Mira grooming one horse and the other—aka Mr. Look-At-Me—practically throws himself into her arms because clearly, she must be ignoring him. Ever try brushing while fending off a jealous 1,200 lb toddler? It’s a skill 🤣#AttentionSeekerExtraordinaire

Dear Fox Island Equestrian Friends, It’s with a very heavy heart, that I must share some sad news! This Friday we plan to say goodbye to a cherished member of our herd. Our beloved Maxi will cross the rainbow bridge after a long and fulfilling life.
For years, Maxi was more than just a horse. She was a patient teacher, a gentle soul, and a trusted friend to so many. She guided countless students through their first rides, instilling confidence and joy in every lesson. Her kind eyes and steady presence were a source of comfort to everyone who had the pleasure of knowing her.
As the years passed, we watched as she continued to give her all, even as her body grew tired. It became clear that the time has come to give her the peace she deserves. On Friday, we will make the incredibly difficult decision to let her go, knowing that it was the kindest thing we could do for her.
Maxi will always hold a special place in our hearts. Her legacy will live on in the countless riders she helped shape, and in the love and memories we’ll carry with us.
Thank you to everyone who has loved and cared for Maxi over the years. Your kindness made her life richer, and we are forever grateful. My sweet girl, I will miss you so much! ❤️#love #heart #peace #loyalty #friendship #companion #hearthorse

Last week of Summer Horse Camp 2024
One of the things we work on at camp is how to halter a horse/pony. #learning #confidence #loyalty #trust #relationship #horsecamp
New week of camp! The day started with rain but it didn’t get in our way! We made the best of it and I think the hobbyhorse craft in the prior reel was the best part🐴 #horseriding #kidscamp #outdoor #rain #friendship #leadership #creativity #art

Maxi 🩷 melts my heart when I see her gentle soul interact with children! I know she misses teaching the kids to ride, but I know she still makes an impact on each student who visits our barn!!! Love you forever Maxi! #love #hearthorse #forever #liveinthemoment #32years #mare #seniorhorse #retired #schoolmaster
