Meet The Herd
Cookies n' Cream
Owned by The Behm Family
Years Active: 2013 - Present
Cookies is our most experienced therapy horse! Cookies is owner Taneal's first horse and they are a dream team. She provides consistent, regulating movement for riders and her therapeutic mindset is always evident during sessions.
Cooper
Donated by The Nelson Family
Years Active: 2019 - Present
A former barrel-racing horse, Cooper is enjoying life in the slow lane at Iron Horse - literally! He has one of our slowest gaits and is great for regulating our sesnory seeking kiddos. He loves fidgeting with therapy toys in his mouth when he gets a chance!
Cocoa Puff
Owned by The Haun Family
Years Active: 2020 - Present
Cocoa Puff is nothing short of a joy to work with in sessions. He has dynamic movements and is tolerant of therapists and kids being up close & personal with him. He's been nominated for Best Hair on the farm, so keep an eye out for that blonde puff coming your way!
Bob
Donated by The Pickett Family
Years Active: 2021 - Present
His government name is Robert, but he goes by Bob, Bobby, Bobert...the list goes on. Not used for riding, Bob has claimed the title of Protector of The Farm due to him always braying out updates to the team so everyone knows what's happening. He's used frequently in farm therapy but is always looking to make new friends!
Ilias
Owned by The Dawson Family
Years Active: 2022 - Present
The baby of the farm, Ilias is a spunky gelding with lots to offer! He loves playing with friends, offering an even pace for riders, and is always interested in trying new games. He was recently purchased by our therapist Lindsey & her partner - they feel lucky to love on such a sweet guy!
Ritchie
Owned by The Shaver Family
Years Active: 2024 - Present
One of our tallest horses, Ritchie is the newest member in our herd! This absolute love bug is so kind and sweet, he is a gentle giant. He loves spending time with his owner's sn who is a patient at the farm!
Tevo
Owned by Iron Horse Therapeutic Farm
Years Active: 2021 - Present
One of our younger horses, Tevo is always ready to play with his human friends! He has an excellent gait to challenge postural support, but needs some encouragement to get pep in his step some days - maybe an extra sugar cube in his grain bucket could help!
Kentucky
Owned by The Anderson Family
Years Active: 2022 - Present
He's blonde, he's beautiful, he's the heart throb of the farm. Owned by one of our adult riders, Kentucky is always providing the just right challenge to everyone who works with him! His favorite time of the week, however, is getting a treat from his mom after her ride.
Captain
Owned by The Willis Family
Years Active: 2022 - Present
Captain is a sweetheart mustang with an even walk and tolerates different rider positions well. His laid-back temper makes him an ideal member of our team. His easygoing attitude is most evident when he is laying in the sun for a midday nap!

Dancer
Owned by The Luque Family
Years Active: 2024 - Present
A member of our herd in 2022, Dancer has rejoined the team and is settling into her old stomping grounds! She has huge movement through her hips and is a great challenge for riders. She loves keeping up with what the rest of the herd is doing!
Thank you to our past therapy horses!
Tika

Back from maternity leave, Tika is gearing up to be used in equine movements sessions! Her baby, Stucky, is her shadow and Tika is a great mama. She does an excellent job of showing Stucky how to be a therapy horse!
