Feel Good Sunday Video: A Horse Lover’s Prayer

“It’s time to pause, dismount, loosen the cinch, pull off the headstall and bit, let your trail-buddy graze while you pull up a cool spot under a tree and sip on one of my homemade Wrangler Iced Teas…yes, it’s been a tough battle and the war is far from being won.

This next week is going to be a rough one so take a few minutes to sit back, reflect and recharge on why we do what we do. Whether you are lucky enough to live with equines or not, this video will give you pause and bring a tear to your eye.

I raise my drink in honor of all those I stand shoulder to shoulder with; we will win, we will save them, each and every one of them. May God bless you all! Cheers!” ~ R.T.
