Personality: Laid-back, the wisest of the herd, and never in a hurry. Don is our oldest horse, and his calm demeanor has earned him the nickname ‘Don,’ short for ‘donkey,’ because he reminded us of Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh.
Don is perfect for riders looking for a relaxed, slow-paced trail ride. He takes his time and makes sure everyone feels safe and comfortable.
Personality: Playful, jovial, and always curious. Poke was once a barrel racing horse, but these days he takes it slow. His name came from his slow, relaxed stride—‘slow poke’—which eventually just became Poke. He’s a joy to be around, always looking to have fun.
Personality: Strong-willed and a natural leader, Diamond has a presence that commands respect. She can be testy at times and isn't afraid to show her attitude, but she’s great at what she does. Always ready to work or run, she is as beautiful as she is tough.
Personality: The smallest of the bunch, Pat is docile and caring. She’s got the sweetest demeanor and always finds a way into people’s hearts. Despite her small stature, she’s all about making her rider happy with her gentle nature.
Personality: Ghost is a beautiful rescue horse, white as a ghost, and the newest member of the group. She’s sweet but often finds herself at the bottom of the totem pole since the others pick on her a bit. Poke sometimes acts like her boyfriend, but Diamond keeps her in check. Ghost’s gentle nature makes her a favorite with those who want a calm and kind companion on the trail.
