It takes a village

Heart of Phoenix Horse Rescue (HOP) has gone above and beyond for Jaina!

• HOP went to Texas to respond to a group’s need for help with a large group of feral horses;

• HOP has committed to finding a path forward for Jaina;

• HOP has used its large nationwide-network to partner her with the right trainers to give her every chance possible to succeed.

Thank you to all the professional trainers who have stepped up for this girl!

• Rockin’ H Farms (Colby O’Connor) of Kentucky started working with Jaina in November 2021;

• Gamilah Unbridled (Patrick Sullivan and Avery Allubaugh) of Texas—August 2022-October 2023; and

• Gary Yeager of Florida—October 2023-December 2023.

Together they have made a difference. There is hope!

In the end, it is everyone’s professional opinion that after 2+ years of professional training that Jaina will not be safe to adopt-out as a riding or driving horse.

LTC has stepped in as a gateway before sending Jaina back to HOP to see if she can become an adoptable companion horse in 2024. After 2 months, LTC has hope! Jaina is a beautiful and kind soul—she is trying and making progress every day!
