Many kids come out to visit the ranch for the first time surprised and overwhelmed at how big full size horses are in real life. Prima’s very gentle and patient nature makes her the perfect friend to introduce timid children to equines. Though she is too small and bouncy for riders, she is cart trained!
Prima was donated February 2019 by Karen Hefner

Lucky is a gentle sweetheart who has been helping special needs children for many years. His steady, calm demeanor makes him perfect for working in an environment so different from what horses may experience in the wild. Nothing can shake this guy and WE are the lucky ones to have him!
We are thankful to the David and Sarah Assay Family for donating Lucky to Manes and Miracles in 2018

Serving children anywhere from 3-21 years old means that sometimes we have kids that need a bigger horse to support them. Johnny is just the guy for the job! Though he was a race horse in his younger years, he is much more content to plod around our sensory track at an easy pace then to use those long legs with any bit of speed or competition!

Teddy has the sweetest demeanor; nothing fazes him! A retired barrel racer, he was ready for the slower pace of life on the Manes and Miracles Ranch. Kids love his easy going personality and he’s a great size. He’s one of our older horses and requires special care to ensure as long of a career serving children as possible. Teddy is looking for a sponsor to help cover feed and care. Could it be you?

Chance retired from the barrel racing circuit, but he still had so much love to give. Having been accustomed to the noise, excitement, and unexpected situations that arise in the rodeo, he took to the unique atmosphere of hippotherapy like a natural!
Roni Sanchez donated Chance to Manes and Miracles in 2020.

Winston is our smallest working equine and fits the bill for many children who need extra support when riding. Plus, he is just the cutest! Ponies are notorious for being feisty, but sweet Winston will do just about anything for a little love and attention.

Julian is the perfect size horse for hippotherapy: short enough to comfortably assist riders, but wide enough to make for a comfortable ride for those we serve. He has matured tremendously and is a favorite for hippotherapy or therapeutic riding.
Julian came to Manes and Miracles thanks to a generous gift from Julie Neuman in 2020.

Wether (male) / Mini Nubian and Nigerian Dwarf
Luke and his sister Leia were born at Manes and Miracles to Piper. He looks just like his dad, blue eyes and blonde hair. He is certainly the alpha of the goat herd who loves to jump on everything… and everyone! No one is allowed around him without being prepared to rub his head.
We’ve enjoyed watching Luke grow since his birth at Manes and Miracles in June of 2020.

Doe(Female) / Mini Nubian and Nigerian Dwarf
Unlike her twin brother, Leia takes after her mother in looks and calm temperament. She just got her dad’s beautiful baby blue eyes. Due to lactation complications with Piper, Leia had to be bottle fed. As a result, she is very gentle and loves humans. She is a doll to have around. Manes and Miracles guests love to watch her interact with her mom and brother.

Female / African Spurred (aka Sulcata) Tortoise
Originally believed to be a male until laying a surprise clutch of eggs, Mr. T was renamed to Miss T, which morphed to Misty. She has been doing a better job of weed control than the goats, whose job it is! Catch her quick, though, because after she’s had enough sun and teasing from the goats, she puts herself right to bed in a shelter custom built for her by Sean Irwin, OT.
Four times each month, Hayden gets to leave behind the wheels of her chair during therapy to experience the freedom of walking on Winston, her favorite pony.
Will you join the Miracle Maker Club to bring hope, happiness, and healing to Hayden and her friends?
