Dixie and Shoshoni are best friends who wanted to be featured together!

Here’s a Special Note from Dixie and Shoshoni (the Wonder Pony)

Hi! We are Dixie and Shoshoni, the ranch’s resident grandma and grandpa of the herd. We have been in love for many years. Dixie prefers to go on slow rides with 6 year olds so she can protect them and show them the trails and beautiful scenery. Shoshoni (the wonder pony) still has a bit of pep in his step and is known to have one of the fastest trots in the whole herd!

From the Horse's Mouth

Natalie taught us how to ride horses; her instruction was clear, gentle, and kind. She taught us the similarities and differences between English and Western riding.

Natalie also helped us on the Feed Wagon ride, which was particularly special for us, because we got to feed horses, watch them eat, and watch them follow the feed wagon. Many thanks to Natalie for helping make this part of our stay magical.
