Unbridled Spirits OTTB

Puerto Rican Princess Terra Luna — where the ocean breeze meets the freedom of the open pasture.

When horses are truly happy, you’ll find them doing something they don’t allow themselves to do unless they feel completely safe — laying down together. One horse usually stays standing to keep watch, but in a place of trust and peace, a whole herd may rest side by side, stretched out in the sun.

“Oh, you’re stressed? Tell me again how hard your life is while I dodge flies with my eyeballs and try not to spook at a leaf.” Mishegas

🐎 Happy Thoroughbred Thursday! 🌾

Grace. Power. Heart. ❤️

There’s nothing quite like the spirit of a TB — bold on the track, gentle in the barn, & always full of fire. 💫

Here’s to the champions of our hearts — past, present, and future. 💚

🐎 Macho & Mucho Chrome W/Hawk Is Ready Photo bombing!

The sunlight setting was brilliant tonight, no filters, no light enhancements.

My instinct was to brush the mud off, and untangle his mane, but the pure brilliance of the red sun contrasting with his bay color is so authentic.

Good night from Majestic Spring.

Monday morning giddy-up!

With Mucho Chrome and Adde ❤️ Adde has not been released yet from her doctors to ride, (she’s recovering from Shoulder surgery ) but it doesn’t stop her from coming out to see Mucho Chrome and longe him, western. Yee-Haw!

#thoroughbredAftetcare

From learning horsemanship to barn management, USTRR’s varied Youth Ambassador programs help build life skills, confidence, and friendships. And together, we can ensure that every OTTB at Unbridled has a tomorrow filled with hope, healing, and care.

Breathing a sigh, as warmer air moves through this week.

The bond between horses can teach us humans how to better communicate with one another, horses teach empathy, patience, and the value of being present. Working with horse is about partnership, not dominance.

Horses' heart rates slow when they are around people
— proof that they love us. ❤️

Make it a great Monday fans!

It may look as though Majestic Spring is fighting with Nagahyde, but rearing up with his front legs at her or pawing the ground are often signs that they are enjoying themselves. Horses generally won't play with each other unless they're happy.

At USTRR Equine rehabilitation is a process that we use to help our resident OTTB’s regain their function and well-being after an injury, illness, or inactivity.

Our Goal is to Restore the horse's ability to function without pain, Help build physical resilience, and Maintain mental well-being.

Let the magic begin!

What horses teach humans is ancient wisdom, the opportunities of holding code, in a magical way leading you by the essence of inspiration, the ability to empower us spiritually. We honor our horses, and all horses and are so very humble to bring their voices and wisdom forward to you.

HO HOHO HOLD YOUR HORSES !

Gracias, que tengas buenas noches.
