Our Horses

Merlin

 

Merlin is a 25-year-old gelding Quarter horse. He was rescued with Annabella from the slaughterhouse in Mississippi and they traveled on the long road to freedom together. Merlin is a sweetheart, but he is still learning to trust again.

He had never been given a treat before he arrived at Fox Moon Farm and didn’t know what a carrot was. It took some time, but now, he loves his carrots. 

Romeo

 

Romeo is a Paint gelding who came to live with us with his best pal Baby Bear (who is a mini). Baby Bear is half his size, but he wouldn’t know it. Watching them together is adorable! They follow each other everywhere.

Big hearted and sweet, Romeo is exactly what his name says –a lover at heart and the perfect therapy horse. The kids love him.

Sunbeam

 

Sunbeam is a Missouri Fox Trotter, an older fellow and sweet as pie. He used to live and work down in Virginia Beach at another therapeutic program for children and is very gentle and kind.

He knows how to kick a ball and other tricks, which he’s teaching to the rest of the herd. He’s pretty shy and is just starting to make friends with the rest of the boys in the herd.

Napoleon

 

Say hello to the latest addition to the herd. Napoleon is our miniature donkey, who we like to call Uncle Nappy. He is our cool, laid back dude who loves to hang out with the kids and is as social as can be. Nappy’s small stature makes him perfect for our students who are a little bit nervous of the big horses.
