Meet Our Horses :: Lesson Horses
Many of our horses were rescues that we took in and gave a second start in life. This page will give you a brief introduction to our horses, but the “Read My Story” links will take you to pages where you can learn more about some of their amazing histories and the odds that they have overcome.
Gordo
Fabulous Western Quarter Horse
Gordo has been a boarder with RandM for several years. We are so pleased that his owner let’s us use him for lessons. He is well trained, well mannered and nothing scares him. Big and gentle horse who truly loves people.
Independence (Indy)
17 hand Thoroughbred
Indy was saved from the kill pen and found her way to us after a couple of not so great placements. She is tall and beautiful, calm and willing. Nice low level dressage lesson horse but also rides western. It took about 2 years of farrier work and chiropractic sessions to get her sound and ready to ride. She is a content and easy horse even for beginners.
John
16 hand Thoroughbred, Hunter/Jumper
John (Soup of the Day). Fabulous bloodlines and confirmation. After a nice career on the track, became a trail horse. Unfortunately, his owners did not take good care of him and he nearly died. John has quickly learned to jump and has been schooled in dressage. He is sweet, honest and very willing. He was in the ribbons in 4 classes at his first show in beginner hunter and has continued to do great at shows. Wonderful horse even for beginner jumpers. He is kind and honest, doesn’t spook and will do anything you ask of him. See John and Mackenzie below.
Here is a clip of John’s Sire in an amazing upset in the Breeder’s Cup.
Julep
12 hand sweet pony
Julep was saved from the kill pen and found her way here to us. She loves kids and attention from all humans. One of our favorite birthday party ponies.
Missy D
Nice Eventing Prospect - Registered Paint 14.2 hands
Miss Special Dixon came to us as a boarder when she was just a baby. Her owners disappeared and we raised and trained her. She has been used extensively in 4H shows in her early years, but more recently has shown beautifully in Hunter. She is great over fences. Quiet, great ground manners, a real pocket horse. Good with kids, but really shines as a pony jumper. She needs an experienced rider that wants an athletic horse. She would do well in eventing.
