He is a very sweet, likable pony who loves attention, is smart, and has lots of personality.
Snazzy

Snazzy is a chestnut quarter horse in his late teens. Snazzy is the resident "grumpy old man." He definitely has some sass, but wants to be loved and wants to know that he can trust his human. It has taken Snazzy awhile to come around, but he loves his head scratched and loves his "spa" days! He teaches you a lot about patience and being flexible because you can never be too sure what mood he will be in.
Theo

Theo is an American pony and a love bug! He loves getting attention as much as he loves giving attention. Theo doesn't have a mean bone in his body.

Samson
Gelding
Samson is a Oldenburg/Percheron cross horse (born 2014). Samson is quite tall at 17 hands. He was previously in training for dressage (a type of horse training) when he had to have surgery on his back legs. After the surgery, Samson fully recovered, but just was not happy doing the training. However, he is happy with a job and is great with trail riding, walking and trotting. His previous owner decided that it would be better for Samson to become a therapy horse where he can be loved on while helping humans.
