to all for your prayers, love and kind words. They mean so much. I am a puddle right now. With the recent loss of our dog Amara, some of the struggles the people our horses visit and work with face daily, and Noble's colic ... it's a lot. We are all staying home today because of the weather and because I want to be able to watch everyone and make sure all are well ... in addition to me lol.

Noble's vet bill including the hospitalization and emergency visit to the farm totaled $3,000. If you'd like to help by making a small donation, we would be so very grateful. He touches so many lives and has had a lot of people praying for and asking about him. Any little bit towards his vet bill would help tremendously. 🥹❤️

Noble update. The vet called to let me know that Noble has passed manure, had his gastric tube removed and was taken off of IV fluids. They were going to reintroduce food to him today and see how he does digesting it, hand graze and walk him, and see how he is overnight and in the morning. If all goes well, he will be coming home tomorrow. 🙏

Noble is at the hospital most likely with an impaction. He was tubed and ultrasounded at the farm this morning and it was not going to resolve on its own. He’s receiving IV fluids and fluids directly into the stomach, is being sedated and has some pain relief. The vet asked if surgery was an option, should it be necessary. I hate when they ask that question. The emergency call and hospitalization without surgery will be $3kish and surgery would be at least $10k on top of that. 🥺 This is hard. I am not God. I need help and am tired of begging.
