We are over the moon every time we get a letter like this…it fuels us, feeds us, and validates every sleepless moment and every tear shed. Austin was adopted nearly 4 years ago, and his mom is still in love, and even more committed to his happiness and life. (We love you too, Dena and Austin!)

Dear Susan and Red Bucket Team,

Just a quick note to let you know how very thankful I am to you and the Red Bucket Team for allowing me to adopt Austin. He is such a wonderful horse that is loved by all who meet him. From jumping to cruising the trails to giving pony rides to 9-year-olds (yes, he did that yesterday!) – he is truly a terrific soul who is very loved! His trainer (a seasoned, well-respected rider and USEF judge) said to me yesterday that she feels extremely lucky to be able to ride him – aww!

Lots of love,

Dena & Austin
