Lady
I was born in 2009 and spent most of my life as an Amish cart horse, working long days pulling and carrying.
In 2024, everything changed. I was donated to Spur’n Up Hope and given a new role.
I’m still finding my place in the herd and learning a different kind of work.
Now I spend my time with people instead of pulling for them.
I work with those who need a slower pace. The ones who are unsure, overwhelmed, or just need space to settle in. I bring a steady presence and meet them without pressure.
I may be new, but I’m learning quickly.
Your support helps provide the care and time I need to fully step into this role and continue this work.
