Meet Our Horses
“Nativity’s Star” – Although the smallest, standing at less than 8 hands tall, this chocolate palomino-colored, 6-yr old Miniature Horse is technically NOT a pony. Even still, he carries up to 70 lbs, is shown in leadline divisions and loves his pony riders and parties!
“Nativity’s Vincenzo Remembered” is our alpha in the herd, aka “Vinnie”, the boss of the paddock when Teresa isn’t around. But don’t be intimidated as he is an absolute mush with his human friends. Standing at 15.3 hands high, this bay American Quarter horse has quite noble bloodlines for his simple, gentle, trail ride-lovin personality. A former barrel racing star, he adores new riding students, trail riders and carrots, of course!
“Nativity’s Angel” is a 14-yr old Pony of The Americas (POA). He is the life of the party in this herd! He is our versatile jet-setter. Jumping is his fun and trail rides are too, so pick your passion but pick something as he will not stand around patiently satisfied with nothing to do like the others. But he knows his manners and boundaries so he is a good boy who teaches our students how to keep it moving and realize your potential more than you initially believe of yourself! He is confidence personified, or “horsonified”.
“Welcome the auburn mare with the southern belle accent! Afraid of little to nothing, this leggy 16 hand high American Saddlebred beauty turns the heads of equines and people alike! She humbly pounded the pavement for 14 years on the roads as a Mennonite buggy driving horse down south. Happy to start her new chapter here (after being restarted under saddle for a year) as a lesson and trail horse, come and make Lady May’s stay here an even happier one!”
