About this listen

More than anything else, this is a book about love. In this deeply moving account, you will hear about Rambo, a sheep who informs the staff when another animal is in trouble; and Paulie, a former cockfighting rooster who eats lunch with humans; Dino, an old toothless pony who survived a fire; and many more. Alongside these horses, roosters, pigs, sheep, rabbits, cows, and other animals is a staff of loving humans for whom every animal life, even that of a frog rushed to the vet for emergency surgery, has merit. Reading this book can profoundly - and joyously - change your life.

Editorial reviews

After giving up a successful career as a teacher, Kathy Stevens bought a run-down old farm to create the Catskills Animal Sanctuary, a safe haven for abused and unwanted animals. Amy Rubinate's warm performance creates the perfect complement to Stevens' anecdotes of a guardian sheep, aquaphobic duck, titular blind horse, and many more. It is heartening to hear the tales of such charming animals being saved by someone as caring as Stevens, and Where the Blind Horse Sings is a moving collection of stories that shows the rehabilitative power of love.

Stories illustrating the beauty, humour, intelligence, miracle and wisdom of animals and how they seem to bring out the best and worst in humans.

I especially loved the story of Murphy, the Director of Canine Pursuit and Rambo the Sheep, protector of all, hearding Llamas in unison or Rambo holding vigil with a pig who'd all but given up. No way!

I encourage everyone to listen to this, especially if you have anything to do with animals (which is all of us). You'll learn so much about their inner lives and probably yourself too. Thank you for this audible book.

Fascinating, humourous, compassionate and insightful

What a beautiful story. Heartwarming and at times heart wrenching. Beautiful animals brought back from the brink, to have their trust in humans reinstated and to live out their days in peace. Both humans and animals where so lucky to have found each other. Highly recommended for any animal lover.
