On Animal Cribs season 2 episode 10 titled Rescue Ranch Remodel, a couple turns to host Antonio Ballatore for help in renovating their horse rescue ranch. The couple runs the ranch and takes in horses that have been rescued from abusive or neglectful situations. However, the ranch's facilities are outdated and no longer suitable for the number of horses they are caring for.
Antonio and his team set to work, first expanding the barn to accommodate more horses. They install new stalls and improve the ventilation to keep the horses comfortable. For the outdoor areas, the team builds new fences and expands the pasture. They also create a new turnout area where the horses can run and exercise.
The team also works on improving the ranch's living quarters. They renovate the couple's house, adding new features like a walk-in closet and a custom-built entertainment center. Antonio also designs a new work area with built-in cabinetry and plenty of desk space for the couple to use while running the ranch.
To make the ranch more eco-friendly, the team installs solar panels on the barn roof. They also create a rainwater harvesting system to provide the horses with fresh, clean water. Antonio and his team also create a garden area where the couple can grow food for the horses using the harvested rainwater.
Throughout the project, Antonio takes special care to ensure that the horses are not disturbed by the construction. He consults with an equine specialist to make sure that the changes to the barn and pasture will be safe and comfortable for the animals.
Finally, the big reveal arrives, and the couple is thrilled with the results of the remodel. They now have a spacious and comfortable home, a functional work area, and a more eco-friendly ranch that can accommodate more horses in need. Antonio and his crew have truly transformed Rescue Ranch, creating a space where both horses and humans can thrive.
