We are so excited to announce that Trigger has found his forever home! Mr. F has always wanted a palomino and this year his wife gave him the perfect Christmas gift. Trigger will be trail riding around their farm and giving riding lessons to grandkids and hanging with a donkey and a horse friend. The absolute perfect life for him.

We hope Trigger brings you many years of joy and lots of pony snuggles!

Montevallo is a 2021 Bernardini gelding who is RRP eligible. He is adoptable through

Monty has been so much fun to have in the barn. He is willing to learn and wants to find all the right answers. He is working through some typical racehorse stiffness undersaddle but he’s putting in the effort. He has a beautiful big strided canter and a snappy trot. He was retired from racing in July with a slab fracture to his knee but it has been fully rehabbed and he is ready to progress with training. He has a kind puppy dog personality. He will be so much fun to bring along!

Will Virginia Dare (Ginny) is a 2020 Get Stormy filly that is available for adoption through
Ginny IS RRP eligible! She is such a sweet girl and is trying so hard to learn the ropes of being an OTTB. She is settling in nicely and is pleasant to work with. She is still working on figuring out the difference between a relaxed canter and a stiff gallop but she’s trying to put in the effort and work through. She will make someone a wonderful RRP project or don’t go the RRP route and she’ll make a great sport horse or partner in any discipline.

Alright friends help me find Trigger a good home! Trigger belongs to some family friends who love him dearly but their kids have grown up and moved on to other interests so he’s not getting as much attention anymore. They want to find him a home who will love him like they do but also be able to give him a job.

Positives: Trigger excels on the trails. He is brave and willing to plod down the trail all day. He has the smoothest lope. He is kind natured and stands politely for grooming and farrier work. Loads into a trailer like a total champ. The prettiest coloring 🤩

Full disclosure on the Negatives: Trigger has a history of mild laminitic flairs. He is also most likely metabolic and will need to be started on medication to manage his condition. A dry lot or muzzle is necessary. We will get him tested soon to be sure but he has all the typical indications of a metabolic horse.

He is currently barefoot but he is about as flat soled as it gets and will be more comfortable plodding across rocky terrain with shoes or boots on.

Trigger will be at our Christmas open house tomorrow. Come by and see him!

Little Knuckles has been putting in good effort lately. He’s starting to show us his goofy personality through his thoughtful interactions. This 2 yr old has been wearing a blanket and saddle and has handled it all with ease. He had his first full trim a couple weeks ago and he stood bravely and quietly. Some of his favorite things include: soft treats, his adoptive “mama” Caviar, boy games with Fuego, scratches behind his ear. It is so fun to watch these emaciated and terrified feral horses turn into healthy and happy domesticated partners.

Knuckles will be available for adoption from Kentucky Humane Society Equine CARE when he has a bit more knowledge under his belt.

In case you’re wondering who actually runs the farm- it’s Billy Bob. Billy Bob makes us aware when we’re late for dinner, tells the feral brats to shape up, tells the young colts who is boss, somehow asserts himself over recently gelded teenagers. But yet somehow he still manages to have the kindest and gentlest heart with people from all kinds of backgrounds and experiences. He’s truly one of a kind and the absolute KING of this farm 👑

So proud of and Fuego! They completed their first CT together with a 🥉 place finish. Ella has now seen the firey Fuego side and will be more prepared next time to harness his wild side. They excelled in the jumper ring!

Caviar improved in dressage but her Jockey failed to know the pattern 😂 the 2nd test was great and we now have some takeaways to work on over the winter. We also found out that we have a huge hole in our jump training as oxers are absolutely terrifying. SO we will be doing transitions and oxers for the remainder of the off season. We will come back stronger than ever!

Una is a formerly free roaming mare that was nursing 2 babes when they were collected. She is blind in her left eye but has adapted well to life. She can lead and do basic groundwork and has been saddled. That being said she really would love to live out her days just being loved by someone. She’s lived a long hard life and she would appreciate a quiet place to settle down. She’s eager to meet you in the field for scratches and cookies. She’s been quiet around the farm and she took care of yearling Harry Trotter before he left. If you’re looking for a kind older companion you can reach out to

“Bonnie” is a 2013 QH mare and she’s looking for a new pasture 🤩 if you like big booties then this one is for you!

She has a history of some reining but is a bit rusty as she has mainly done trails and munched grass for a few years. I have not had her around cows but I’m told she knows what they are. She is kind and has a strong desire to please but can get a bit anxious when she can’t find the correct answer. She is sensitive to leg and hand aids. She is a bit too sensitive for beginners but has done well with an advanced beginner during a lesson. She does do well with kids being led around on her. She is best suited for someone looking to have fun and trail ride or even do arena work and some light shows. She has been playing with some liberty work and seems to enjoy that also.

Standing at slightly over 14’1 but stout as they get with solid feet. Bonnie stands great for farrier and grooming and baths. She is currently barefoot and sound. Very easy keeper. Her one vice is that she does have some bug allergies but it’s easily managed by fly gear. She has phenomenal stall manners but also does great living out. She’s really quite easy to have around.

Bonnie is a fun ride in the right hands and she could go multiple directions! Undersaddle pics and video coming soon.

Harry Trotter is learning all about manners and what it means to have a partnership with people. He’s come a long way since he was collected with his mother on a mountain road. Today we worked on staying out of my “bubble” while also staying soft on the lead. We finished off with a light lesson on standing “tied”. It’s fake tied so that if he pulls back it will give and allow him to move. Nothing spooks a horse more than feeling trapped so it’s best to ease into tying when you start teaching it. Harry is a yearling so we do everything in moderation with him and don’t push him as hard as we push the older horses. It’s more important that they fully understand the concepts you teach them without them getting anxiety every time they’re worked with.

Who is looking for a fun (and cute!) project and new addition the fam? Trigger is looking for a new pasture and he’s about as cute as it gets. Once an upon a time he was a trail horse but he’s been sitting for the better part of the last few years. He could use a diet and a 30 day boot camp but then he should be up and running like a champ! Serious inquiries only, owner will be very picky about where Trigger is placed. He is a loved member of the family but he has been on the back burner for some time so they are looking for the next family to give him the attention he deserves. Inquiring minds can DM me and I can pass along info.

Happy birthday Ella!! Ella is our working student and she has been so helpful around the farm and is always up for going along with my crazy antics. I’m still not allowed to ride per doctors orders so today I put Ella on 3 horses with known behavioral issues that we have been working through and Ella stayed calm and confident on all of them and they all did so great! Ella’s hard work and dedication and bright attitude are hard to find these days and we feel honored that we get to be a part of her journey. I’m so proud of how far she has progressed in both her riding and her overall horsemanship. I’m excited to see how you continue to grow and thrive!
