Antoinestale Antoine and his specially-abled pack face adversity with incredible resiliency and dogged determination. His book and stuffie are available in link below.

Follow along for their healing journeys, adventures about the farm, and pack pet therapy visits. Antoine’s journey is one of love, determination and friendship. Born with rigid paralysis of his hind legs—a complication of the infection Neospora, Antoine was rescued by Janet Curran, a longtime animal advocate in Kansas, and brought to Colorado State University for treatment. His subsequent rehabili

tation led him to Connie Fredman’s Canine Health Resort in Colorado where he learned to walk again. Now his life is now filled with playful days, continued rehabilition and giving back to others as therapy dog.

April 26 is National Help a Horse Day and it encourages horse lovers and advocates to join forces and protect abused horses. We support the work of horse rescues and currently have three of our own adopted horses.

Frankie and Apollo, two deeply bonded rescued Percheron horses, have found their happily ever after here. We surmise they must have worked in the North Country for years until their owner no longer found them useful and they ended at auction where they were separated.

Frankie and Apollo ended up in two different horse rescues.
By chance it was discovered they were a bonded pair and after quarantine they were reunited here.

The love between these two horses is truly undeniable and it's truly heartwarming to see them roaming peacefully in greener pastures these days.

THROWBACK THURSDAY MOMENT.
Most of my local friends know where to find me
if I’m not romping in the pasture, wading in the pond, or getting lost in the fields. Weather permitting, you will find me in the back of the hatch of my Subaru, spreading my own kind of special love.

Earth Day is everyday here on the farm where we connect daily with nature. Whether digging or rolling in the dirt, grazing or running through the pastures, or taking a dip in the pond, Mother Nature heals us along the way.

Minnie is loving on her big brother, Ash and who can blame her? He’s a real showstopper!



Video description: Ash is a five-year-old Belgian Tervuren playing with one- year-old Minnie kitty. Ash found his way here after his previous owners didn't treat him for a calcium deficiency and Connie fostered him through his medical treatment for his breeder. Ash is a show quality Tervuren and had actually won in competitions for his breed. After his condition was remedied his breeder felt this was a better environment for an active dog like Ash. Connie agreed and so we are fortunate to have this beauty as part of our family.

Deanna assesses Antoine and finds his muscles a bit looser than usual and as always, Minnie buts her head in to survey the situation.



Video description: Antoine is a 14 year-old Siberian husky that was born with a parasite which left deformities to his hind legs. Antoine also had two cervical spine disk surgeries in more recent years. His lifelong physical therapist, Deanna takes some time assessing his overall orthopedic status and then goes to work with manual therapies and laser treatment to loosen muscles and create great range of motion. Antoine enjoys a lick mat with frozen beef pate and a Kong stuffed with peanut butter cookies.
