Budd returns to his roots and to safe pasture at Cherry Hill, fundraiser August 11 https://www.thebatavian.com/jfbeck99272012/budd-returns-to-his-roots-and-to-safe-pasture-at-cherry-hill-fundraiser-august-11
Budd at Cherry Hill
Budd, who put on more than 100,000 miles as a driver for his family, is now grazing happily at Cherry Hill Farm Sanctuary. 
Submitted Photo

Budd was a standardbred whose original destiny was to become a racehorse. At two years old, he didn’t make the required time and instead became a working horse. He ended up as a driver for an Amish family for the next 18 years.

He click-clacked his way for more than 100,000 miles over those years, and when it became evident that Budd could no longer perform his daily tasks due to old age, his family didn’t really want to send him to auction. Lucky for Budd, his family came across the Cherry Hill Farm Sanctuary business cards that President Pamela Harmon had scattered throughout nearby harness shops and community centers.
