His Honor shines

R&R New Options Equine has gained a lot of respect over the years for the work we do giving help to horses in need. I truly believe that these wonderful animals do more for us than we will ever be able to repay. It is with a heavy heart that I share with you a little bit about one of the best, Ghosts Skippen Pizazz.
When Zazz first came into our care he was a timid foal, just a few weeks old (we rescued him along with his mother, a Red Roan Appy and his father a Paint Breeding Stock Stud). I have never seen a horse with so much or so many colors!
Zazzes coat brought to mind the flashy fireworks you see on the Fourth of July, yet He wanted nothing more than to please everyone. Zazz excelled not only as a student but also as a teacher, teaching trust and understanding to the newly rescued horses. He also taught patience and forgiveness to all the people around him.

Three weeks ago Zazz got his left hind leg caught in a nylon cord that was put up. The injury was severe, cutting all of the tendons and exposing a large piece of his bone. Pizazz faced his painful injury with dignity and trust. He stood quietly on his three working legs while the vet worked on him. He allowed us to hold up the bad leg and get him into the barn. Despite all of the antibiotics, and dailly care, his wound became steadily worse.

When it came time to leave his pain and struggle behind, our sweet Zazzer went without fear to join God's Heavenly Herd.

Zazz brought to us so much joy and love in his six short years, he will never be forgotten and he will be forever missed!
