Happy Thanksgiving from the Ologists!

We love a celebration as much as the next person. And this time of year is perfect for reflecting on everything we’re grateful for in our lives. How do we show gratitude for our team, horses, partners, friends, and family? We wanted to throw a Horsie Thanksgiving celebration. Here are our ideas for a fun holiday.

Décor Themes

We love the fall colors and decorations that come with the Thanksgiving season. Even better, these autumn golds, reds, and oranges pair well with the natural colors associated with horses, including the diversity of their coats. Leather is a perfect décor item that will incorporate a horsey theme into your Thanksgiving table.

Recipes for the Humans

Thanksgiving is all about food. And there should be something for everyone at your dinner table. What are perfect human treats for this holiday? Consider adding some of these savory apple dishes to your horsey thanksgiving. Like us, horses also love carrots. So why not add this delicious carrot side to your dinner? Both humans and horses have a sweet tooth, so don’t forget dessert. Apple, pumpkin, pecan, or sweet potato pie all work well on a Thanksgiving table.

Remember: these are people treats. Horses will have their own Thanksgiving table.


Treats for the Horses

So what can you give your horses to show them your gratitude? Our thoroughbreds are all on a healthy diet that helps them stay in tip-top shape, but that doesn’t mean they don’t get the occasional treat. Here are some healthy snacks for horsies.

  • Carrots
  • Peppermint
  • Bananas
  • Pumpkin

Always follow safety guidelines when feeding these delicious treats to your horses.

Showing Gratitude

While food is the centerpiece for Thanksgiving, the sentiment is all about gratitude. We want to show our appreciation to our friends and family, partners, investors, horses, and the entire equine community. horseOlogy is grateful to be a part of an incredible industry that is growing and changing in ways we don’t even know yet.

Our Vision
“To transition and care for retiring thoroughbreds or other equine and prepare for their next careers whether it be companion, riding or therapeutic service and offer an educational opportunity to the community.”

Available for Rehoming

The vast majority of rehoming opportunities come from off the track thoroughbreds (OTTB’s) and we take it upon ourselves to make sure that there are open doors and soft landings for each and every one of them that come to us at the end of their racing career.

What does a second career mean for our equine friends? Whether it is a thoroughbred that’s done with its race career, a show horse that needs an easier job, or a broodmare that gets to retire from her kiddos, we like to think there is a second career for most and aim to create a soft landing for others.

Our Resident Oldies

Not all horses are suited for a second career, and it is most important to understand the difference. You will notice many farms throughout Lexington and Ocala have a field they deem “the retired field” and these typically home retired broodmares, track ponies and others that may have been retired and not able to be rehomed due to injury or temperament.
