Rowdy
Registered Name: Rogala Signet
Birthdate: August 4, 1985
Breed: Arabian
I have had Rowdy for 18 years. He is English and Western trained. He has been my show, trail and gaming horse as well as faithful companion.
Ally
Registered Name: Wyse's First Alabai
Birthdate: March 25, 1983
Breed: Double Registered Paint/Pinto
I have had Ally for 24 years. Unfortunately, due to an accident as a foal, several bones were broken in her face, and she is not able to wear any kind of bridle. She has lived her life with us and now gets spoiled by the attendees at Life On a Horse Ranch.
Gypsy
Registered Name: Jypsy Lady
Birthdate: 2002
Breed: Paint
We purchased Gypsy from the Chehalis auction a few years ago to use in our lesson program. She has previous experience as a therapeutic lesson horse and has had to learn that lessons last longer than 20 minutes. Gypsy is trained Western.
Dante
Birthdate: June 30, 2000
Breed: Paint
Dante is Ally's first baby. He loves to have his withers scratched and makes camel faces because it feels so good.
Pecan
Registered Name: Basks Sienna Kismet
Birthdate: June 18, 1999
Breed: Arabian
Pecan came to us as a trained Western horse. It didn't take long to realize she had been badly abused. With kindness and time she has learned to trust and is now accepting a rider. She has a ways to go before she can be used for lessons but she will be trained both English and Western.
Pearl
Registered Name: Black Lake Mini Pearl
Birthdate: May 25, 1995
Breed: Miniature Horse
We were looking for a cart trained horse to add to our Life On a Horse Ranch program. We found Pearl in Oregon right before Christmas 2009. She is our little diva and demands her share of the attention whenever she is brought into the arena.
Misty
Registered Name: Mystic Banker
Birthdate: July 27,1994
Breed: Paint
Misty is on loan from a friend in Arlington. Misty is Western trained but is currently being tuned up after having spent a few years on vacation.
Parker
Birthdate: 1999
Breed: Quarter Horse
Parker came to us to use a lesson horse and we have had him approximately 2 years. He is trained Western.
Cat
Registered Name: Cat's First Alibi
Birthdate: April 26, 2003
Breed: Paint
Cat is Ally's second baby. Cat has recently begun her training and will be trained Western.
Bella
Birthdate: July 29, 1985
Breed: Arabian
Bella was the top producing showhorse for Alabee Stables. She is trained Western and English.
Bones
Registered Name: Deans Go Go
Birthdate: March 24, 1982
Breed: Quarter Horse
Bones came to us extremely thin and in very sad shape. It turned out he needed some good dentistry, proper food, and a lot of tender, loving care. Once Bones regained weight and his good health he demonstrated his awesome training. He knows when he has a beginning rider on his back and demonstrates the utmost patience. No one told him he is old. He loves to game, especially barrel racing. He can still turn barrels in 20 seconds.
Pentagon
Registered Name: El Hainzain
Birthdate: May 25, 1980
Breed: Arabian
Pentagon is one of our beginning lesson horses. He has been used as a pony club pony and is trained both English and Western. He is very patient and kind. He still has quite a bit of get up and go but only goes when asked.
Tosca
Birthdate: 1985
Breed: Arabian
Tosca came to us last fall after we lost Annie July 1, 2009. She was ridden extensively in pony club and is trained both English and Western. Tosca is very patient and kind with beginner riders but always lets me know when the lesson is over and her rider is tired. Tosca is our only true pony, being just under 14.2 hands but she does everything, just like the full sized horses.
Ghost
Birthdate: June 11, 2010
Breed: Miniature
Horse
Ghost was born on our farm and is now an orphan foal. He was originally named Midnight but as he got older he began losing his dark coat which is now turning a beautiful shade of gray. Pearl has taken over the role of aunt and she treats him as if he was her baby. So Ghost has the best of both worlds, being a human and a horse.
