Our Horses 

Our horses are carefully selected for their temperament and personality.  We believe there is an equine partner for every person who comes to our barn that they can relate to, and bond with.

Belle

I am a 30 year old Quarter horse. I have lots of experience being in Gymkhanas and really like to barrel race! I became a therapy horse recently and am enjoying being around all of the friendly people. 

Clue

Travis

Haley

I am a 16 year old Percheron mare and lived in northern New Mexico before coming to the El Paso area a few years ago.  I am very friendly and curious and really love being with people.  I’ve taught many youngsters how to ride and get along well with the other horses - even though I am the tallest of the bunch standing over 18 hands!

Floppy

I am a Missouri Fox Trotter mixed with Quarter horse.  In my 30 years I have lived in many places in the U.S. and loved to explore the trails wherever I have lived.  I also have many years of experience competing in 4-H activities – from showing English, doing gymkhana events and have even done a little jumping.

Zane

I am a 14 year old Tennessee Walker gelding.  I came from NM where I carried many riders on pack trip adventures in the Gila Wilderness.  I recently retired to become a therapy horse. 

Spunky

I am a 39 year old Welch/Arabian pony who has been working as a therapy pony since 1992. I absolutely love people and like to make people smile when I am mischievous! 

Chappy

I am a 26 year old Quarter horse who is just learning about being a therapy horse. I have roped and worked cattle and taught a lot of youngsters how to ride. But I really enjoyed watching people when they did the trick roping standing on my back! 

Sterling

I am a 21 year old Ranch bred registered quarter horse and have experience showing in Ranch Horse classes.  Recently I have discovered the therapy environment and am enjoying my new job working with all of the participants.  I still look forward to a trail ride every now and then, especially in the desert.
