THE MINIS

Who are these special little horses?

BRAVE

​Brave is a 33 inch Appaloosa mini with the patience and personality to be an excellent therapy mini.  He was a mini show horse prior to coming to us.  He was driven as a mini driving horse with carriage and he now does therapy and also parades in the local area.  Brave has never met a stranger.  He loves to get on the carriage and take a Sunday afternoon drive or is right at home in the house too.  

JADE

​Jade is our smallest mini at about 29 inches tall, but we don't tell her that as she is much bigger in her mind with a lot of attitude.  She is very content and happy to be fussed and brushed, she is a girly girl and even has her own tutu that she wears on some visits.

RAPPY​

Rappy came to us in Jan, 2014 as a donation and we are so thankful for him.  He also was a former show horse and pulls a carriage.  We are integrating him slowly but he is not new to therapy as he had done children's hospital visits previously in N.M.  

ANGEL

​Angel moved to Texas from Missouri in 2017 when we retired Lace from driving.  She has been driven and shown and knows her business on the cart.  When things changed in March, 2019 and we started doing window visits since we could not go in buildings.  Since Angel is a tall girl we started taking her as she could be seen outside the windows where Jade was too short.  She is still driven and will go back to showing this year and doing visits outside.  She is just an all around mini horse and loves kids.

LACE

Picture
We acquired Lace in 2008 and she was trained to drive and hitched in 2010.  We showed until 2017 and did well. She is a little power house for driving, however we decided to retire her.  She does well at obstacles and has started doing some of the barn visits with groups.   She will never leave the farm and is here forever.  Lace is Jade's mother and after not seeing each other for 4 yrs, Jade came home and they remembered each other.  Bobbi, pictured in the carriage, says Lace is a special mini to her.
