Our Horses
Koda
Kool with a K
Koda is a 2010 model Paint gelding. He joined our program in 2018 after a brief career in trail riding and quickly became a barn favorite. Standing at a stocky 16hh, he is the perfect size for kids and adults alike. Koda has the temperament and willingness of a schoolmaster. He is loved most for his famous mermaid tail marking, seen best atop the saddle!
Pearl
Pearlfection
Pearl is a 2014 Appendix mare. She joined our program in 2016 and has been loved by all of our barn members ever since. Pearl is one of our largest horses, with a big heart to match! She is known for her striking blue eyes and her love of mud baths. This is a very sweet mare who will rest her head on your shoulder and take a nap, but beware: she may decide to lick you!
Pearl is Annabella's sister and Christian's mother! Do you see the family resemblance?
Loki
Lil' Loki
Loki is a 2012 Welsh pony that came to us as a yearling. He is a super smooth little guy who really does not understand that he's, well, little. Loki is kind, patient, and incredibly athletic. He is amazing with beginners and has been a great teacher to many kids. He is advanced enough to take riders as far as they can go! Loki is best suited for kids because of his size (but don't tell him that).
Pony Power!!!
Oreo
Double Stuffed
Oreo is a 1999 Pony who has been with Journey's End so long, nobody can remember when he got here! Oreo is a very calm and gentle guy. He has been happily teaching kids to ride for many years, and he is a true schoolmaster by anyone's standards. Oreo is known for his hefty appetite, and he would just LOVE for you to feed him as many carrots as you can get your hands on!
Christian
The Holy Grail
Christian is a 2017 Appendix gelding, born right here at Journey's End! This guy has the sweetest face and a super smooth canter. He has the personality of a golden retriever and he is a fantastic ride for kids and adults! When he is not being ridden, you can find Christian dozing off in a pile of hay (he probably thinks he blends in).
Pearl is Christian's momma, and Annabella is his aunt!
Meadow
Mi Amor
Meadow is a 2019 Fresian Sporthorse, a little girl with a big personality! She came to us in 2021 with Amish cart-pulling training, and easily adjusted to life as a jumper. Don't let her little tinker-toy size fool you- Meadow keeps up with our larger horses like it's nothing when she's in the jumper ring.
Waffles
Pour Some Syrup on Me
Waffles is a 2009 Paint mare who came to us in 2021 with her baby, Flapjack! She is an extravagant jumper who is just cute as a button. Waffles is an old soul who likes to take her time meandering around the ring, but when you ask her to "go", it's like she has a little turbo booster built in! Waffles does great in both the Hunter and Jumper rings. Her easygoing personality makes her well-matched for beginners, and she has the skill and training to take you to the next level!
Flapjack
Flapjack is a 2021 Paint Gelding who came to us as a weanling with his momma, Waffles! He is the cutest little guy with his wavy mane and tail and his in-your-pocket personality. Flapjack hasn't officially joined the lesson program yet, but our riders love bringing him out of the pasture to brush him and feed him treats.
Tiffany
Tipsy Tiffany
Tiffany is a 2012 OTTB who could probably jump over the moon if she wanted to. She had a nice vacation from the track and a brief stint in barrel racing before joining our program in 2020. Tiffany has a larger-than-life personality, and she uses it to show off in the Jumper ring! She is known for her giraffe legs and her affinity for dumping her grain bucket all over the ground when no one is looking.
