Gito is our oldest horse here at R-Ranch at 32 years old! He has been on the property since 2002, and was initially a ranch horse.

The injury no longer affects him at all but jumping is a difficult and strenuous sport, so he is now used as a trail horse! Jack is very well trained in English disciplines, reining,
cow work, and trail competitions. Despite his tiny size and impressive training he can still be a spicy ride, so he needs a confident rider to guide him.

Java is a 18 year old Quarter horse, and is easy to spot for her unique Palomino

Maddie is a 10 year old pony we got as a rescue from Texas in 2021. She is a
little bit nervous but still loves getting treats! Maddie is quite easy to recognize when she walks around in the pasture, because she doesn't really bend her back legs at all while walking. Maddie has Fibrotic Myopathy, a condition that causes scar tissue to form in the muscles after an injury, overuse, or genetic conditions.
The scar tissue does not behave the same as muscle fibers, most notably it's
inelastic and doesn't stretch. The condition does not affect her at all and almost all horses with Fibrotic Myopathy live pain free lives. Maddie is living the good life getting to run around in the pasture and get all the treats she could want.

and slow the progression of his arthritis and keep him comfortable.

Theo is an 11 year old horse that came in with Rowdy, Troubadour, and Woody! He had minimal training before coming to the R-Ranch and is a bit stubborn due to his age. Theo does very well when the wranglers ride him in the arena and pony him along on trail rides. He definitely has some prior trauma that we are still working through, but with plenty of treats and gentle words he is making steady
progress!

Troubadour is a 3 year old sorrel Quarter Horse. He is easy to recognize from the rest of R red horses for the perfect white diamond on his forehead. Troubadour is
making a lot of progress in his training because he is still young enough that he is a very fast learner!
