Our Family of Horses

I am one of the friendliest horses at Holly Hill Farm. I am a bay Quarter pony. My niche in the program is to teach the younger beginner riders how to walk, trot and canter. I also love treats—apples and carrots of any kind.

I’m Bugs. I have been at Holly Hill for many years now. I am part Arabian therefore just a little bit shy until you get to know me. Besides giving you a great ride I love to hang out with my friends while grazing in the field. My best friends are Brandy and Buttons.

Don’t let my age fool you. I am still “Cute as a Button”!! I am very sweet and easy to handle on the ground. With my short stature I am great for teaching the younger kids how to ride. I am a small Shetland Pony and even taught your instructor, Lisa, how to ride!

You may also know me as “Case Closed.” Tall, dark and handsome—yep that pretty much explains me!! I am a young, dark bay Thoroughbred. When you meet me you will notice I have quite the personality! My favorite thing to do is jump and I also love to compete in horse shows. Currently I am on a full lease.

My name is “Cocoa Chanel.” I am a tall, Appendix Quarter Horse. I am mostly used as a lease horse for advanced riders. I am currently in foal to Federalist, a Hanoverian Stallion from California. I am a young mare with lots of personality.

Also known as “Just Done Rite,” I am a barn favorite. I have a quiet and friendly temperament. I am a great lesson horse, because I am so much fun to ride. I have taught countless students how to ride because I am good at taking directions.

My name is “Howie Do It.” I am a grey, Thoroughbred, gelding. When I first came to Holly Hill I was very young and did not know too much. Now they taught me how to jump and I absolutely love it!! I am ridden by intermediate/advanced riders.

My name is Jack. I’m a Thoroughbred, but I am actually really, really slow. I am a great horse to learn how to jump on. I am used for beginning jumping lessons.

-SOLD- Congratulations Katie Sanders! I am a chestnut, Quarter Horse, gelding. If you look closely at my muzzle you will notice I have a mustache. Many of my riders find it interesting and funny to look at. I have a short, Quarter Horse stride that makes it easy for my rider to stay with.

Hello, my name is Misty. I am a cross between a Quarter Horse and a Morgan. I know my job and I do it well. I am forgiving of all mistakes and a favorite among the kids and adults as well.

I am the smallest pony at Holly Hill. They call me “Finding Nemo.” I enjoy attending summer horse camp because I teach the little kids how to become effective and strong riders. I love to groomed and be turned out all day long. I am a young Shetland pony who enjoys being exercised in my pony cart. I also attend the Avon Lake Memorial Day parade every year.

Hello. I am Peter Pan aka “Pushy Pete.” I am a buckskin colored, Welsh Pony. The reason I get pushy sometimes is because I love food and I will make a detour for the grass when leading. Other than that I am so much fun to ride. In my younger days I was very competitive on the show circuit and won many championships such as Pony of the Year!

I am a 12 year old, bay Quarter Horse. I am fairly new to the lesson program, but I am a fast learner. I am ridden by beginning/intermediate riders. I have slow gaits and I enjoy jumping. Most of all, I provide hours of fun for any one who rides me.

I am a grey, Warmblood cross. I have a smooth canter and I love to jump. I am naturally a playful horse and I try my best to listen to my rider. I can be just a little spooky at times, but that is just because I am young and have a lot to learn.
