Bobbi is a 15 year old Appaloosa cross mare that is very pleasant and a
doll to ride. She is easy going but still full spunk. She
has good manners and enjoys attention.
Bobbi prefers to ride Western - she does neck rein - but she will ride
English as well.
We'd love to find Bobbi a home along with Pongo, a 20 yr young Appaloosa
that came in with her. They would make a great parent/child riding
team. For information on Pongo, just scroll down.

Bud is a gentle 6 yr old QH gelding that is a very pleasant horse.
He keeps us amused with his antics. He loves playing with the
water hose and getting everyone else wet.
He is so inquisitive and keeps us
laughing. He and Beauty are best friends.
Bud has been started under saddle and is doing really well. He
just needs some miles put on him and he will make a nice trail horse.
He is ready for a forever home.

Buttercup, a TB filly, arrived on May 7th, 2008 when she was about 3 weeks old.
She is what is known as a nurse mare foal. Click on her picture
for more information.
Buttercup made friends right away with a colt her age that was also an orphan foal
- Golden Boy, aka Sand Storm, but he found a great home.
Buttercup is like a sister to Aaleyah Belle, another foal here that is
about her age that was going to be shot right after birth.
Aaleyah's mom, Momma Sue, has accepted
Buttercup and treats her as her own. This is very good because we
believe all babies need a mom to teach them how to be a horse.
Buttercup is very people friendly and loves attention. She is a
very nice mover and her conformation is awesome - her disposition is
wonderful. She will make someone a very nice horse - she will
offer lots of abilities. She is available only to a home that uses
natural horsemanship training methods. |

Cash is a 16 year old quarter horse
mare that has the nicest disposition and wants to please. She is experienced in Western Pleasure, Dressage, English and has even
participated in parades. She is looking for someone that will be
her best friend and spoil her rotten.
She is good with other horses, has good manners, likes people, is good
with the vet and farrier, and will greet you at the gate. She does
know some voice commands.
If you are looking for a very safe horse to walk trails or around the
neighborhood on - Cash would be perfect. She has an old injury and
is off some at the trot. She'll trot if you ask her to but we
don't ask anything of our horses that makes them uncomfortable.
She'll do just about anything you ask of her. She is just a sweet,
sweet mare.

Classy is a very sweet 14 hh pony
mare. She came to us in March 2007 with a medical condition known
as roaring. Flaps in her airway that allowed air to flow into her
lungs were
not working. She underwent a very successful surgery at UF - a
total trachestomy.
Classy was adopted out in the Spring of 2008. Her
new human was a very happy 3 yr old. Sadly, due to a change in
life
circumstances, Classy is back at the rescue.
Classy would make a very nice pony for any child. She has a lot of
patience and loves kids. She's also a very pretty mover!
Classy's trach prevents her from going swimming but that is really her
only limitation. Her trach area needs to be wiped clean daily.
If any dirt of flies get in it she blows them out.
Vonda Sines has published an article about Classy on Associated Content.

Molly is an Appaloosa/Morgan cross mare that is 21 years young.
She is smart, confident, and has good manners. She is quiet in her
stall and easy to catch in an open field.
Molly is good with the farrier and vet. She ties, bathes, clips,
cross ties, and leads quietly.
Molly is high in the pecking order. She can be ridden English or
Western.
Molly is looking for a home where she can do trail riding or English
Pleasure. She goes through water and enjoys a change of scenery.
She doesn't really care for young children.
Molly is a beautiful mare and is currently being fostered by humans that
have owned her for many years. Please contact us if you would like
more information on Molly.

Nash is a 17 year old QH that is retired from barrel racing. His
grand daddy is Dash for Cash. Nash is very sweet and kind.
We believe he had a very bad experience with
someone twitching his ears. He doesn't like them to be touched.
We just work around it and it's not a problem.
Nash is in great health and is available for adoption as a trail or
pleasure horse only - no barrel or other racing. He's a very easy keeper and wants his own human.

Peaches is a 9 yr old Welsh/Cob pony.
She is an awesome pony that used to compete in games - she knew what to do
and when to do it!
Peaches is the clown of the farm. She is a master at opening
gates, picking up things and tossing them, and doing just about anything
for attention or a treat. She's very much a thinker and is a very
sweet mare.
Peaches started tripping a couple of years ago for not apparent reason. We had
extensive tests run on her at UF and at Peterson and Smith which
disclosed no issues. We gave her several months off and kept close
watch of her. Recently, we started to work her again and she is
doing awesome!
We think she needs and wants her own human that will dote on her - she will bring home ribbons
and make her human proud. |

Princess is a 20 year old Arabian mare that is just beautiful and kind.
She has been ridden hunter and lower level dressage in her
younger years.
Princess was a pasture pal for a couple of years before
coming to the rescue. She came
from a happy home where she was loved and cared for but her human had to
go off to school. The first
time we saddled her she seemed happy to be back at work.
We've ridden her some and she would make a very nice trail or English
Pleasure horse.
She has no vices and gets along with everyone. She seems happier
riding English rather than Western but will go either way. |

Pongo is a 20 year young spotted Appaloosa gelding that is as nice as they come.
He's very laid back but still has pep and will do what is asked of him.
He has good manners and loves people.
Pongo and Bobbi are best friends and it would be awesome if they could
find a home together. They'd make a perfect parent/child pair of
riding horses.

Robbi is a 7 year old Arabian pony
that loves to be loved and really wants his own human. We do not

Silver Belle is a TB filly that came to us with injuries to her chest
and left knee. She has fully recovered and is ready for her own
human family. She will be a year old in May 2009.
She has a very nice disposition and will make someone a very nice horse.
She is willing to try what is asked of her. She's a very vocal
girl - she loves human attention and will hold a conversation with you
all day long if you have the time!
She learns fast and has never kicked or bucked at a human or done
anything mean. She is the easiest going filly we've ever met!
Silver Belle will bond easily with her human - she's at the right age
for a human family of her own.
What's better then finding Silver Belle a wonderful home? Finding
Silver Belle and Buttercup a home together! They have been raised
as "sisters" and we'd love to keep them together. |
