​'Glory' ❤️❤️❤️
 
Rest in peace, my beautiful red dragon
November 2003- May 2025

Freeze brand: #****2573
Born in holding: Teterville West, Granola Prep Facility, Kansas, HMA unknown

Glory was a rescue, taken in by Pasture Pals ER in 2012. She was roughly 750 pounds when Alex and her team seized her. She was extremely beaten up and had many battle scars to date. She was burnt with cigarettes and beaten with a chain, and tied to a tree like a dog. A halter had grown into her face. She had overgrown hooves, lacked all basic care, food, water, and was so emaciated the mare's pregnancy was a surprise the following spring. Fast forward several years, an opportunity to adopt this mare was presented to Trail of Faith Farms. We of course jumped all in to see if she was a good fit for our program.  
 Glory was perfect! So we signed the papers bringing her to here new home at TOFF.
Glory was then retrained and integrated into our veteran program, 'Operation No Longer a Number.' Glory was a vital asset in healing many veterans and their family members. Her testimony spoke volumes as many could relate to her past. She broke down walls in therapeutic sessions with just a flick of an ear and a sash of her tail.
Glory was once disregarded, thrown away like trash, and left tethered to a tree in the wilderness. But God! He provided the right people to rehab her and give her purpose. She beat all odds and I'm blessed to have been a part of her journey. Glory taught many people, to include my husband and myself, to love big, be soft in correction, be assertive with kindness, let HIS light shine before men, and stay humble while maintaining a student frame of mind. I will be forever grateful for the privilege and honor to have steward this fiery, sassy mare until her final breath.

16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
Matthew 5:16
