\npuposes like pulling wagons, it is a cheep form of transport and can be seen
\nregularly pulling wagons full of goods, hay or farm supplies in our part of the
\nworld . The horses are hucul, they are small but very strong. A horses life is very
\nhard, there are many different \u201cpractices\u201d on how to pressure them into working
\neven when they don\u2019t want to cooperate with their owners.
\nSome of the horses we have at our small holding had hard life too. We gave them
\ncare and attention and fed them well and after a few months they got stronger
\nand stared to develop quickly. They receive much love from us, their trust in
\npeople has slowly developed. We use our horses for healing purposes, their
\nhealing power is very special, we felt the healing power ourselves. Three years
\nago when we received our first horse we were really down and finding life tough.
\nThings improved and looking back through the years we know this was the best
\npresent from God to make us healthy and happy again. In the beginning it was
\nreally hard as we didn\u2019t know anything about these wonderful animals. There were
\nno qualified people who could help us in our town. The only advise we heard was,
\n\u201cDon\u2019t stand behind the horse!\u201d \u263a

\nrope knots and has even unlocked the padlock when the key was left in it. She is
\nbeautiful and friendly and loves being with the other horses.<\/p>\n

\na horse that can jump fences. Anna, our daughter has jumped a huge barrier with
\n<\/a><\/strong>him, so my teacher in Hungary decided to give her the horse as a present.
\nChildren love to ride him, he is gentle but can run very fast with his little legs.
\nChildren must have a good feeling of rythm riding him. He is small and smart.
\nMoki – is a wonderful, handy, lovely horse and I love him very-very much!\u201d \u2013 he
\nwas bought as a present for our daughter Ester who is five years old.
\nLenke<\/strong> – I saw Lenke for the first time watching me as she was grazing at the <\/a><\/strong>\u00a0ride\u00a0of the street, she had sorrow in her eyes. I didnt realise then that she would
\nbecome one of our horses. When we first got her she was afraid of us and didn\u2019t
\nlike being touched. It has taken a lot of work to gain her confidence. She is calm
\nand very slow and is the oldest in our herd. These days Lenke comes to us herself
\nand asks for some caresses. She enjoys it so much!
\nStand by us Foundation
\nSzikra<\/strong> – is the youngest of our horses. She is very graceful, delicate motion and a
\n<\/a><\/strong>comfortable canter. She has trained verywell since being with us. She is a very
\ncurious and, friendly horse. Sikra gave birth to a foal on our farm in March 2015,
\nwe named her Kira, the father is Bandi, a beautiful stallion, I think he conquered
\nSikra (Spark) with his long mane.
\nKira<\/strong> – is a real fun maker. Always running here and there, she is very curious
\nabout everything. She likes to annoy the older mares, they are really patient with
\nher as she is still a foal… \u263a
\n<\/a><\/strong>Azhur<\/strong> – has travelled a long jouney from Poltava before he arrived to live with us. He is a
\n10 year old Orlov Trotter and is very fast and can jump really high. He is always ready for
\na gallop across the field.<\/p>\n
