Our Horses

Jay is one of the favorites among the advanced beginner and intermediate riders. He is small but mighty! He is a great horse for jumping and for ring work. Some of the riders call him "Jay Pony".

Patriot was born on Memorial Day which is how she earned her name. Patty is a paint horse and has unique coloration. Native Americans called her coloring a "Medicine Hat" because of the dark 'cap' appearance. Check out more information about Medicine Hats here. Patty is completely weaned and is kept in a stall down the aisle from her mom, Vixen. She is completely ground broke, and is working on being saddle broke as well.

Here is our pony, Hercules. Some say he's the very best school horse we have. We love him! Hercules is always hungry, as you can see in the picture to the left!

Reno was a great horse for us to acquire from a barn in the Berkshires. From day one he has been a dependable and loved school horse. He is a bigger horse so can accommodate some of our taller riders but is also very responsive. He can jump and do just about any type of lesson.

Vixen's registered name (she is a registered paint with the American Paint Horse Association) is "Sho'nuff Fancy Lady". Can you guess why we call her Vixen? Here is a hint: if you look at her markings, what do you see? Vixen is a great mare who needs a more advanced rider, but loves going out on the trails and is always willing to please.

Here's Dixie, a black and white Paint Mare. Many love to ride this older girl who is very trustworthy and easy-going.

Zeus is Lizzy's horse but is being used in some beginner lessons and will eventually be a big part of our school riding program. A young (5 years old) half paint, half quarter horse he has an amazingly calm and unflappable temperament. Riders have already taken him on trail rides and nothing phases him. Zeus is already a great beginner and intermediate horse just like his buddy Jay. We bought him from a farm in Middlebury, VT and we are really happy to have him on our farm.

Although Nelly is a big girl, she is a fantastic ride and is very loveable. She is always willing to please and works very hard to do exactly what her rider wants her to do. Although still learning her ring manners, she tries hard and makes a fantastic beginner, intermediate, or advanced ride. She also loves trail riding!

Bam is a fantastic little Morgan gelding who loves to be ridden! Whether out on the trails or in the ring, Bam tries hard to please his rider. He loves to jump, and is always up for a quick cuddle in his stall.

Bradley is a Thoroughbred gelding and is one of our intermediate horses. He is a larger horse, so is able to accommodate some of our taller riders. Bradley loves to jump, and is also working on his trail riding manners so that he can go out with more people!

Logan is a great horse who is always one to go for the gold. He loves jumping, and always tries his hardest. Logan is one of our more intermediate or advanced horses. He is also great out on the trails, especially for only being six years old!
