Meet our team
Candy
Cactus Candy Chip "Candy" is a registered Paint horse. We bough her and her foal from a friend who found her at auctions. Candy was pretty skinny and did not have a lot of energy when we got her. She is a smart and gentle horse.
Count Orzel
aka Lucky
Count Orzel aka Lucky is a registered pure bred Arabian horse. His close ancestor ORZEL++ comes from a history of champions. We have been able to trace Lucky's ancestors up to the early 1800's. Like grand'pa, Count Orzel "Lucky" was a race horse; he won a few races. Lucky probably did not have the perfect life until we rescued him; he was in a really bad shape. Today he lives happy with his family. Lucky is such a good horse!
Babe
Babe is a Tennessee Walker mix bred. A friend of ours gave Babe to us, she was not ridden much and was living without companions.
She is now ridden, she taught us a lot about horse behavior.
She is a great beginner rider horse.
Shadow
Shadow is a Paint horse. Shadow is Candy's foal. We started working with him at 3 years old, and previous sustained ground work. Shadow is a great horse, smart, focused and always wanting to do his best. Shadow is your guide's horse.
Shirley & Laverne
Laverne and Shirley our Halflingers driving and work team. Always ready to help and do something on the ranch.
Tiley
Tiley is a Brabant Percheron draft horse mix.
She is the last addition to our horses family and is learning how to help working on the fields.
