All these boys have been with us for close to a year or more and are limited in their riding abilities. For qualified, experienced adopters or adopters who are working with a trainer we are offering these boys for half off the listed adoption fee if adopted and picked up by the end of October. Let’s get them home for the fall trail season!

Well hellllooooooo 😍
This gorgeous girl is ASH WEDNESDAY (too bad it’s not close to Easter). Ash is a 4 yo filly that retired with arthritis in her knees. She had chips removed earlier this year. She will see our vet this afternoon and we will find out which directions she can go in.
She is sensible and extremely kind. Get your apps in. She won’t be here long!

Billy is a tiny little guy with a lot of athletic ability and will make a nice hunter prospect or even trail horse. He is able to do most any discipline. A fun little guy to have in your life. He’s an easy keeper to add to his many other skills! Get him home in time for the fall season!
