Token Has A Home With Repeat Adopter :o)
This is Flynn and Lilly!
They were adopted by Emilio and Loretta Capobianco way back in early 2005 and have been living a great life...sadly, Emilio's horse Brutus (quarter horse) passed away suddenly about 3 weeks ago, he had been with Emilio since he was 3 and he passed away at age 21.
Emilio he had seen the Angel Acres newsletter looking for a home and gave me a call. Don't tell anyone but I was SSOOO excited because I knew that this would be an amazing forever home for Token and I was trying to play it cool, but inside I was THRILLED because I knew this was a GREAT match and when he said, "well, Token will have a forever home here with us, if you'd like us to adopt him". I could NOT have been happier!
Token is a super duper nice boy and he will make this family incredibly happy! He is now pending adoption to The Capobianco family and will head to his new home in the next week or two. Super duper big thanks to the family for adopting their 3rd Angel Acres horse...
Interesting tidbit - click here - Flynn was sold as the highest selling yearling in Texas and West Point Thoroughbreds (breeder) stepped up to the plate the minute we called to tell them that we had pulled him from the kill pen. You won't believe the photo and details that goes along with that story...

- Every time you go directly to a participating GoodShop store, the toolbar will highlight what percentage of your purchase will be donated to your cause and if any coupons are available!
- Please note, a handful of merchants still require that you visit GoodShop first and click through to the store. This will be apparent because the donation button will not light up. For Amazon and eBay, you can simply click on the icon on the toolbar to get to the sites.

For My Fellow Rescuers - Horse, Dog, Cat - ETC.
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings;
but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly.
So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.” Theodore Roosevelt
