NEW! Hear the 7/11/2021 Close Up Radio Interview with Angela »
Trigger the Wonder Horse is the true story of a heroic journey taught through the life of a palomino quarter horse.
When Angela Lenhardt gets a call from a friend with news of a horse that is being mistreated and desperately needs a new home, Angela knows she is meant to rescue him. Though just three days earlier she suffered the traumatic loss of her horse, Bailey, and had sworn she would never own another horse so she wouldn’t have to experience that kind of heartbreak again, God clearly has other plans for her.
From the moment Trigger comes into her life, Angela senses he is a special horse. But she has no idea just how extraordinary his story will be or how much he will teach her.
Throughout their time together, Angela and Trigger develop an unbreakable bond of friendship and trust. They share a lot of joy, but there are also times of uncertainty and struggle when they face difficult changes, scary situations, and Trigger’s medical issues that lead to surgeries, painful recoveries, and relapses. At times it seems like all hope is lost. Yet it is in the most trying moments that Angela experiences surprising events that can only be described as miracles.
This book poignantly chronicles Angela and Trigger’s inspirational journey together and the phenomenal occurrences that earned him the nickname “Wonder Horse”—a journey that teaches them that miracles do happen, prayers can be answered, and horses have guardian angels.
