Joey

How a Blind Rescue Horse Helped Others Learn to See

De: Jennifer Marshall Bleakley

Narrado por: Emily Durante

The heartwarming true story of a blind horse named Joey

At the height of his show career, this beautiful Appaloosa's majestic stature, strength, and willingness to work made him the perfect partner. But when an injury cost Joey his show career, he moved from one owner to the next, ultimately experiencing severe abuse and neglect. A rescue group found Joey nearly dead from starvation - and blind.

Then he came to Hope Reins - a ranch dedicated to helping hurting kids who had been abused, emotionally wounded, or unwanted. By teaching these children to care for rescued animals, the Hope Reins staff were convinced they could reach kids with love and hope and show them that we are never forgotten by God.

But could the financially struggling ranch afford to take care of a blind horse that no one else wanted? Could Joey somehow learn to trust people even though the world had hurt him so badly? And what would happen - to Joey, the kids, and Hope Reins - if they failed?

A true story of friendship destined to become a classic, Joey will touch your heart and reveal the power of finding light in the darkness.

I cried so many times❤️❤️

I absolutely love this because it reminds me of my horses especially speckle, and Joey their relationship really reminded me of my horses such a sweet story

Touching book

Such an emotional book that brought understanding and reflection on my own life. Living only 40 min from the ranch I hate I was never able to meet the amazing horse who touched so many lives.

Heart warming

loved it, great read for anyone especially horse lovers, good to see hurt horses helping hurt people

A real horse love story

This book touched my heart in so many ways. It does have more religious connotations but they don't take away from the true story of a horse who touched everyone's heart even now as he is in Horsey Heaven. I highly recommend!

Deeply touching story

This is a deeply touching story about the healing bond forged between broken humans and damaged horses. Powerful!!

Beautiful!

I have no words to adequately describe how this book touched my heart. it's written in such way that you feel like you've gotten to know each individual, personally. I shared their joys, triumphs, and sorrows with them and I loved being drawn into the heart of God through their stories.

Great Novel

it is a great story about the lives of horses and one woman's dream of owning a ranch for rescued animals. Through faith and prayer she is blessed with more than she imagined.
