Today we said goodbye to our oldest friend, Pegasus. He went the way every horse should - laying in a field after a long life, peaceful and surrounded by friends. We can’t put into words what this horse meant to Elysian. The program simply would not be what it is today without him. He gave us 23 years of his life, first as a show horse for a fresh new professional rider named Vivianne and eventually became a cornerstone of our program as a lesson horse, giving some people their very first ride on a horse. It’s hard to imagine life without Pegasus as he’s always been there, through all of life’s hardships and celebrations. We take comfort knowing he lived out his final years in the fields of Kentucky, happy and sound until the ripe age of 28. We are so glad we got to see you this summer and were happy to see you hadn’t changed a bit in your old age, still a trouble maker and the head of the herd. We will miss you endlessly Peg❤️
