ELSA

Elsa is a draft mule estimated to be a 2005 model. She is roughly 16.2hh and thick. Besides having worn down teeth (does best having some grain, though she can eat hay too), she is in good physical shape with no known soundness or health issues. 

Elsa was supposedly a pack mule out west and came to us from Colorado. She is wary of people, though once caught leads and ties and picks up her feet. She is not used to having a rider, but could be started under saddle by an intermediate rider. She will carry a saddle OK and has decent ground manners. Pack animals are typically easy to start under saddle. 

Adoption Fee: $1250

George

George is a standardbred gelding (2004 model - registered name Graziano Blue Chip). He stands at 14.1hh so pony sized. 

 

George is a gentle, well mannered fellow. He can be fearful of new things but once he warms up, is great. He does best having some grain to catch, but once caught, listens perfectly. 

George has arthritis in both front fetlocks. He can still be ridden, but light (walk) work only. Short trail rides, pony rides, etc would be best for him. He also would make a great companion. 

Adoption Fee: $500

Alma

Alma is a absolutely beautiful Morgan type mare. She stands a nice tall 16hh. Alma is estimated to be a 2010 model. 

Alma is a lovely girl - she loves attention, easy to catch lead load tie and handle. Good for the vet and farrier. Gets along with others in the pasture, respects fences, etc. She is an easy keeper. 

Alma does have arthritis in her left front coffin bone and right hind fetlock. She is pasture sound and sound to walk work. She loves trail rides and is good for pony rides. 

Adoption Fee: $750

Paco

Paco is a 1999 QH gelding who stands a nice big 15.3hh. He is very handsome and sweet and personable. 

Paco is easy to catch, but can be somewhat pushy on the ground. 

We have ridden him and he tolerates it, but if riding were to be in his future a good refresher by an intermediate+ would be needed. 

Paco gets along well with other horses and would also make a good companion. 

He is hard to load. We can load him, but it would likely not be a best fit for him to have a life where he needed to be loaded with frequency. 

Adoption Fee: $750

Nick

Nick is a very handsome Belgian draft horse gelding who stands at 16.3hh. He is approximately 22 years old

 

Nick is best suited as a  pasture ornament, but can do light pony rides and is very sweet. He has arthritis in his stifles which limits his working life, but he loves attention and is overall a good boy!

Adoption Fee: $1500

Picket

Elsa is a mule estimated to be a 2006 model. She is roughly 16.1hh. Picket has no known soundness or health issues. 

Picket was supposedly a pack mule out west and came to us from Colorado. She is wary of people, though once caught leads and ties and picks up her feet.

 

We have ridden her, and while she doesn't understand it super well she was tolerant. An intermediate rider working with a trainer could finish her out!

Adoption Fee: $1250
