Nat'l Park Service Donates to EqWBR

BIG NEWS!!!!!! The National Park Service - Petrified Forest National Park, Acting Superintendent Doug Lentz said in an email, "park horses Trooper and Gus have served the park well and both are now being officially retired.
On Monday March 5, I took a trip to Equine WellBeing Rescue Inc. just outside of Snowflake, AZ and spoke with founder/president Christine Griffin. Christine started this operation in 2006 and it has done well."

"I found the operation to be well run with a quality program and facilities."
"So, hats off to Trooper and Gus and may they enjoy the Arizona sunsets, open spaces, good grub, and peaceful retirements for many a day. And, thank you to Equine WellBeing Rescue Inc for working with Petrified Forest National Park and taking good care of two of our coworkers & friends."

Trooper arrived Wednesday night and Gus will be arriving later today.
We can't tell you how excited and humbled we are to be entrusted the National Park Service to help both Gus and Trooper and give them the retirement years they deserve.
After assessment we will probably make them available for adoption where we will look to find a loving, forever home for each.

Many, many thanks for all you do to help the rescue! Christine
