Rocky's Horse Rescue and Rehabilitation was started because of the love of horses. We are a small 501c3 trying to do our part in saving Americas horses

Danny Burrier and I started this crazy horse rescue and it has been the most satisfying journey we have taken together besides the kids and our marriage.

This post is about the 1st abused and neglected horse Chance that we took in. Chance was a huge challenge he was so scared beaten and heading for slaughter. I stepped up to the challenge thank you Theresa Anderson-Nason for sending him our way.

After 9 months and more hours and patience then you can imagine Chance has turned the final turn and is now allowing himself to be caught Brenda Creighton :). Last night he allowed Ali Biehl to pet him and then catch him. Sunday he was in his stall and allowed Dustin Etzler to pet him. All of this is new Chance has never until recently allowed anyone daily to touch him besides myself. I have always been able to except in the beginning when he would even shake in his stall when I would go in and just sit in a chair for hours.

I only wish we will continue to have this kind of success in our personal lives and with Rocky's Horse Rescue and Rehabilitation.

I know a lot of friends thought we were crazy but guess what we are and we and the horses are loving every crazy moment of it! I am only hoping we can find more horses like Chance so we can give them the opportunity to be the loving caring animal that they were meant to be.

You truely have to understand where Chance was then and where he is now to appreciate why I am writing this post.

We contribute his success to all the volunteers that come to the barn regularly that has also aided in Chance's story of abuse neglect disaster and trust.

A true life success story at our barn. And in some ways a miracle all in its own.
