Gone But Not Forgotten
A Warm and Wonderful Horse
Scooter b. May 10, 1994 and arrived at the farm in September 1, 2020 as a semi-permanent member of our herd. He became permanent the next May. He stood 13hh and was so gentle to the minis. He made an excellent addition to help those who need to heal here at the farm. In November 2022, Scooter was diagnosed with Stomach Squamous Cancer and was humanly put to rest. You can see his grave from the barn, as we put a giant cairn in the field where his final resting place is. He was 28.

Quackers, Jack and Jill
