Finger Lakes Finests is WAY bigger than any one person, and we continue to grow and thrive and place hundreds of horses each year even as some former volunteers move on to other things, as many other former volunteers have done over the 8 or so years that various people have been doing their little bit to help the horses at Finger Lakes find new homes. And we have gained some wonderful new volunteers who join the ongoing group with its excellent horse knowledge… and who have already discovered the addictive lure of Finests! (two of our new volunteers have already added Finests to their lives.)
The horse knowledge of our current group includes people who specialize in H/J, in dressage, in eventing, in pleasure riding, in pedigrees for racing and for sport, and in the racetrack world itself. As one person with good horse knowledge moves on to other endeavors, we add other people with excellent horse knowledge. And we are so gratified by the hundreds of people – literally – who tell us over and over again how much they love the website and how much easier it is to browse the available horses than pro-boards ever was. The positive response from the trainers and assistants and grooms at the track has been especially overwhelming and heartwarming.
Now let’s focus on the wonderful horses listed who all need loving new homes.
All the horses care about is whether we have mints to give them when we take their photos and whether a good caring person will step up to give them a good new life of love and attention and lots of good food!
