Cindy Gilbert was not looking for a horse when Beyond the Budget came into her life. A year earlier, she had lost Delight, her heart horse. The grief of that loss was still present when Beverly Strauss from MidAtlantic Horse Rescue reached out with a message: she had a horse who reminded her of Delight.
Gilbert was not planning to adopt, but the note was enough to make her go visit.
“While I wasn’t looking for a horse, I felt I should at least go meet him,” Gilbert said.
