Exclusively Equine Gifts & Decor is proud to support the LongRun Thoroughbred Adoption Society. My professional career as a Registered Veterinary Technician has always been heavily focused on the health & welfare of horses in general. The Thoroughbred has a special place in my heart due to my work as a Technician for over 26 years at Woodbine Racetrack working with leading veterinary practices ensuring the best possible care for these tremendous athletes.
The LongRun Society is a “winner” all around due to their continuous efforts in finding new homes and careers for our beloved retired Thoroughbreds. Some retirees enjoy a simple life of leisure in a new home with loads of attention, others find a second career retrained in Dressage, Jumping, Cross Country, Western Disciplines or simply as a happy hacker. No matter what, adoption candidates are heavily screened to ensure proper care is provided for these respected Thoroughbreds with LongRun communication maintained for continuous updates, that are shared in quarterly newsletters.
LongRun relies heavily on donations to their Society to help support the expense of caring for these horses while in their adoption program. Each year fund raising events take place that engage the public to have fun, celebrating these Thoroughbreds with great opportunities to “giveback” to these athletes in memorable ways. This year LongRun is hosting their Gala Event, “Prancing with the Stars” on September 25th, 2015 at Woodbine Racetrack in their track side tent. A wonderful opportunity to engage in such a worthy cause and meet renowned individuals in the industry!

Exclusively,
Catherine & Sir Blitz our 17 year-old retiree.
