Meet Our Family
Our horses are more than just companions; they are gentle guides who bring warmth and understanding to every interaction. With their calm and supportive nature, they create a welcoming space where participants can feel safe, valued, and inspired.
Hi Beamer, I am the leader of IRIE Herd. I can help riders learn Western and English riding styles. I work with people of all ages from beginners to more advanced riders. I started my training when I was only 4 months old, you can say I am sort of the rider expert around here.
I love meeting new friends.
Hello, My name is Shrek. I am the newest horse here at IRIE. I am excited to be part of this pack. I am fun and love to help new riders learn. In my spare time I like to eat hay at the stables.
What's up Riders! Danny here. I was so excited to join IRIE 2 years ago, having come from dear friends in upstate New York being here is totally awesome. I am calm, sweet, and exceptionally patient. I work really good with special needs kids. I have been told I have a gentle way with everyone—especially the younger children who may be a little more excitable.
Hello, my name is Teddy! I work both Western and English and have been trained in reining. Many riders get their first taste of "big horse" riding with me after graduating from the pony stage. I love helping new riders build confidence and learn the basics through beginner groundwork and riding lessons. Whether we're learning how to lead, groom, or ride together, I enjoy helping my riders grow their skills and feel comfortable around horses. Watching someone gain confidence and achieve something they never thought possible is one of my favorite parts of being an IRIE horse.
Hello, my name is Cubbie! I am 5 years old, and I take my job at IRIE very seriously. I help keep an eye on the farm, check on the horses, and make sure Joy is never lonely. Whether I'm exploring the barn or welcoming visitors, you'll almost always find me right by her side. My favorite part of the day is making new friends and sharing smiles with everyone I meet. After all, every farm needs a little dog with a big heart!
Howdy, My name is Keon. I am IRIE's “Zen” boy. I work with our older individuals and specialize in teaching calmness and patience. Let's take 3 deep breathes together. I am loyal and love being part of this herd.
In Remembrance
Gone from our pastures but never from our hearts, these cherished horses carried more than riders — they carried love, laughter, and healing.
Their spirit lives on in every hoofbeat that echoes across our farm
and in every rider’s heart.
