Michelle reports that all is well with Bean, who is well loved by the kids. She’s been ridden by both Michelle and her daughter, who report that even with time off from riding, Bean is great under saddle. They are hoping to get an…

June Volunteer of the Month: Amie Smith
How and when did you first get involved with horses? Do you have one now you want to tell us about? Our family bought its first Morgan when I was in 3rd or 4th grade. His name was Abner and he was the kindest, most gentle horse! We used to go visit him on weekends at the stables close to our house in Southern California. I loved grooming him and riding him in the arena. Eventually we purchased…

Buddy, the Sweetest New Kid on the Block
Horsemanship volunteer Kaya had this to share about lovable Buddy: Buddy is the sweetest old guy! I’ve been spending some time with this gentleman for the last couple of months and have enjoyed every minute. Buddy greets everyone that walks up to his paddock very politely, sometimes with a little nicker, and always with ears forward, wanting some scratches. He clearly loves to be doted on, but…
