Lesson Horses

Take a look at our current generation of lesson horses! These are the saints that make up our lesson program. We are blessed with a fantastic group of lesson horses!

Zach is a 2000 Quarab gelding. Zach is a great intermediate lesson horse. He is more forward moving than our beginner horses but pretty reliable otherwise. Zach retired in 2023 and is enjoying the retirement he deserves!

Gems Dun Jac, aka Ellie, is a 2000 QH mare. Ellie is our steady, super safe beginner horse. Our youngsters start out on her and even our tiny kids can be safely turned loose in our big arena on Ellie. She may not be the fastest, but she is safe and reliable! Ellie retired a few years ago and passed away in 2024. She was a special horse that touched the lives of many.

Booberry Schnapps is a 2001 Morab gelding. Boo is a great horse for those that are ready for something with a little more spunk and speed. Boo retired in 2024 and is also enjoying the retired life. Him and Zach live together and enjoy a quiet retirement.

Jack is a 2001 TB gelding. Jack was Allison’s first horse and holds a special place in her heart. Jack is now retired from the lesson program and living the life of luxury at a friends farm.

Lil’ Bita Lena, aka Italy, is a 2000 Quarab mare. Italy is Allison’s personal horse, but has recently moved into the lesson program as well. She has quickly become a go-to beginner horse, which is something Allison never thought would happen!

Unlimited Shock and Awe, aka Shock, is a 2003 Morgan gelding. Shock is our other beginner lesson horse. He is quiet and steady and has very smooth gaits which make him fantastic for those just learning to ride. He is our go-to canter horse and teaches all riders how to canter for the first time.

Saraid is a 2007 American White Horse mare. Sara is another one of our intermediate horses. Sara has transitioned from a horse only for advanced kids, to now toting around beginners quite well, and for that we’re grateful!

Rose Colored Cattylac, or Lucy, is a 2008 Paint mare. Lucy has quickly become a favorite with the lesson kids. She’s more forward but still has a nice canter which makes her a great horse when kids are ready to move off of Shock and onto a different canter horse. She’s also learning the ropes of being a jumping horse and calmly trots over the jumps, making her an easy choice for beginners!

Ima Little Stuck, aka Stuck, is a 2017 QH filly. Stuck just entered the lesson program after summer camp in 2021 and is doing a fantastic job. Stuck has been taking on more lesson students each year, and has become a pretty solid mount in our lesson program.

The Next Generation!

Aging is a part of life, so as our current generation of lesson horses edge closer to retirement, check out the youngsters that will be our next generation! While they aren’t really “young” anymore, they are working with our teens to eventually take the full lesson program over.

Steady Eddie is a 2018 QH gelding. Eddie is a chill, laid back dude that we hope will live up to his name and be the future Shock and Ellie of our next generation. The teens ride Eddie and are doing a good job preparing him to eventually move on to beginners.

Hancock Amara Moon, aka Amara, is a 2018 QH filly. While we were expecting Amara to be our next generation’s spicy horse that is for those that like fire breathing dragons, she’s actually completely shocked us and is actually a pretty chill filly. She does occasionally have her moments, but she’s actually become pretty level headed and calm!

Dunit Makin Freckles, aka Tank, is a 2019 QH gelding. Tank is maturing quite well and looking like he’ll live up to his name. Tank is pretty mellow and calm under saddle and the teens are probably bored out of their minds with him. He’ll start taking on new riders this year and hopefully work his way slowly to beginner mount.

Isle Be A Skipper, or Jonah, is a 2019 QH gelding. Jonah is pretty quiet most of the time, but occasionally find a fire inside him. The teens are teaching him the ropes of becoming a reliable, steady horse.

Banzai just came to us in July of 2025. He is a 2021 Gypsy Vanner. He was quite unexpected, but has been a huge addition in our next generation string. He’s moved seamlessly into the lesson program, already doing 2-3 lessons a week. Right now he still needs riders old enough to not let him get away with things, but I am confident he’ll make a great Shock replacement when it’s time for Shock to retire.

Archie is a 2022 Welsh Pony. He came from Texas from some great friend’s of Allison’s. He will be Allison’s next personal horse and she looks forward to all the things they can accomplish together!
