Molly is a 14 year old Paint/QH cross. She stands 14.1 hands high and let me tell you this beautiful little gal is one classy lady! She has a wonderful western pleasure walk and jog, but she can also stride out if you ask her. After several years of not being ridden you would think she might be a bit rusty, but no! She rides like she never missed a day of training! Turns on the forehand, turns on the haunches, plow reins, neck reins, responsive to your legs, this mare can do it all. She was also a contest horse! Talk about fitting a lot into a small package! To top it off she is a gorgeous sorrel with mega chrome. Big blaze and four white legs. She's sound as a dollar with no vices. This classy mare would be a great western pleasure or contest horse for a kid or young adult.
Update 9/9/11 Molly just continues to impress! We threw a western saddle on her and put her through her paces and man oh man did she do a great job of it. In spite of the fact that due to the rains we have been getting she has been cooped up in a stall most of the week she was focused and business-like. She paid no attention to her friends who were calling for her non-stop and she did some very nice walk/trot/canter work. We also took her on a short ride through the creek and woods close to the house. She was great. She walked straight into the creek without even thinking about it and headed straight to the deepest part! Considering how short she is and how high the creek is now I thought I might get my feet wet!! As soon as we headed down to the creek she perked right up. She had her ears forward, taking everything in, and enjoying every minute of it. Molly really is a horse that can do it all. She can do ringwork if you want a horse to show (western, english, contest) or she can also go out and be rock-solid on the trails if thats what you want.....or hey you could do both with her!
Update 10/17/11 Little miss Molly was a superstar this weekend! We took her and The Admiral to Ohio University's homecoming parade and she was fabulous!! She was a last minute substitution when another horse was unable to be used. That meant she hadn't been ridden much in preparation or seen all the feathers and streamers she would be wearing. She was calm and level headed about everything including the big pumpkin balloon several floats ahead, the loud music from the float directly in front of us, and other parade participants running back and forth with picket signs. The throngs of people didn't affect her at all and when we went past the section with the intoxicated people she was fine with being close enough to give high-5's to people in the crowd. She was a pleasure to ride and I knew that I was ABSOLUTELY safe with her. She has also been used to give some lessons here at the farm and has spent more time out on the trails. There really aren't enough good things to say about this mare. She can do ANYTHING, has a super sweet personality and is flashy to boot!
Update 1/19/2012 Molly is currently in Rhode Island under the care of our trusted associate Kathy Lee. Please contact Kathy at 401-486-7952 for an appointment to see her there.

Saddle sore nearly 4" long
One of a handfull of brands this horse has received in his lifetime.
The Mexican
The Mexican: 20- year Pasofino gelding, 14 hh. This guy has been through the wringer of life – twice. Sound and sad, he is true to the breed. Quick and agile, he has a smooth trot and a super nice canter. Great on the trails (water, woods, roads, etc.), he has been there and done that. He is suitable for an advanced beginner or an intermediate rider – someone who understand this breed.
Adoption fee: $200.00 |

(Left: Luke, Right: Hermes)
Hermes
10-year old, 16-hand TB x Paint - what kind of paint, we do not know. What we do know is that he is handsome and elegant. Under saddle, Hermes will excel with a confident, novice rider. He loves to move forward and will make an excellent companion tackling the trails. With a little consistency, we think he will go all day. On his first day out of the ring, he proudly walked through water with just a little coaxing. He loves to be groomed. He does have one front leg that turns out a bit. But he is willing and able to do dressage, hunters, trail, etc., but should stick to being ridden on the flat.

Boots A.K.A Baby is an approximately 5-6yo chestnut paint mare who stands 14.2hh. She needs groceries- THATS FOR SURE! She was (allegedly) broke to ride and then suffered some abuse. Rescued by her most recent owner who due to unforseen circumstances had to leave her beloved horses behind and move to the S.W. part of this great country. I will say that she is eagerly familiar with trails, traffic, water, etc. She has a nice QH type trot and is a lovely mover. She does need someone with confidence and patience to start her over. Then when the groceries kick in and she fills out like she should you will have one stout little trail horse.
