Ponies and Minis
Cisco
Breed: Shetland Cross
Sex: Gelding
Age: 18
Height: 10.0hh
Color: Dark Bay
Adoption Fee: $350
8/19/25 Cisco continues to make great progress towards become a good equine citizen, standing for the farrier & making new friends. He is pastured 24/7 with full size horses as he prefers the company of large horses to small!
7/15/2025- He loves going for a nice stroll around the property and would make a great walking buddy. He'll follow you anywhere, over bridges and tarps, through obstacles. Continues to do well with his feet and is enjoying grooming sessions with his groom. He is still holding onto a bit of his winter coat, Cushing's stim test was normal but we are trying Prascend and he is finally starting to shed out.
7/8/2025- Update on Cisco! He is doing so well, really coming out of his shell! At times he can be a little cautious about being caught but most of the time he will come right up to say hello. Once on the line he is fine about being touched all over, except is a little sensitive still behind his back legs, mainly just offering a swish of his tail. If you go slow he will pick up his back legs with no offer of a kick and is great for picking up his front legs. He allowed us to put fly boots on all fours with no issue and we have been practicing in-hand skills including on our obstacle course. He will go over a tarp without a second thought and was great about going over the bridge. Cisco is not a kids pony but would be such a fun little addition to have on any farm.
3/7/25 Cisco is a handsome little Shetland cross with lots of personality spunk. What he lacks in size he makes up for in attitude. He tends to be top of the herd when pastured with other ponies or mini donkeys, and does well pastured with larger horses
He has no training for riding or driving so at this point. As with all ponies he require pasture and forage management to maintain a proper weight. At this time we still feel that he would do best with a confident handler who can continue to working on good manners. If you would like to add a spunky little companion to your herd, Cisco is your guy!

Suitable For: Adopter with previous horse starting experience, or experienced handler working closely with trainer
5/27/25
Valentine is 2 year old grade pony mare that was originally rounded up from the feral strip mine herds in Kentucky, and was still believed to be in foal when she was transferred to us in December, but it turned out not to be the case. Since December she has lived the life of a pregnant mare while learning the basics of handling & beginning the process of becoming a good equine citizen (while being just a youngster herself.) As we've recently confirmed she's not in foal, she's ready to find her perfect home
Shes smart, curious and with all the sass of the true toddler she is. Valentine is fun & engaging to work with, a true blank slate & a beautiful mover! Valentine will need an adopter with prior horse starting experience- or an experienced handler working closely with a trainer.
At just 2, she's not ready to be started under saddle, but her adopter can begin training and laying all the ground work
She is not yet a kids pony, or ready to be handled by children,
She IS ready to have some fun & start learning everything from the ground up!
Mariah
Breed: Pony
Sex: Mare
Age: 25+
Height: 12.2hh
Color: Black
Adoption Fee: $350 (eligible for fee-waived companion adoption)
What she lacks in size, this pony makes up for in personality. Mariah is a fun and spunky old gal who is 25+ (she feels it’s impolite to ask a lady her age).
As with all ponies, she requires proper pasture management in order to maintain her health. Mariah did not have any formal under saddle training in her younger years, but does enjoy being groomed. She does have Cushing’s disease and requires light maintenance (Prascend) to keep her healthy.
Mariah is a fun little pony with lots of spunk and personality, she is sweet and social and does well in a group of horses. Mariah is looking for her next partner in crime and would love to have a nice retirement home as a companion.
