Success Stories 5
Dear SAD supporters and adoptive families: We appolgize for the delay in the posting of our 2007 Success Stories. Our focus has been on the horses in rehabilitation and improving/upgrading shelters, fencing, etc. When time is short, it is the website updates that suffer, but never, ever the horses in our care.
Enjoy! A & H

"Lexus"
(Known as "Tony" by students who knew him, loved him and took lessons on him.)
Aprox. 22 year old Clyde/Hackney Cross Gelding. Adopted May, 2007
Due to the harassment we received from the riding school who sold Lexus to a meat buyer, (after their students recognized him on our site), we feel it is best to keep his new, loving family's info private.
