Waylon is a 15 year old Quarterhorse. Waylon came to us from working as a ranch horse near Old Tucson Studios. He was diagnosed with navicular disease which is a disease in the horses hoof. Waylon has been able to heal here at Agape Acres due to our barefoot approach and allowing the horse to learn to walk on his hooves without the restriction of wearing a metal shoe. Waylon is a wonderful lesson horse and he does a great job helping kids learn how to ride.
Golden is a 20 year old Appaloosa Mule. He is 1/2 horse and 1/2 donkey. Golden is sweet and quite and is great on a trail ride. We use Golden for riders who can ride independently or who may need a leader for assistance as he does not do well with someone walking beside him.
Madeline is a 15 year old miniature donkey and she is quit the little boss out in the pasture. She does not take any guff from any of the horses, bosses them around at feeding time and is best friends with Zoey. Madeline is very particular about when and if she will allow you to pet her, it's all on her terms. She has a big personality and she is dearly loved at Agape Acres.
Coquetta (spanish for flirty) is a 20 year old Quarterhorse and came to us from a ranch in Wilcox. She was born there and has had some babies at the ranch over the years. She is bonded to Gitano (who was the stud at the ranch) who also came with her from the ranch. Coquetta is used for independent riders and provides a challenge every now and then as she is not a push button horse, she requires you to provide her with the proper ques and when you do, she is a pleasure to ride.
