 Sup? I'm Wally. The first thing people notice about me is my amazing coloring and gorgeous eyes. I am a cremello which is a double dilution gene of chestnut. My people need to be careful about providing shade and sunscreen, but my awesome temperament makes it worth it. I enjoy hippotherapy, adaptive riding, and groundwork, a triple threat. I do not enjoy other horses unless we can all agree I should be in charge. 


Big thanks to Walmart stores 3751, 4451, 3833, 2778, 2671, 4430, and 1512 for providing the grants to purchase Wally- and where he gets his name!

What's crack-a-lackin'? I'm Splash, and I specialized in trail riding before coming here. I am one of the youngest members of the herd. Even though I am young, I am super chill. The name Splash comes from the "splashes" of white all over my body. I am "gaited," which means my step patterns are different from those of regular horses. There's more front-to-back movement for the rider at a walk, and my trot is the smoothest thing you'll ever see. 


Thank you, March Madness 2024 donors, for funding the purchase of Splash on April 20, 2024

 Hello, it's wonderful to meet you, I'm Bandit! I have ridden trails, been in parades, had actors ride me, and even had them shoot off me. My friend Wally told me about this great place to work and my owners thought it would be an awesome place for me as well. I am so happy to be here, I love getting petted and the obstacles here are super fun. I have a special affinity for water, I like to dunk my whole head in the water trough and swish it around! My sponsor, Roseann, named me with the help of one of our non-verbal kids. The session volunteers were naming characters from Bluey to come up with ideas for my new name. When she said Bandit, he just lit up! 


A big thanks to the Donald C Brace Foundation for the grant that funded Bandit's purchase!

 Hello hello hello! I'm Bree! I come from Tucson, AZ where I was competing in barrel racing, jumping, gymkhanas, anything my people asked of me. When I started to want to slow down, they looked for the right fit, and therapy was perfect! My head is always on a swivel, so I see everything, but my body is relaxed, nothing scares me! I enjoy grooming and being ridden, anything that lets me interact with people. I have a cool freeze brand on my shoulder that catches everyone's eye. I am so happy to share hope, happiness, and healing with the kiddos! 


Bree was purchased with funding from Julie Neuman and the 2024 March Madness. Thank you!

Well Howdy! I’m Ruby!

I’m a 14-year-old pony standing proud at 13 hands tall—the smallest of the herd, but just the right size for kiddos and friends who might feel a little unsure around the bigger horses. I’ve got a gentle heart, a calm spirit, and I love helping people feel safe and confident around me.


I get along great with other horses and humans (I’m a pretty social gal), but I also know how to stand my ground. I might be small, but I’m no pushover! I’m here to bring comfort, joy, and a little bit of magic to everyone I meet.

See you at the barn!

Hi, I’m Pongo—the youngest (and if you ask me, the most handsome) member of the herd! I’m a Quarter Pony Appaloosa with a one-of-a-kind coat pattern and even more unique multi-colored lips. 

I’ve been a reliable partner for trail riding, ranch work, and I even have driving experience—yep, I know how to pull a cart and look good doing it! 


I’ve got the heart of a cowboy and the style of a show pony. Now, I love to bring a calm, willing attitude and a touch of flash to every kiddo I meet and session I help with. 


Pongo was purchased with funding from the Brace Foundation. Thank you!

Hi there! We’re Mabel and Lucy. We’re a small breed of pig (only ~200 lbs!) with a friendly and docile nature, sporting our signature hairy coats and rotund builds. You might even notice our charming wattles hanging from our jaws! We're smart, too. We know to come when we're called, sit on command, and spin for a treat! We’re excited to soak up all the pets and attention we can get. Just be warned, we WILL try to untie your shoelaces! We can’t wait to snuggle and play with you!


Julie Neuman provided the funding for Lucy and Mabel to join us. Thank you, Julie!

Hey, featherless friends! Us eight hens who call Manes and Miracles home take our job very seriously. Every morning, we’re up with the sun, scratching, clucking, and, of course, laying the freshest eggs you’ve ever seen. But we’re more than just breakfast providers—we’re entertainers, greeters, and unofficial therapy animals too!


We're a scrappy crew of silkie, We love visitors who stop by to feed us, collect eggs, or just watch our silly chicken antics.


Thanks to The Fried Group for sponsoring Winona, June, Loretta, and Kelsea! Reba, Dolly, Shania, and Laney are still looking for donors!


Bob Cason and B5C Builders hatched Reba, Dolly, and Loretta. Lindsey Pittman donated Shania, Laney, Kelsea, and Winona. Thank you!
