Message from
Jeff Rubenstein (Tiny’s husband):
Thank you for visiting this site.
I need your help. On March 23rd
2009, my wonderful loving wife Tiny passed away comfortably and peacefully.
Some of you had the opportunity to spend enough time to get to
know Tiny, some may have been only able to get a quick smile and a handshake,
and some of you may have never had the opportunity to meet her. You who
were closest to Tiny know best what a special person she was. We all
benefited from the time we spent with her, but those who benefited the most by
far are the many many many
animals that Tiny rescued, treated, and cared for so passionately and
generously over her too short lifetime.
At our peak, Tiny and her staff cared for 36 horses here, along with a
variety of pigs, goats, sheep, cats, and dogs.
Some of the remaining horses are still young enough to be able to be
ridden or driven, although most are living a comfortable life of retirement.
When Tiny was still actively caring for her horses here on her
farm, I promised her that should anything ever happen to her I would do
everything in my power to ensure that each of her horses is placed in an excellent home. An excellent home is one in which the horse owner
·
Genuinely cares
passionately about the health, safety, and comfort of the horse,
·
Demonstrates the
experience, knowledge, and skills required to be able to provide
appropriate care for the health, safety, and comfort needs of the horse, and
·
Has the financial
wherewithal to be able to provide that appropriate level of care for the lifetime of the horse.
If you are such
a horse owner – or if you know of one – who would consider helping me (and
Tiny, and her horses) by offering an excellent lifetime home to one or more of
the horses, then I would very much
appreciate hearing from you.
Below you will find links to the Horse Placement Questionnaire as well as a Horse
Descriptions document (with a page describing each horse
that is available). If you can help,
please print out the questionnaire, fill it out, and send it to me at the
address on the questionnaire. Based on
information I receive from completed questionnaires, I will proceed to the next
steps in the process in order to match each horse with the best new home.
Please note
that I am not placing prices on any of the horses. Once a prospective new owner is qualified as
offering the best home for a horse or horses, and that person agrees to all the
conditions specified in our Placement Agreement, then the horse will be
transferred to that new owner at no charge.
Under certain circumstances I may be willing to help with transportation
expenses.
