One afternoon, I picked the kids up from school early and drove to a horse sheltor. I had never heard of one before until I saw an advertisement. Our children love horses so we thought we would see if we could be of some service to them. We had such an eye opener and a wonderful experience.
A lady and man do this for a living. They receive money all from donations and this is what they do for a living. Not only did they have horses, but many other animals as well. But they had 42 horses they are taking care of at the time. All of them are super sick and lacking nutrition. They work off of all donations and voluteers to help them out. 
They try to find homes for the horses but most the time they are unable to. Along with all 42 horses come with quite the story to tell. Most of them came to the horse shelter because of tough times. The owners could no longer afford to take care of them let alone feed them. So they gave them to the shelter in hopes they could help.
These two horses were Kallee's most favorite. She could hardly wait to take care of them and see if she could help them out.
We had a great experience with all 42 horses. We hope when the weather warms up we can go back and help out. We just wish it wasn't over a hour away. But we enjoyed the day together along with the heart warming experience
