Handibear Hills Horse Sanctuary
Prince Edward Island | Yogi Fell
Beau is a 6 year old Hanoverian gelding. He’s a big boy at 17.2 hands and he follows in Art’s hoofsteps as a lovable overgrown puppy. I first saw him when he was a foal and immediately fell in love with him, partly because he looks very much like the Swedish warmblood I had as …
Hello Yogi and Maxine, A few weeks ago, my daughter Riley and I dropped by your sanctuary on our vacation. I thank you SO much for the conversation, visit, and impromptu pickup truck ride to feed the horses carrots! That experience was definitely one of the highlights of my life. I am working on getting …

I started at Handibear Hills at 4 years old in the Smalls Program. This would have been in 2006. Mostly I rode a small bay pony with the personality the size of a Clydesdale. His name was Breezy. I moved away from PEI a few short years later but I have always cherished and held …

This is Peas in a Pod. She is a 24 year old mare, she has breathing issues, teeth issues and deteriorating ligament issues in her right hind leg. She is not an easy winter keeper. She does much better on grass. She is much loved, Heidi bought her the beautiful fuzzy halter.
Pytor is a full brother to Venka. He is five years old this year. He has some issues with his stifles (the back knee) I am hoping the summer pasture and the hills with lots of selenium will strengthen them. He is one handsome fellow trotting about in the field of snow. He is now …
This is Venka, she was donated to the Sanctuary July 2019 by Jennifer O’Neill. She is 6 years old and has been in training to pull the cart. She has a very poor topline due to starvation before Jenn rescued her and her mother. But with exercise and training the back muscle (longismussi) is getting …
Happy July and summer (I hope) to all of you. The herd is on their summer pasture, such joy for them. It took a long time for the grass to grow to a decent height, to be safe for them. Short grass is not good for horses and ponies. It has been so cold, my …

An opportunity to practice health skills, with Dr. Duckett and Dr. Muirhead, learning pulse, respiration, injection techniques, and deworming. Today was a success story. Folks from both ends of the Island came to the health clinic. Dr. Duckett and Dr. Muirhead speared the education session and the AVC students did a super job of sharing their …
Sweetums is very lame with Laminitus. I was concerned as to the amount of rotation of the coffin bone. Chris. Versteeg DVM of KVC took Xrays on Tuesday and then forwarded them to Ron and Myself. Ron had requested the Xray before he did the trim. This technology is so slick and quick. I get to …
I had accumulated a large herd in the ’80’s and was doing most the trimming myself. My back was not handling it well. I had a couple of Standardbred fellows helping me trim. In those days most the horses came to me with tendon and suspensory evils and I needed a good Heel and not …
Boy am I having a problem focusing this morning. Too excited. Checked on the bridge. it is open to all traffic. The boom ETA is 3 pm and that of course is always subject to bridge and weather. Wendell is coming with the backhoe to do the gravel trench. This man is the most amazing …
