3 Codes to live by:

(i) If it's not yours, don't take it.
If it's not true, don't say it.
If it's not right, don't do it."
- Cowboy Code

(ii) " Life will change without our permission.
It's our attitude that will determine the
ride." - Christine E. Ferguson

(iii) Life is good but a horse make it better. "
- Jan van Wyk

On a day-to-day basis, it is important to have some form of moral compass by which we live and thrive. Routines can often become mundane and even boring, and we, therefore, need we be solidly grounded in ourselves.
We must explore ways that are different from what we are accustomed to so that we continue learning and growing. At HWH, we interact not only with persons of different backgrounds, both foreign and local, but also closely with dogs, cats, and goats. We are challenged to be a little more patient and understand animals' needs.
Keeping horses in mind, we sometimes learn in silence, with a watchful presence, and listen attentively.

Resilience

The Oxford dictionary explains resilience as the capacity to withstand or to recover from difficulties.
How do horses show resilience? Horses possess calming behaviors like snorting and chewing, which help them recover after stress incidents; they have the ability to be present and remain calm even in uncertain situations.
What can we learn from horses? As we go about our daily lives, we can most certainly mirror some of their behaviors such as calmness. Through observation, we can learn to be more grounded and patient, thereby gaining part of their strong and resilient nature.

Remember: " The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall" - Nelson Mandela

Bloom from the inside out

Appreciate your life.
Accept what you cannot control.
Understand your journey on lovely Planet Earth --
Question your presence and purpose in the world -
Observe keenly. Be real.
Be grateful every day for ALL
your blessings.

A note from one of our volunteers

For the love of dogs:
"A dog will teach you unconditional love. If you can have that in your life, things won't be too bad" - Robert Wagner.

Growing up in Trinidad, we always had dogs: Blondie, Patches, Ninja, and my own pompeck BJ. Burials happened in the yard near the Julie mango and fig trees.
When I left Trinidad and lived in the USA , we had Peaches: a small black terrier Pekinese. Peaches gave my family and I 19 doggy years, and when we had to eventually put her down, I could not bear the pain of losing her for many years afterward.

In total, there are 15 dogs living here at HWH, and currently, two rescue dogs that need homes and, most of all, your love and care: Popcorn and Onix. Onix is a skinny black mixed hunting dog with a white belly and white undertones on the face and paws. She is very friendly, loves walking trails, and ends with a happy swim in the ocean.

Besides the fact that dogs are excellent companions, are confident and independent, they are as smart as a two-year old, and can see in the dark. Their sense of smell has been described as 40 times better than ours. Also, among their many characteristics and because they possess their own internal clocks, dogs possess the strong ability to predict danger and also the weather.
In life, dogs teach us patience. They are loyal and adaptable.They often sense and help to change our bad moods whenever we retreat from them; they Never give up on us. Dogs are reliable, and don't ask for anything in return except love. They lift our spirits and wait to greet us every day with pure joy.

If you are interested in adopting any of the two dogs mentioned and making them a special part of your home and life, please contact us at 305-2000.
