Sending love & hugs across the miles from Australia 🙏
They are all doing wonderfully. And it's fantastic to see Boaz in such wonderful shape, his hooves look so healthy now compared to when he arrived, he is a really wonderful creature and he would be a major asset to your program, Best of Luck and Best Wishes for 2025 🐴🐎🐴🐎🐴
Glad you have prepped for winter storm weather. Your horses look to be a good "winter plump" and ready to do o.k. Nice Boaz has signs of overall underlying healing.
All the best for 2025 -- one of your best videos to date Michelle and great to see all the your horses --the future is looking rosey -- you gotta love Boaz
Hi family. Happy new years.🎉🎉 We are expecting bad weather tomorrow. Yep, getting ready.😅 Its great seeing all the horses. Thank you😊 love and blessings to all.❤
God Bless Solomon and Reuben. Do you have the "lil" ones get a little handling by ferrier-just to get them used to standing and lifting their feet for them, even if they aren't being trimmed? I am sad for you to be missing the cattle, but happy for them and for ALL the horses that makes room for at 8ERR. OMG BOAZZZZZZ his winter coat looks so good, I am hugging him through the screen! God Bless Solomon and Reuben and Michelle and Todd for giving my FAV FAV FAV Horse in the world a better life and look at him, he is the most handsome horse ever! I love you Boaz! He certainly has touched my heart and the smile he gives me is so appreciated. Michelle, look at the difference a year makes, GOD bless you for sharing him with us and for tending to him so well.
Merry Christmas and Happy Prosperous New Year dear Elrod family! All your gorgeous horses are thriving with so much care and love. I was thrilled to see that Boaz is doing so well and just enjoying Life. A very warm greetings from Australia. It is summer here.🤗
Boaz is looking so handsome. He has came a long way. Could Sophie possible have shivers? Happy New Year to you and your family. Keep up the great work. I get real excited when I see you've posted something.
Hello there! Possibly. The vet says her nervous leg holding is her breeding… we aren’t sure yet. She is just the most loving, sweet girl ever! I’ll update you all on the findings!
Mr Duke did the same thing! He was crazy picky, lost weight, hardly would even eat hay. He has sense improved tho and he bloomed after lots of changes. Sometimes baby’s just don’t wean well regardless of age. What a cute little girl. MFT is for sure on my wish list for our next horse someday :) watching JRs channel always gives me the bug for one as he talks them up so well 😂
Happy New Year to you and your family and I pray you don't get the ice!! We also are looking at varying predictions of snow (3-5 inches and some say 12 inches - I doubt) and possibly a 10th of an inch of ice. in SW OH.
While the cattle were a nice breed to have, I wasn't sure you would be able to eat or slaughter any. Now, you might have intended to breed and sell only, but they took up valuable pasture space. I am thinking, that if you would rather do the therapeutic riding, to me that seems far more sensible and up your alley.
@@8ERescueRanch I don't know whether Luna's feet are going to straighten (I would assume so) but she will remain unpapered. She is not warming up to JR, which bothers him. I have seen her respond to Emory. She responds to her voice and to grooming. BUT, Em admits being a little intimidated by her. Luna was strictly a horse used to drag/ pull wood, as I understand it. I am not sure she is broke to ride. Yet Clydesdales are usually gentle and need or want to work and are usually people oriented. I tried to explain to JR the way to her heart might be to let her pull a tiny log, just let her do something. She has the body of a 15-year-old. old, per JR (but teeth of a 20 yr old). I don't know if she could or would respond to you and work out as a therapy horse. Might be too much work.
Molly is looking good, Michelle 🫶
A therapy horse program will be amazing! ❤ 🙏!!!!!!!!!
It is our dream! ❤️

We do handle their feet and do basic trimming ourselves for the littles!
Boaz loves you!!!! 🖤

Oh yikes! Praying for you all to stay safe and warm!!!!
I absolutely love your channel Michelle! Your such an amazing family!! I came from Homestead horsemanship
Welcome! So glad you are here! 🫶🏼
On the paso mare it could potentially be kissing spine too.. I’ve recently learned about that!
Yes, I have considered that condition too!
Bless your heart after all those feet being trimmed (even if all you had to do was catch and manage them)...!! 😂😂😂
IKR! I felt terrible complaining about my aches and pains but I have 20+ years on sweet Solomon. 🤣
@8ERescueRanch Don't! We feel bad watching Reuben do as many as 18 at Homestead, esp. when it includes 4 Clydesdales!
Yes, when we meet him at a local farm he does about 12-14 each time. Tough men!

I am thinking, that if you would rather do the therapeutic riding, to me that seems far more sensible and up your alley.
There are also therapy riding programs for veterans. It seems it helps to ride... to get people to TALK.😊
We felt it was the best choice for this season of our lives! 🫶🏼
