I promise to give everyone some updates soon, it's been a crazy few weeks here at Project Sage, just want to say a quick congrats to Rob and family on their adoption of Savannah! Shes a special girl!

We are looking for loving foster families if anyone is interested please email me!

Our comedy night fundraiser is in just one week!!! We are hoping for a large turnout so please email leebag63@aol.com if you would like to attend. Last Saturday we took in a grey TB gelding who is approx 250 lbs under weight, we've named him Grady, it's a miricale he has survived this long so we are praying he keeps fighting. Comedy Night will help pay for Gradys growing vet bills. Please attend this event in support of Grady and the other horses at Project Sage. I will post some pictures of Grady soon or you can see o
on my facebook page Brittany - Project Sage! Send me a friend request to see hour by hour updates of everything that goes on at our farm! Have a nice weekend everyone!

Some updates for everyone!  Congrats to Julie on her adoption of Viola, Congrats to Heather on her adoption of Opie, Congrats to Sue on her adoption of Cupcake!  Three wonderful horses were able to find homes this past week!  Such a great week for Project Sage!

Everyone take a moment and email some horse friends about the horses we currently have for adoption!  Let's help them find homes before the winter hits.  All of these horses deserve loving homes, please help them get that home!

Other updates...We went the Hampton Classic for Grand Prix Day and were able to walk Cosmo, Anna, Corona, and Lola through the ring before the classes started in front of thousands of people!  The horses did amazing and were great advocates for rescued horses.  I was so proud to see them walking through the ring!  Georgina Bloomberg stood with Lola for some pictures with the press, Lola was a super star! 

Our Comedy Night Fundraiser is October 8th!  If you would like to come please e-mail leebag63@aol.com to purchase your ticket NOW! 

We need fosters for the winter, we have some great horses that could use some one on one care.  If you are interested please e-mail me at projectsagehorserescue@gmail.com.  It's very rewarding to spend time with a rescue horse and watch them blossom and find a forever home!

Everyone have a wonderful weekend!

One of my awesome adopters just make this, it's a great video!

Elvis, Cowboy, and Sarah all found homes last week!  I'm thrilled for all of them!  Since the spring we have placed over 25 horses into new homes, a true accomplishment!  People ask me how I place so many horses every month, my anwser is always the same, the team I have that supports Project Sage!  I have an incredible trainer who donates 20+ hours a week riding and training all of our horses.  Melissa is a true god send, she matches potential adopters with the perfect horse.  Next I have a fundraising coordinator who helps put together some of the most amazing fundraisers!  We have at least two fundraisers a month scaling from something simple like a car wash to something that takes months to plan such as a dinner dance.  I have TONS of volunteers who come up and scrub buckets, muck stalls, pick paddocks, clean tack, etc.  The list goes on and on!  I have an amazing photographer who keeps our web site UTD at all times with new pictures and info.  I have a family that supports me and helps me every single day.  I have a wonderful QT barn and shipper that all work hard to make out of state adoptions possible!  I have a great support system, it's our key to having successful adoptions!  So thank you to our wonderful team who donates so many hours each week to help the horses at Project Sage, I could not do this without you all!

We are leaving for Sugar Creek Horse Auction tomorrow morning, wish us luck!!!

This week has been a very busy one for us! Just want to say a quick congrats to Joey on her adoption of Charlotte and Suzie, Gaile on her adoption of Sprite and Lincoln. We are thrilled that so many of our horses are finding wonderful homes.

All of our other horses are doing well. Halia, Pandora, Amico, and Storm are now on our farm and are ready to find their forever homes. They are a great group of horses so we hope they can find homes over the summer.

It came to our attention that a fellow rescue will be closing their doors. We will be taking in 6 horses from this rescue to place into new homes. Donations are needed to help cover their hay and grain. This was unexpected for us so any help is greatly appreciated. You can donate right now via paypal.com. Just go on that site and you can make a donation right from your credit card. Our paypal address is projectsagehorserescue@gmail.com. These horses will all be looking for homes so please keep checking the site for updates.

Today we ventured to PA to pick up two TB geldings that needed a safe haven. They are both chestnuts, very sweet, both 7 years old. If anyone is in the market for a show prospect these are both nice horses. We will get them listed on the horses page ASAP!

We were also able to stop at New Holland horse auction today. We rescued a large Belgian that already has a home waiting for her on LI. We were also able to rescue 2 TB mares that I suspect were brood mares. They both have tons of cuts and scrapes and are in PA for some rehab and quarantine. It was a long day, watched tons of horses ship to slaughter, it's something that you can't get used to, watching healthy horses getting on trucks destined for a cruel ending.

So as you can tell we have been very busy, tons of horses coming in that will need new homes so please take a moment and cross post the horses we have for adoption. You could be part of giving a horse a happy ending. If you have a few spare bucks please consider donating, it will help us continue to help horses from bad situations and auction houses.

Hope everyone is staying cool, remember to hose your horses! :)

Thanks to Melissa for letting me update my blog from her iPad!!!
