BRONKEN CREEK

Frank had done everything. He hadn't lost much of his spunk either. He frequently galloped up for his breakfast and caused a big ruckus when things didn't go his way.

Silver had been there and done that ... several times over! He was healthy, personable, handsome and he drew the lucky straw when his dad rescued him years ago. We were blessed to have Silver in our pastures!

Donny was a very accomplished Driving mare - both in the show ring and out having fun for 2 generations of owners in MinneSota! She pistoned out a ground-covering and showy trot daily in her retirement and drew all the eyes to her. We loved her personality - she had many facial expressions, was a great problem-solver and we trusted her unconditionally. She was a lovely mare and we were lucky to have her here.

Scooter is a handsome and intelligent guy who seems half his age! We were happy to have Scooter relaxing and enjoying life at our facility!

Casey was right there saying hello when we walked in the barn. He came to us to retire together with his buddy Chips! We are happy knowing we provided him a great retirement with a great companion, caring attention and lots of food!

Cooper was smart and sensible with perfect manners. He was happy just relaxing at pasture :)

Leo holds a special spot in our hearts. He was Marci's pasturemate and our first boarded retiree. Leo (or 'Nudge', as we often called him - for reasons you can deduce) was an upper level dressage horse in his day and it was obvious from the moment you first saw him. He was polite and you could not ignore his presence - what a personality! Leo left us to be near his 'Mom' when she moved elsewhere in Wisconsin - always a happy reason for leaving!

She was trained and shown successfully through second level dressage, schooling third. She was one of the sweetest horses you will ever meet - kind and caring to humans and other horses. She's our 'Princess Marcella'. Marci moved when Nan moved - from Minnesota to New York to Michigan and finally to Wisconsin.

William still looked like a teenager, which is a compliment to the great care his owner has provided him through the years. He earned that top-level care, being a very accomplished jumper and a super-cool horse to boot.

Cambridge competed as a hunter jumper in Massachusets before his retirement. He was originally from Germany, and spent some time in the Midwest as a youngster. Cambridge was a big guy - handsome and sweet and accommodating to the shorter humans that he encountered :) We discovered his itchy spots and made sure he had plenty of shavings for his roll every evening when he came back into his stall.

Nicky came to us from Minnesota, where his owner met him and promoted him to a much improved life. Nicky was a great guy - greeting us politely (but not quietly!) for his meals and generally enjoying life.

Andy was a successful hunter jumper in Massachusets in his younger days. He still shows the style and movement he had in the show ring - with the added benefit of loving to roll where he will get the most dirt coverage now that he is retired! Andy has perfect manners and loves being groomed, turnout time and eating.

Benjamin spent his early career in the jumper ring in Mexico and when his current owner purchased him in Texas and changed his name he competed in the level 3's and 4's, taking very good care of her and jumping anything that was in front of him. His heart was as big as he is but he ironically could be afraid of his own shadow which can cause him to jump into your pocket. He never knew he wouldn't fit. Benjamin came to us from Illinois and enjoyed the retired life with us for over a decade.

Nan's 'Pasture Ornament' companions.

Georgia is a delicate girl with a sweet disposition and excellent manners. She and her Mom have a wonderful bond, which is great to see. Georgia had a life in harness racing, then polo before getting her lucky break meeting her current owner. Miss Georgia lived with us for several months while her owner moved to a new area and found a perfect place for Georgia to live in Indiana. We look forward to updates on how they are doing in their new home.

Homer was super SWEET and super SMART! He instantly became Andy's best friend and was a wonderful horse to be around. He will be missed.

Fred is a charmer. He's easy to work with, friendly and has alot of personality! He is now living closer to his owner - always a good thing :)

Oliver was a handsome and intelligent guy. He was a very successful hunter jumper in Illinois in his prime. Oliver enjoys the comforts of retired life - his current favorites were rolling, grazing, weekly grooming (don't forget extra time rubbing his forehead) and apple slices. He was one we counted on for not just a greeting, but a conversation as we bring hay out.

Bear Paw has a huge presence, which is backed by him being a super-sweet and well-mannered guy. We enjoyed having him on our farm and were equally happy when he moved to be close to his Mom!

Ramazotti joined us from Massachusets, introducing himselfl as he walked off the trailer and fitting in instantly. He is handsome, affectionate and quite the talker!

Libby was a big, beautiful mare with presence. I would have loved to see her in the show ring - she has that extra something! She enjoyed her days relaxing with her friend :)

Was one of the smartest and well mannered we have known. It was our honor to adopt Chips and provide him with a relaxing retirement.

Donovan is a big, handsome, well-mannered guy who exudes sweetness :) He's wonderful to be around and we were happy to know him! Donovan moved to be very close to his Mom.

Ty was a successful eventer in his time, working with some well respected professionals! Now, he's enjoying life with a friend - eating, rolling and making his own plans for the day ☺

Sunny not only turned heads with his good looks (I don't think I need to say more than 'Bay Medicine Hat Paint'...); he was also affectionate and had wonderful manners. We thoroughly enjoyed visits from his parents every few months and will miss them.

Tucson is a big, easy-going, good looking guy. He has wonderful manners and a "been there, done that" attitude. He left to be closer to his Mom :)

Bella was a beautiful mare, but "sweet and cute" will probably always be the top way to describe her :) She was wonderful to work with and be around. We are very lucky she came to our facility!

Indy is a handsome and sweet guy with parents who [understandably] love him to pieces.

We knew Finey as a foal, his Owner is a wonderful friend of ours! He has grown into a handsome, BIG guy with a loving personality and showstopping trot. He is loving retirement and are happy that Finey moved back home with his mom!

Flash was mischevious in a good way :) He was bold and personable and popular with humans and his pasturemates.

There's nothing like a pony that reminds you of your childhood. Snickers was everything you could ask for!

Qiwi and Ida (Grandmother & Granddaughter) are fellow Wisconsin horses who lived with us temporarily. They are beautiful, healthy, wonderfully trained mares with personalities plus! We loved having them with us.

We cared for Pabby in her mid-late pregnancy. She is a stunning mare, bred to an amazing stallion - and she produced a healthy and beautiful filly!

You couldn't find a sweeter guy in a BIG package! Robert had all the right moves and knew how to turn on the charm :)

Oofta is a great, Midwestern guy! He's sensible and quiet and easy to work with -- but he's also easy on the eyes! He moved to a facility where his Mom would be riding him :)

Brando was handsome, smart and sensible. He was a pleasure to work with - we were very lucky to have him at our facility. He even posed for photos! :)

Ruby lived with us temporarily between her previous and new homes in Wisconsin. She is a young, sweet, pretty draft girl who is very inquisitive and, of course, loves any food she is offered.

Ripley is a big, affectionate girl who takes everything in stride. She loves life and we adored her.

These 2 are quite the duo. They are good boys who play hard! They are lucky to have a wonderful mom who turned their lives in the right direction ♥

Rey stayed with us temporarily until he went back to work. His owner is a fantastic trainer who has created a wonderful horse to work with.

What an exceptional guy! He is extremely personable, easy-going, smart and healthy. We are honored to care for Koby!
