Alpacas placed in foster home for the winter

Poden, Blue, and Q were placed in foster care at Lori's house for the winter. Lori has two rescued horses and a old goat that was rescued from the Hayden fire many years ago. Lori has a nice big barn with separate indoor stall and runs. Leah, Grace, and Josh helped get them in their new temporary home.
 Alpacas get loaded up into a nice clean trailer.
 Q is happy to get to go to such a nice place for the winter.
They get put into their new stall for the winter. Josh, Grace, and Leah take the halters off of the alpacas. 
The three alpacas enjoy their new home, and all the weeds they get to eat.

Dealer's Eye

We were able to haul Dealer to Terolyn Horse Rescue and join in Dr. Dale Rice's farm visit. He did different x-rays, shots, examinations, and whatever else was needed. Dr. Rice examines the x-rays while Terri Allen, the owner of Terolyn and Shawna stand by to help.
Dealer has a discoloration in his eye due to his past history of eye cancer. It was important to get it checked.
Shawna vet tech Terrylyn dye the eye surface.
They use a black out tent to check out his eye.
He had all his equipment to do  multi examinations on the other rescues. Good news, it's not cancer, only a small injury that should heal with daily medication. We are all so glad. Dealer will be staying at Terolyn and taken care of by Ryann Allen.

New ducks

We got two new ducks here at the rescue. One is a Pomeranian named Cookies, and the other is a Rouen named Poseidon. Mara has formed a animal helping club. She goes to a lake to capture pet ducks that were dumped there. She knows they won't survive the winter so she places them here so they can have a great life. These last two were happy to join the 10 others. Thanks to here and her dad, the ducks got a cleaned out duck pond.

Animal Walk

 Aubrey's birthday was this past Saturday. Our volunteer Kevin gave the tour to her family. She helps greet our new horse Andi. Bucky the llama prepares for the walk.
She holds Millie in preparation on her walk.
 Leah helps take the alpacas for a walk.
 The alpacas and llamas enjoy the walk.
The animals are on their way back to the farm. They enjoy walks and the extra attention.

New horse from Terolyn Horse Rescue

We got a new horse from Terolyn Horse Rescue. Her name is Andi. This beautiful mare was relinquished to Terolyn Horse Rescue. She is now with us and these two palomino mares have bonded well. They both love all the attention and love our volunteers give them.
 She gets along with the llamas,
 Molly the Zebu,
and the goats.
