This is "Cowboy".  He is a 26 year old Arabian.  He may be
older but he is very spirited and has lots of energy.  He loves to
run on the trail and enjoys the playdays at the Cowboy church.  
He is for an intermediate rider because he can really move.  He
came to live with us at 4-C Stables because he wasn't getting
good care where he was.   He loves treats and his favorite
friend in the paddock is "Cheyenne".
This is "My O My".  He is also about 24 years old and is just as
spunky as the young horses.  He is a retired show horse that won
lots during his career.  He is usually only ridden English and
loves to canter around.   He is for intermediate riders.  "My" has
such a beautiful face and is so gentle with people - however, that
is not the case in the paddock.  He is mean and tries to run
everyone away from their food!  He lived in a stall for most of his
life and when we let him stay outside he looked like he was in
Heaven!  He hates having to go in the stall now!  We usually only
put him in when the weather is nasty!
This is "Brad".  He is a very special horse because he survived
cancer.  He had to have his left eye removed but he is doing just
great!  We were lucky enough to get "Brad" from a family that
didn't ride him anymore and wanted him to have a nice home.  He
is wonderful to be around and the kids love to ride him.  It is a bit
hard to look at him without the eye at first but then when you see
what a wonderful personality he has you forget about it!  Brad is
about 20 years old and is just a SWEET boy!
"Cheyenne"  is  one of our top lesson horses. He is a 20
year old appaloosa gelding that was donated to us by
someone that couldn't take care of him any longer.  He is
great to ride but very smart and will often test the more timid
riders!  He doesn't do anything mean but sometimes he just
wants to walk and it is hard to change his mind.  He is one of
the leaders in the herd and is always pushing the others
around.  He looks out for his pal "Cowboy" and makes sure
that they get buckets next to each other!  Other than that he
is a sweet boy and is known for his mustache!  
"Deke" is a great guy for beginners and intermediate riders
as well.  He is owned by the Walser family and they let us
use him for lessons to keep him fit.  He is somewhere
around 25 years old.  He acts like a youngster with the other
horses and plays a lot!  He had a hard life before he come
to us - as is evident by the scars on his body!  He is a very
sweet guy and loves his job.  
This is "Thunder".  He is only about 8 years old. He was
used as a camp horse for several years and then we
bought him.  He is now owned by the Boykin family and
they also let us use him for lessons.  He is a great guy
but we mainly let the more advanced riders on him.  He
is half arabian and is full of energy.
