Flurry's Hope
The mission of Flurry’s Hope is
to increase public awareness of the treasure in blind horses and
their potential for riding. We offer help to others in learning how
to care for and train their blind horses. Blind horses are worth
saving! At Flurry's Hope, we have experienced the joy of riding,
training, and playing with these precious animals. They are not
helpless - they are a blessing. Please visit our website (www.flurryshope.com)
for tips on training blind horses, ways that you can help rescue
blind horses, and more information.
Who
is Flurry?
In February of 2007, Dr. Emilie Storch was given a
blind horse known as Freckles. This blind leopard appaloosa arrived
muddy, meek and depressed. As she healed, her strong and confident
personality emerged with her strong and beautiful body. Freckles’
name was changed to Flurry, to reflect that inner and outer beauty.
Flurry loved to ride on trails and through pastures. She responded
easily to both voice and leg commands and was a quick student.
Sadly, Flurry died suddenly on Memorial Day of 2007.
Flurry’s Hope
was developed to help other blind horses achieve
their full potential, just as Flurry did...
We have produced our first
children's book about blind horses:
Horses who see with their Hearts.
