3 years ago, I discovered a new passion in my life – horses! I heard about a horse rescue who needed volunteers, and experience wasn’t required! So I went for a tour, and fell head over heels with the horses! I spent so much not only volunteering, but learning anything and everything I could, from reading books, watching videos, and going to clinics. In my second year, I had the opportunity to shareboard (partially care for) a beautiful thoroughbred named Duchess. I adored her. During that time I was also fortunate to receive groundwork lessons from student families with horses, as I do not ride due to neck issues. By January of 2024 I also was volunteering with HorsePower Therapeutic Riding in St Charles. Early on, I connected with a mini named Misty, and her owner invited me to shareboard her that March, which I happily accepted. Around that time, I stopped with the first rescue, and focused my time more on HorsePower and Misty. Sadly, my time with Duchess ended in the spring due to family changes with her owners,  2 months later, I met a wonderful quarter horse, Cajee, who I then shareboarded until last month. He was a wonderful horse, but unfortunately had moved to barn that was too far away from St Charles. 
So now, my main focus is Misty! 

My favorite equines!
