OUR INHABITANTS

Ajax (The Grey)

22 Years Old | Flea bitten Grey – Quarter Horse

Ajax, also known as “The Grey”, is an intermediate level riding horse. He was previously used as a pick up horse for rodeos in Colorado, and is now learning to slow down his pace for our easygoing trail rides. He loves his friends and is rarely seen far from them.

Choco

24 Years Old | Liver Bay – Quarter Horse

Choco is an intermediate level horse. He is a little paranoid of anything new and tends to think that everything is out to get him. Yet, once he understands what is expected of him and that there is no danger involved, he is quick to please his rider and do what is asked of him.

Mufasa

25 Years Old | Chestnut – Halflinger Pony

Mufasa is a beginner level horse. He is sometimes affectionately called, “Fatso” by the kids who come to the farm because he is always eating and is very reluctant to exercise. Yet, once he does pick up his pace, he has one of the smoothest cantors of all the horses on our farm.

Rosy

20 Years Old | Chestnut – Quarter Horse

Rosy is a favorite for beginner and intermediate riding lessons. She is an great jumper and excels in many horse games. She can be affectionate as long as she knows you, and she respects people who tell her firmly what they want from her.

Belle

18 Years Old | Dappled Grey – Arabian Appaloosa

Belle is an intermediate level horse. Yet, many of our more advanced riders favor her because of her speed and agility.

Cutter

29 Years Old | Bay – Quarter Horse

Cutter is a favorite on the farm because of his ability to adapt to his rider’s experience level. With beginners he is slow and gentle, with intermediate riders he easier picks up the speed without too much encouragement, and for our advanced riders he knows some dressage moves.

Russo (Kuro Kishi)

13 Years Old | Black – Gypsy Vanner

Russo is the youngest horse on our farm. His nickname is “Kuro Kishi” which means “Black Knight” in Japanese. We have only been riding him for a few months, and he has become quite responsive to our commands. He is now considered an intermediate horse, but he has to get more used to everything before we let customers regularly ride him. He loves attention from people and will follow whomever comes to visit him all over his pasture. If you walk, he will follow you at a walk, and if you run he will also pick up his pace to match yours!

Sugar

23 Years Old | Chocolate Palomino – Shetland Pony

Sugar is a favorite with kids who come to the farm for pony rides because of his size and gentle mannerisms. We also have some young students who have taken lessons with him. We don’t usually let him go on our trail rides though because he can be stubborn and loves rolling in water.

Lando

21 Years Old | Bay – Quarter Horse

Lando is the newest addition of our horses to the farm. He was purchased on May 7th, 2017. He was a running champion for rodeo team roping in Colorado four times.

Reubik

21 years old

Tucker

24 Years Old | Bay – Polish Arabian

Tucker is a beginner level horse for trail rides, but at an intermediate level horse for lessons. He likes a loose reign. If you are gentle with him, he will be gentle and docile towards you. If you pull on him a lot, he will pull back. He seems to think of it like a game of “Tug O War”! Since he does this, some people say that his name should be “tugger” instead of Tucker.

Toby

30 Years Old | Flea bitten Gray – Appendix

Toby is an intermediate level horse, who is known for turning his head to give hugs to people whom he likes. He has super floppy ears and gets a long with almost everyone. His pace is usually very smooth and slow, but he also can pick up the speed if someone asks him to!
