We have a very special surprise! And a true closure. I am so excited to share this news. For me, this is an extraordinary example of teamwork, belief, like mind goals, risk and chance. This would not have been possible without all the pieces working together and the result is remarkable. Yes, this is the same horse. And today he has been reunited with his papers! This is Candelite Sir Cedric also known to his inner circle as Gunner. Adopted by and loved by his mom, April Salta. Surprise April!!! Gunner was pulled from Unadilla Auction on a dark winter night in 2015 with the help of some friends. He was a colt, withdrawn, combative, labeled as dangerous. $35 dollars pulled him from his fate along with the belief and faith his life could get better. Sophia's Oasis for Equines Inc (S.O.F.E.) had an opening for this troubled soul. From NY he went to MD to begin his training with Jacqueline Nichole Curry-Flynt. It was there, and after much time with him, that April met him and it was love at first sight. During this time we found him through DNA. We soon learned that his breeder had passed away and Gunner was lost in a family dispute. His registration had been started, but not completed. The family was relieved to know of Gunner's story and Laura Zellweger has been a donor and supporter of the work SOFE had done.

Sniper came to us young, unbroken, and a stud. When we had our vet out we found out he was a cryptorchid, at this point we took him to Virginia Tech to have the surgery to geld him. After recovery and some time to mature training began. This guy was perfect from the beginning. Here he is now all grown up and living a fantastic life.

Dylan was pulled from a slaughter auction, labeled dangerous and then ended up with us. After many hours, patience, and love the fear slowly left this horses eyes. He started to enjoy life. Once he was under saddle and much calmer Dylan found his own family. He loves living with them and is spoiled rotten. This is truly a happy ending, Dylan simply wanted love and someone to tell him that we don't have to run from butterfly's. Here he is today being the perfect gentleman that no one expected him to be. This is what we do and why we exist, horses that everyone has lost hope in or have been deemed untrainable still deserve one last chance.

Danny. He was an owner surrender and was untrained. Danny was one of our first adoptions. He has turned in to quite the good boy. Message from Owner: He's super quiet, calm around small animals and been exposed to cows out in the pasture. He neck reins and I have ridden him in just a halter using my finger tips on his neck. He is also a regular at Cedarville State park, Oak Ridge Park, Maxwell Hall. We will work on conditioning over the winter and I hope to give him his start in Western dressage next spring. If anyone has any questions about him, let me know. Look for him on the trails this fall since I just got cleared by the doc to ride yesterday. I'll post some more pics. Thanks S.O.F.E for the opportunity to own a great horse like Dan!!!
