So happy they’re now in a forever home now

We’ve seen our share of unlikely friendships, but a goose and a miniature horse who are best friends?
That’s a new one!
Thank you for keeping them together and saving them and giving them a loving home , Kindness Matters!

Last summer the Bucks County SPCA in Pennsylvania responded to a [re.po.rt] of animal [cr.ue.lty] and made a [sad] discovery. The run-down barn contained almost a dozen ducks, two peacocks, a goose, and a miniature horse, all living in [sq.ualid] conditions. The rescued animals were taken to a barn in Quakertown to begin their recovery.

Almost instantly staff members noticed that Waffles the miniature horse and Hemingway the goose had formed a tight bond during their days in the [sq.ualid] barn where they’d lived. In fact, it soon became clear that the pair were best friends.

We have them in the barn together and one of the staff observed one day that Hemingway was leaning his head in and kind of had his neck wrapped over Waffle’s shoulder, It was very sweet.

The SPCA shared the story of their friendship on their social media pages, and soon local “TV station WFMZ” covered the story; As soon as people heard of their unlikely friendship they went viral, and before long the adoption applications flooded the rescue’s offices.

Maddie and Nick, a couple with a small hobby farm in southeastern Pennsylvania. Maddie already has a horse named Peabody who was looking for a friend, along with several goats and other furry friends.

On the day of their adoption, Maddie and Nick showed up with a horse trailer and prepared for a struggle getting the mini horse loaded on board. It turns out they didn’t need to worry though — once Waffles saw his friend Hemingway was already on board, he jumped right into the trailer!

Cindy said: Their new home includes the company of other horses, goats and other farm animals. It’s a perfect case scenario for the animals.
The moment the pair got off the trailer at Good Enough Farmette the best buddies started making themselves at home.

Cindy share: Hemingway immediately went for a dip in his new and bigger pool and Waffles seemed very happy to roll in the grass. Waffles immediately befriended Peabody the horse, and Hemingway began protecting his new herd with gusto.

Waffles is currently in training to become a therapy horse. He loves greeting school children who come to see him, especially because of all the brushing and grooming that goes on when the kids arrive.

Thank you for your love and compassion and kindness and help for these beautiful creatures.
So glad that they have a forever home  Amen 

Such an uplifting story… So pleased they both have a happy ending
