Skyy came to us in July of 2018. She had been pretty roughly handled at some point in her life and had a hard time trusting people when we first got her. She continues to build trust in people, but still takes a little time warming up. She will spend the remainder of her life teaching people the importance of building trust and relationship and the sweetness that can come from true connection.

Genesis came to us in October of 2019. Genesis had a tough start to life, she was under a “tough hand” for the first 5-7 years of her life. During that time, she suffered a life altering injury that left her unrideable for the rest of her life. She found a new home where they tried to mend her injury, but was unsuccessful. The owner thought they would have to put her down to prevent her from going to a kill lot. We were able to rescue her and give her a second chance and a new beginning in her life. Genesis has taught us how important taking things at your own pace is. She loves people and has such gentle eyes and a gentle soul. She loves treats and being able to see everything that is happening around her. She will spend the rest of her life teaching people about grace, forgiveness, and strength.

Jasper came to us in October of 2020. He is a mustang that came from SW Oregon. For most wild mustangs, the round up can be a bit difficult and a bit of a struggle to transition from open running to being in a pen. Jasper has been able to transition from the wild to domestic life through a couple of owners and an amazing trainer. He definitely still has some wild roots in him though. He is incredibly sweet and social. He loves the attention of all people and love to get it with a bit of sass. Above all else loves to be scratched and isn’t afraid to ask for a little love!

Lily came to us in June of 2024. She is the newest member of the herd and she came from a wonderful family in Keensburg, CO. :Lily is 14 years old and she was donated to us because Lily came into some hard times a few years back when she was diagnosed with navicular disease (a progressive degenerative disease in the bones of horses hooves). Navicular disease can cause extreme pain and discomfort and with corrective shoeing and care can be managed. Lily’s navicular was able to be managed for a couple of years before she was no longer able to tolerate the pain, so her owners decided to do a neurectomy (the clipping of a horse’s nerves to their hooves) so she was no longer in pain. With that, her ability to show in the western competition shows was gone. Her owners wanted what was best for her and decided to find a home where she could ride and be a horse comfortably without high demands. Lily is sweet and loving in nature and loves a good belly scratch. She is a big fan of treats as well.

Ruah came to us in August of 2025. From what we know, she spent her life on the western slope. She had a foal as some point and when she was sold she was split from him. She was ridden and packed in the mountains. When she was sold, she stayed with that person for about 2 months before she found her home here. That is about all we know about her story. Ruah has a gentle and kind eye, yet she holds a lot of worry and concern for what is happening around her. Ruah has a hard time feeling safe enough to trust, she tries really hard in her curiosity and trying to be ok with the world around her. Ruah offers a level of sweetness in her suspicion. There is a very strong pull to her for many and she tries really hard to meet people. Ruah has a lot to teach about trying to be curious when to work feels scary. She has not given up on people and she really wants to feel safe and is finding more and more space to do so in her transition here.

Dusty came to us in August of 2025. We found Dusty at an auction and we were able to take him home that day. The story we have from Dusty is he was an extreme trail horse for a portion of his life and then he was sold to an older couple who could no longer handle him well so they listed him in this auction. Other than that all we know about Dusty is what we have experienced of him thus far. Dusty is very grounded and gentle yet a no nonsense kind of guy. He is a horse that doesn’t mind telling you when he is tapped out or when something isn’t feeling quite right. He does very much seek love and affection from people and enjoys being around people. He seems to be drawn to kiddos quite a bit and enjoys being in their presence. Dusty loves a treat here and there but we have found carrots are not his treat of choice.
