Our Horses and Barn Family

Cleo

Cleo is a Suffolk Punch Draft Horse. She stands 15.1 hands tall. Cleo is very smart, making it easy to incorporate her into our lesson program. Watch your pockets, though, because she will take any treats you have!

Felix

Felix is a red dun Quarter Horse standing at 15.3 hands tall. Felix is very sensitive and mirrors the heart of his rider, making him very good with our therapeutic students. Felix is a little shy, but he loves a good cuddle and some treats.

Jingles

Jingles is our gentle giant! Jingles is a 16.2 hand tall Palomino Belgian mare. She has been used in every program we offer. Jingles won quite a few blue ribbons in the show ring and her confidence translates to her riders.

Ellie Mae (semi-retired!)

Ellie Mae is the oldest horse in the barn and one of our stars! She is a Palomino Quarter Horse and an all-time favorite with our therapeutic riding students. Ellie can no longer offer rides but was a master at putting physically and emotionally challenged riders at ease and helping them overcome their struggles. Ellie Mae continues her career as a ground work therapist. She has not met a person she does not like.

Kobe

Kobe is a black Morgan Horse and every little girl's dream! With a kind spirit and a can-do attitude he's perfect for our beginner young riders and therapeutic students.

Oakie

Oakie is a 16 hand bay Quarter horse. He used to be a chase pony at Saratoga Racetrack but enjoys the slower pace of carrying our therapeutic riders in their lessons. Oakie will give kisses to anyone with a treat.

Buddy

Buddy is a bay Quarter Horse and an inquisitive guy. He supports all Victoria Acres programs and loves a visit and treats!

Holly

Holly is our resident Donkey. She is friendly but shy and loves someone to come down to her level. Her quiet way makes her an excellent therapy animal, giving even our smallest and most quiet students confidence to take on the day.
