Working Wives & Bachelorettes: A Second Chance Through Last Chance Corral

A little less than a y

ear ago, a friend of mine went above and beyond and adopted two orphan foals from Last Chance Corral – an organization out of Ohio that is dedicated to rescuing and rehoming unwanted horses and foals.

These foals were just days old when she brought them home, and dedicated herself to becoming their “mothers.” My friend is a horse trainer, a breeder and professional horsewoman, but taking on two young, VERY needy orphaned babies was something she had never tackled before.

For nights, she slept in the barn, kept them wrapped in blankets, and woke at the wee hours of the morning to feed them. They depended on her.

Each year hundreds of orphaned foals come through the doors at Last Chance Corral, looking for homes and families to dedicate themselves to them. I know a number of people who have taken on this challenge, and given these by-products of the racing industry new homes and new beginnings. They are awesome!

The team at Last Chance Corral works solely off of donations and volunteers, but makes it work. They are able to save hundreds of foals each year.

This organization is something I believe it. It is a cause I support.

January started foaling season in the racing industry, and Last Chance Corral just received their first group of rescue babies looking for new homes. I know many of our readers

probably aren’t horse people, and could care less about this organization. However, I encourage you all to find a cause you support and spread the word and awareness on this cause.That is all I want to do.

I want to raise awareness for a cause I support. Read more about Last Chance Corral, their purpose, nurse mare foals and adoption.
