Meet the TPF Horses
Tucker and Sampson. Tucker (buckskin) came to us a few years ago as an emaciated, unhealthy gelding. His owner was "selling" him after having him 20 years because of financial difficulties. We agreed to take him here and boy what a dream he is. He is always with his best friend Sampson, typically in the large pasture with cows. Sampson was adopted from another rescue 15 years ago. He was from a neglect case where he was left standing in a stall with muck up to his hocks. Sam is the boss of the farm. He is in his 20's now.
Montana is a 4 year old Palomino Quarter Horse. Her owner surrendered her 2 years ago when she went blind. Montana will always live here, where she can be safe. Montana is very very loved and does very well in her pasture despite being blind. She usually has 1-2 equine companions in her pasture to keep her company.
Delilah just came to the farm in August 2024. She is not a rescue horse. She belonged to our good friend and was sold 5 years ago to another friend. When that friend decided to rehome her, we asked for her. She is in her 20's and lives with Montana as her companion. Delilah is a dream and loved just as much as all of the rescues. Unfortunately, we lost Delilah to aspiration from choking. She choked over night while we slept. Even though the vet came immediately the morning when we found her, it was too late. Delilah broke our hearts and she will always be remembered.
Pixel was adopted by us from another rescue about 10 years ago. He currently is leased by a friend where he is very loved. He hasn't lived on the farm for a few years now but is ALWAYS welcome back here.
Emma, Sampson, and Tucker. Emma is a sanctuary horse that retired here from a life of therapeutic riding. She is very loved by her previous people, as well as everyone here on the farm. Emma is in her 20's and has cushings. She is doing well on medication.
Tucker, Emma, Sampson and Daphne. Daphne is a large Belgian draft mare. She came to us in an emergency situation where she needed to be removed from her living situation but had no place to go. She is a delight on the farm and very affectionate to humans and animals (as long as no grain is involved).
Pippa is a Thoroughbred that came from a friend's farm. She needed to be retired from the lesson program and her owner wanted to make sure she was loved and not flipped form home to home. Pippa has sarcomas all over her vulva and anus that we monitor with our veterinarian. We have tried to remove some but they just came back. We promised her that we would keep her safe, loved and comfortable until it is time to let her humanely pass. Pippa is BEST FRIENDS with Montana, our blind mare
Typical Pippa. Pippa hates being a grey mare. She wants to be a chestnut mare and therefore will seek out any mud or dirt and roll until she is nice and red! This is an ongoing joke on the farm about how dirty Pippa always is.
Daphne, our gentle giant.
Batman is a teenage mini horse that came to us with Flash and Jelly (goats). He is currently living with Montana and thinks he is a big man. Batman is very loved by his family and we promised him he would live here forever.
Our beautiful Emma. She retired here from a therapeutic riding facility. She has a bit of a limp in her rear leg and has cushings but she thrives here.
George is a young Thoroughbred that came to us when he has to be retired from riding. His owner loves him dearly and keeps in touch with us. George thrives without riding and is completely sound on the ground. He does have some medical issues with his legs.
