As you all know, there are a lot of animals all around the world who need help from us in different forms, especially the animals who are mistreated or less likely to be adopted by a family for specific reasons. There is no way out for these amazing creatures, hence a lot of animal lovers and rescuers have stepped in and have made a change in the lives of these animals.
However, there are a lot of people who initially adopted these animals so they could have saved them from their inappropriate living conditions, but a lot of these owners themselves have said that these animals have saved us as well. I remember the rescue pony who saved his owner because it was simply sensing something negative that was about to happen. It was enough to prevent the owner from not taking the next step of doing something terrible. Horses love and accept us unconditionally.
They make us laugh when we are sad, comfort us when we are sick, and offer peace of mind and friendship when life becomes challenging and wearing. Hannah Russell dropped out of college because of severe back pain. But then she met Little Alf, a 7-month-old miniature Shetland pony with dwarfism that no one else wanted. Little Alf is 28 inches high, tiny even for a miniature pony.
Hannah describes him as about the size of a greyhound, only stockier. Hannah says adopting Little Alf gave her life focus and direction. Just a few months later, Little Alf became a sensation, with YouTube videos getting thousands of views and photos getting shared across social media. This dynamic duo now publishes children’s books and Little Alf Magazine. They also have their own equestrian clothing line and Little Alf merchandise.
Their books are really successful because a lot of people have been very interesting in digging more into their story and finding out more about them. Let’s read what Hannah has to say, ‘This year has been so much fun, the book signings, interviews, new magazine launch and book releases and of course most importantly all the fun with Alfie I’ve had this year, from sneaking him into the house and attending book signings with him!’ This is such an amazing duo.
