Frekals

2010-2021 was a cute Mini gelding who brought a fun new energy to our herd of horses. Frekals loved working with the kids and took to EAL like a duck to water. He was a great teacher of appropriate assertiveness and was always ready to give hugs to those who need it.

Bunny

 Bunny is a 2002 quarter horse/percheron mare – a gentle and loving soul; ready and willing to receive as many hugs, kisses and love as you can give!  She is a firm and fair teacher, who loves to see you succeed. Bunny left us early Oct 2020 to join her owner at Olds College in Alberta.

Thunder

Our 1994 Shetland pony gelding Thunder left us to become a companion horse on August 9th 2021. As a small-statured horse, Thunder fit in amazingly with the Little Oasis herd!

“I believe that horses bring out the best in us. They judge us not by how we look, what we’re wearing or how powerful or rich we are, they judge us in terms of sensitivity, consistency, and patience. They demand standards of behavior and levels of kindness that we, as humans, then strive to maintain.”
