Nicki
Trakehner gelding that has had a dressage career
His favorite buddy is Shadow and he loves working in the arena. Nicki has a silly habit of dumping his hay into his water trough, much to the chagrin of those that do his house keeping.

Tiki
12 Year Old Bay Arab Mare
Sweet and petite Tiki thinks she is a pretty little princess and that she should be treated like one. She likes to stand on the door sill in her stall so she can get a better view out her window.

Black Beauty
Welsh Pony
Black Beauty, our Welsh pony, is great for our little riders
that need extra aid when riding. Being shorter helps our volunteers provide that aid with
out having to reach. Like all ponies, Black Beauty complains but she is always good in the classes.

Licorice
Black and white pinto pony standing at 14.2 hands
Licorice is truly what a therapeutic riding
horse should be. She came to us 14 years ago at the age of 6 and fit
right in. Licorice loves the little kids and has even been used for vaulting.
The true beauty of her is that every time you take her out of the stall you have the same
horse. She is the official face of our program.

Max
Max is a palomino Haflinger gelding
He was donated to us by Liz Stubbs, a volunteer
that has been with us for 20 years. Max is very good with our independent
riders, but he is so cheeky that only some of our volunteers want to lead him. His favorite job
is Vaulting and he is super at it.
