Running a horse rescue can be overwhelming – especially when you try your hardest to do it right. You may start the day medicating sick horses, feeding and mucking manure. You rush to the computer to work on the website and social media, then spend mid morning with the farrier, trainer or vet. Then it’s off to the feed store to stock up for the growing herd. You head back home to unload and mix grain and realize the horses have produced a whole new batch of manure, just in case you were bored! Muck again. Medicate and feed sick horses. You hope you can make it through the evening feeding before the sun goes down because you can’t afford lights for all the shelters.
Like I said, it can be overwhelming. Swingin’ D could not survive without the volunteers who share their valuable time with us and our horses.
