🌾 Feeding the Herd: Oh, Hay There! 🌾

Did you know it takes TWO 500lb round bales to feed our hungry herd for just FOUR days?! 😮 That’s a whole lotta hay! 🐴

Providing quality nutrition for our horses has been a priority at Transitions Equine since the very beginning. Almost all of our herd are rescues who have found a loving home with us, and they work hard in our programs to cover their own costs. Having a buffer for those slower months makes all the difference. ❤️

Your donation to our hay fund ensures our rescues always receive the care they deserve. Thank you for helping us continue to provide a safe haven and a brighter future.

Donations can be sent via e-transfer to hayfund@transitionseq.ca
Please note: We do not have a charity registered for the rescue horses therefore there will be no charitable receipt given to those who donate.

Perry and Veronica’s story:

Perry and Veronica came from CYB Farms up in Napanee, and below is what Amanda had to write. We have included the photos from Amanda as well. This is why we do what we do. A second chance at life where not only are the horses loved and spoiled, but they’re also giving back in meaningful and impactful ways.

“We would like to extend our greatest appreciation to Alisha and family for opening their hearts and homes to Perry and Veronica.

It takes a special kind of person to offer a home to these types of horses and we are eternally grateful. In a disposable culture that humans have created, these horses are deemed worthless and easily tossed away.

Perry arrived here in mid January, in deplorable condition. He had worms, lice, was significantly underweight, and needed his teeth done badly. He has an old injury to his knee preventing him from being riding sound, and when he arrived he was mentally dead to the world. I have attached his glow up photos of him in the 3.5 months we’ve had him, and I cannot wait to share them as time goes on in Alisha’s care.

Veronica has been with us for well over a year. She arrived last year in foal, and despite having DSLD in all four legs, has maintained a happy and comfortable demeanor.

Despite us not being a rescue, I will remind everyone that rescues and shelters are overflowing with animals with special needs. If you have the space, ability, and money to take in a senior or companion type, I implore you to please do so. They have so much to offer aside from saddle time, and depend on humans to provide them a soft landing.

We don’t often list our companion horses but rest assured, we have plenty of them here looking for soft landings and good homes.

Again, thank you to Alisha and Transitions Equine Experience for welcoming these two into their program. Here is my shameless plug for this amazing woman and her program!” ~ Amanda CYB Farms
