Meet Our Horses

Captain-9091.jpg

Captain

Captain is the biggest horse on the Ranch! He is a 16 year old Percheron, one of the largest horse breeds originating in France and known for their intelligence and willingness to work. Captain is one of our most surefooted trail horses and we use him almost every day!

China-9160.jpg

China

China is R barn mascot! She is a pinto mini horse, and she's been here since
2009! You will often see her wandering around the barn and on the big lawn
during the day!

Cowboy-8954.jpg

Cowboy

Cowboy is one of our most popular horses here at R Ranch! He is 18 years old and has been here since 2013! Cowboy loves meeting new people and taking them out on trail rides. He loves his job here at R Ranch and has never had a bad hair day!

Dakota-9002.jpg

Dakota

Dakota is a 17 year old red paint mare! She is very well behaved in the arena
and on trail rides. Dakota is mostly used as a kids horse but can be ridden by adults too!

Delilah-8938.jpg

Delilah

Delilah is a 20 year old black Percheron Quarter Horse cross. She is one of the sweetest and most gentle horses we have here on the ranch! Delilah will take trails nice and easy for new riders and help people gain confidence! Delilah is one our most consistent trail horses and despite her big size she is quite the gentle giant!

Fireball-9015.jpg

Fireball

Fireball is a 17 year old sorrel Quarter Horse! He is a very well trained horse and used to work with cows and compete in team roping events! Now that he leads a quiet life here at the ranch, he is often used for riders of any skill level or age in the arena, and out on the trails. Fireball is a big component of helping the
wranglers train R new horses, by ponying them on trails and getting them used to new riders!

Gauge-9050.jpg

Gauge

Gauge is a 8 year old Quarter Pony, and is one of the newer horses here at the R-Ranch. He is a very sweet and curious horse and will always nose around your pockets for treats! Gauge is still a little nervous when he has a saddle on his back but is making a lot of quick progress! He is perfect when on the ground, and has a great foundation to be a good kids horse!

Maddie-8978.jpg

Maddie

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.

Mater-9086.jpg

Mater

Mater is one of R training horses! He is a 12 year old sorrel with a big white
blaze, with a hook at the top. He had an injury earlier last year that caused him to be put on a rest from training, but now that he is fully healed he is making loads of progress!

Molly-8967.jpg

Molly

Molly is a 14 year old Quarter Horse. She has been a ranch horse since 2015,
but was on the property even before then. Molly was undergoing training to be a reining horse prior to her becoming a member of the R-Ranch herd!

Peppy-9020.jpg

Peppy

Peppy is one of our most well used horses here at the Ranch! He was purchased in 2013, along with another one of R favorites Cowboy! He was used as a barrel racing horse prior to coming here at the ranch! He can be a little grumpy when other horses get behind him, but he is a solid horse that will happily pack around kids and adults!

Rowdy-9125.jpg

Rowdy

Rowdy is a 7 year old Quarter horse that came to the Ranch last year with 6 other horses! While he didn't have any training before coming to the ranch, he has progressed so much! Rowdy was given his name for his wild attitude the first couple weeks on the ranch, but now he is the sweetest horse you've ever met.
He is often seen leading trail rides or just tagging along in the back.

Smokey-9049.jpg

Smokey

Smokey is a 14 year old Flea Bitten Grey. He is used in a majority of our arena
rides for the kids and does a great job! He has mild arthritis in his front legs that is easily managed with pain medication. Smokey is an arena only horse to try
and slow the progression of his arthritis and keep him comfortable.

Troubadour-9085.jpg

Troubadour

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!
