Peaches, born in 2002, will fool anyone into thinking she’s a decade younger!

She has been in our program for 10 years and is still going strong (she is a Fjord after all). Some of her nicknames are Peachy, Princess Peach, Peach Pit, Peach Pie, Peach Fuzz, and The Best Pony In The World.

She has PPID (a hormone disorder) and is on daily medication. One of the symptoms of PPID is difficulty with temperature regulation and thick, greasy coats, so she has several clips throughout the year to keep her skin healthier and body more comfortable. Sometimes you might find her with a heart or a peach on her back end.

She is a solid rock star in classes – her friendly, outgoing and brave personality helps to bring riders out of their shell, building their confidence and ability to make new connections.

Outside of classes she enjoys working in the arena, trotting through the trails, and has participated in a few Working Equitation events.

In her latest interview Peaches shared she has no plans of retiring any time soon, she still has a lot of trotting and cantering left to do. Trot on, Peaches!
