Willow
Our herd boss. Even with her small stature, she is the lead mare, taking new horses that join us under her hoof and showing them the ropes. Willow came to us from Touchstone Farms. We had gone to visit Gillian and her herd and it was love at first sight for Willow. She chose Lindsey as her new person and the rest is history.
Her story before Touchstone was pretty sad. She was terrified of men and buckets, and we were told that she was found in a very dirty stall with her foal who had passed away a few days prior to being found. Willow has been with us since 2019.
Perry
Joining us in spring of 2023, this lovely dude came to us almost 900lbs underweight with a busted up knee and missing the majority of his front teeth. He is the true definition of forgiveness as he is the sweetest soul, even after humans failed him once.
He is fantastic at teaching people how to be in the moment and leave their perfectionism at the gate, and LOVES to be fussed over, and is definitely a farm favorite. Mr Perry will spend the rest of his days comfortably eating hay with his buddies at Transitions.
Elliott Moose
Ahhhh yes, Mr Moose, the troublemaker extraordinaire. If you don’t see him sneaking through fences and trying to break into the barn, you will catch him lovingly pestering one of his herd mates or stealing the hats, tools, and wheelbarrows from his humans. Moose joined us in 2019 from Stoneridge Stables, where he was born after his mother was rescued from OLEX. He has been an amazing addition to our program, taking his job seriously and making sure you’re ready to lead and laugh. For such a small dude, he has BIG personality
Thunder
Meet the face behind our logo. With big personality and puppy dog tendancies, it’s not hard to see why he’s the perfect brand ambassador. Thunder is an amazing teacher, arriving here and jumping right into the program like he’s been doing it his whole life.
While Thunder is one of the lucky souls who has not had hardships at the hands of humans, he does have a special story. A little while before I had recevied the call asking if we’d be interested in another horse, I had stated, out loud, that I would love to get a horse just like my grandfather’s old Cheyenne with bonus points if the bloodlines branched back to some of my grandfather’s… Well folks, here he is. A prime example of ask and you shall receive.
Veronica
Our oldest resident, Ronnie, is the kindest, yet can be the most stubborn, of the entire herd.
She was rescued from a life as a brood mare where we expect that she carried almost as many babies as she is old. She truly enjoys her frequent spa days, and is an amazing teacher of please ask and don’t tell. A true team player, she has been a fantastic part of our program and loves working with people on their journeys to self awareness.
Tulsa
The baby of the herd, Tulsa is not yet in our program. She is showing incredible potential to be one of the star teachers, as her calm and level headed personality is one of her finest qualities.
We often find Tulsa and Lindsey laying together in the paddock when they’re not playing.
While Tulsa is still in training and evaluation, you can still meet her when you come to visit the farm.
Hot Rod
“Bandido’s Devil Drives a Hotrod” is a funny and spunky little guy. At five years old, his sensitive yet loving nature makes him an excellent addition to our program. His curiosity and willingness to teach has made him a fast farm favorite.
His previous owners taught him how to give kisses, and his favorite visitors are our LTC residents.
You will often see him and Moose wrestling in the field or playing a game of keep away.
Envy
“Bandido’s Envy” is a beautiful, fancy moving little pony who is trained to drive. She’s very lovable. She loves attention and kisses, and is loved by all who meet her.
Her gentle and patient nature coupled with her smaller stature, make her a perfect partner for first time horse participants who may be a little nervous at first.
She and Willow have become best friends in the field and she’s also helping Willow to be a little more interactive with people on her own accord.
Stanley
Stan the Man. He is by far, our smallest herd member with the biggest heart. He happily offers up his hooves for impressions in pottery for our Signature, Ponies and Pottery events, and loves to check out what’s happening in the arena. His hair do is always ON POINT!
His Tiny stature and big personality make him an excellent partner for people in our program wishing to experience a little more of a challenge.
You will find Stan partaking in shenanigans in the field with Moose, HotRod , and Willow on a very regular basis.
