Spirit
This handsome guy came to Triple R about two years ago. He was the only horse of an elderly couple and was used to being doted upon by his owners. When they passed away, their family was unable to care for Spirit, and Triple R took him in. Since then, he has been lovingly cared for by his foster. He appears to have been an only horse for much of his life; however, he has adjusted very well to horse companions. Most recently, he has fallen in love with his newest pasture mate, Beauty.

Choco
When volunteers went to pick up Choco, he was tied to a stake in a dirt yard, lethargic, hardly able to breathe and with one of the highest parasite loads the rescue's vet had ever seen. But after three mouth surgeries, good groceries, and a gain of 400 pounds, he became a different horse. This approximately 8-year-old gelding, who looks like a Spanish Barb, is full of life and mischief. He loves to yank saddles and blankets off racks when no one is looking and he's as curious as a cat. Choco also loves his food, especially after-dinner apple and banana treats, and peppermints.

Little Buddy
Little Buddy is a gentle and rideable 20-year-old gelding. At 14.2 hands tall, he would make a great kids horse for light riding. With some work/training, he might even make a good trail horse, but he is missing one eye, so it may take a little extra work/time to get him comfortable with new/unfamiliar trails.
We don't know how/when Little Buddy lost his eye, but it was either a recent injury when he came to Triple R or wasn't cared for properly. As a result, Triple R had to send him in for surgery and the best aftercare possible with his foster Jonelle Womble and her students at Fit & Sit Equine Services. Under their care and attention, he has healed up, and he's ready to find his forever family!
We are unsure about his breed but believe him to be a Quarter Horse mix of some sort-- his foster thinks there might be some Morgan in there.
