🐴 **A Little About How We Do Things at Tiny Hiney Farm** 🫏
With so many new faces following our little farm lately, we thought it might be a good time to share a little more about how we operate behind the scenes. No nonsense, no sugar coating, just simply laid out of who we are, what we do, and how we do it. ❤️
Tiny Hiney Farm, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit equine rescue, and while you see plenty of the fun, silly and heartwarming moments here, there's a whole lot that happens behind the Facebook posts.
👉We do not train for others.
👉We do not having a riding program.
👉 We do not board.
👉We do not claim to know every little thing. Even the most experienced still learn.
Every animal that comes into our care is treated as an **individual**.
There is no one-size-fits-all timeline. Some need medical care. Some need groceries. Some need training and handling. Some simply need time to decompress and learn that they're safe. We meet them where they are and make decisions based on what THAT animal needs.
🐴 **Not every animal who comes here will stay forever.**
Part of rescue is sometimes helping an animal become healthy, safe and prepared enough to move into a wonderful permanent home. When we believe an animal may eventually be a good adoption candidate, we begin considering that future — but there is never a deadline to get them out the door.
Some cases we take on as sanctuary cases, where they will live their lives out here at Tiny Hiney Farm, Inc.
🫏 **Adoption is a process, not a transaction.**
Our goal isn't simply finding *a* home. It's finding the **right home**. Potential adopters are evaluated based on the individual animal's needs, and an animal stays right here until we're comfortable with the placement.
🩺 **Health and welfare decisions are made individually.**
We work with our veterinary and equine professionals when making decisions regarding medical care, farrier needs, nutrition, training and overall welfare. What is appropriate for one animal isn't necessarily appropriate for another.
❤️ **Our responsibility doesn't begin or end with how an animal arrived here.**
Animals can come into rescue through many different circumstances. Once they're part of our program, our responsibility is to provide appropriate care and determine the best future for that individual animal.
💰 **Donations support the mission.**
When we fundraise for hay, feed, veterinary care, farrier care and the everyday expenses of running the rescue, those funds support our rescue program and the animals in our care unless we specifically designate otherwise. Every bag of feed, bale of hay, hoof trim and veterinary visit adds up — and we're incredibly grateful for the people who help us keep doing it. We do not currently get grants, everything comes out of our own pockets and from supporters like you.
📚 **We're always learning.**
We don't pretend to know everything. Good rescue means continuing to learn, asking professionals for guidance, adjusting when something isn't working and doing better as we know better. We are always ready and willing.
Most importantly...
**Questions are welcome here.**
We're happy to talk about what we do, why we do it and what goes into caring for our herd. Transparency matters to us, and so does respectful conversation. If you ever have a question or even want to make an appt to come out and talk with us about the rescue/herd, we'd love to have the opportunity to answer any questions you have.
We're a small rescue with a big herd, a lot of manure, probably too many feed buckets, and one very simple goal:
❤️ Doing right by the animal in front of us.
That's Tiny Hiney Farm, Inc.
