OUR HORSES

Trixie

SAM

Sam is a 16-year-old Halflinger weighing in at nearly 1500 lbs. His calm demeanor and strong gaits make him well-suited for therapeutic riders and beginners through advanced riders. He’s often referred to as a Gentle Giant or the Golden Retriever of the barn.

TRIXIE

Trixie is a 14-year-old Quarter Horse mare. Trixie’s Sire and Grandsire are both in AQHA’s Western Pleasure Hall of Fame, so Trixie was bred to have slow, smooth gaits. She is a favorite for kids learning to trot and lope, as well as an instructor favorite for balance-impaired riders.

PEARL

Pearl is a 10-year-old, 13.2 hand Cremello Pony. Her breed is half Welsh Cob and half Paint. She’s very expressive, loves to be scratched on the neck and withers and often moonlights as a unicorn.

JESSIE

Jesse is a 20-year-old Morgan gelding. He is a former National and World Champion Reining horse now owned by Junior Instructor, Isabell Fleming.

MATTIE ROSE

Mattie is a 10-year-old, Red Roan Quarter Horse mare. She was recently retired from showing due to a lameness issue, but needs the light exercise and love enjoyed by our school horses! During her show career, Mattie won numerous national-level accolades in Reining on the NRHA reining circuit. She was donated to our program by Christina and Mark Parsons.

TRIXIE

ZENZIE

Zenzie is a 10-year-old appendix Quarter Horse (half Thoroughbred, half Quarter Horse, registered as an Appendix Quarter Horse). She is the tallest horse in the barn at 16.1 hands. Zenzie is a favorite among intermediate and experienced riders as she is the most responsive of all the lesson horses and has an impressive range of stride.

JESSIE

Jesse is a 20-year-old Morgan gelding. He is a former National and World Champion Reining horse now owned by Junior Instructor, Isabell Fleming.
