PHOEBE
Swoon Song Two
1999
APHA
PtHA
Phoebe is Libby's personal horse and also a member of our therapy team. She is often the horse of choice for riders when they first begin to ride independently.
LYLE
Lyle is a Hafflinger cross pony and quite the friendly little boy! He gets along great with his pasture mates and is full of energy. He and Willy are great friends.
JANIS JOPLIN
Janis is a true dwarf mini horse. Janis is a sweetie and apparently doesn't realize her size. She had also worked with children with disabilites before joining our program.
ADDY
Admiral Jess
AQHA 1989
Addy has been with us since the winter of 2008-09, when he retired from his show career. He is a welcome addition to our horse staff. Addy is a handsome boy and has a sweet disposition.
HERSHEY
Hershey is a tiny little guy but makes up for it in energy. He is quite the sweet older gentleman, somewhere in his late twenties, but you'd never know it by his energy level. Our smallest riders really enjoy working with him since he is "just their size".
WILLY
Windmill Junction Boxcar Willy
AMHR 2004
Willy is a registered minature horse and looks like a mini Lyle. He is fun to work with and our kids use him for ground work. Willy loves attention and came to us because he is too easy of a keeper for his own good!
We are currently looking for a small draft or draft cross who is well broke to saddle, between 5 and 15 years old, and in good health. Breed, color, and conformation are unimportant. Please click here to obtain information on how to donate a horse to our program.
