Cisco is a blind white appaloosa; he also has an eye defect called microphthalmia. He came from a loving home that raised him from a young’un; he arrived here after his long-time owner passed away. Cisco’s very comfortable with his blindness, however he is so because he has a seeing-eye buddy, Shadow. Shadow accepts his role gladly, and even seems to enjoy it. They make quite a pair: Cisco is pure white, and Shadow is as dark as, well, you know… a shadow!

Country is a very easy-going and friendly horse. He came to us after his owner died unexpectedly. He has significant vision loss, but is pretty comfortable getting around if the terrain and boundaries are not extreme. Due to his very poor vision and his age, he is a permanent resident here at OHR.

Forest came to the rescue, along with Allah, after his owner developed significant medical issues that left her unable to care for them. He had been a working farm horse and a Sheriff’s posse horse in past years. Forest is a sweet boy; non-confrontational and the bottom of the pecking order. When put with mares he’s confident but not overbearing.

Honey Bun is a sweet appaloosa miniature mare. She came to the rescue after her owner was physically unable to care for her. She is fully blind and has adapted comfortably to her pasture, thanks to tireless and patient work from key volunteers. She does lead well and is trusting if she has someone with her. She is housed with Nana Rose - a mustang mare - and does well with her, but does not like to be alone. Honey Bun is a very sweet little mini and loves peppermint treats.

Kodak is an smart, affectionate, and easy-going gelding that came to the rescue with another QH after their owner could no longer care for them. Despite his age, Kodak is sound and has a lot of life left. Out of respect for his age, however, he is no longer considered rideable. He would make a wonderful and loving companion or pasture pet.

Sage is a registered Quarter Horse mare who had a very caring owner for 11 years. The owner surrendered her to us because Sage’s companion horse died, and because of the owner’s changing circumstances. Since her arrival, Sage has settled with a couple of our other mares. She tends to be the dominant mare in the group. Sage can be a bit anxious, and would need a trainer and patient rider if she were to be ridden. (She was last ridden about a dozen years ago.)

Sahara was inherited by a woman with a very young daughter, and was surrendered to us because the owner was concerned about the daughter’s safety. That’s because Sahara has narcolepsy. Though we have not yet witnessed an episode since she has been at the rescue, we’ve been told that it can be triggered by as simple an event as tightening a girth on her. Narcolepsy is triggered in horses by pleasurable feelings. Who knew!?!? Sahara has knobby knees, and because of that can only be ridden by a child. She is in generally very good health.

Sequoia arrived at the rescue because her owner was no longer able to care for her. Sequoia is an exceptional horse. She has taken care of motherless foals, and she is now the guide horse for our blind mini, Honeybun. We consider her a service horse, and therefore will never be up for adoption. She’s enjoying her retirement, and is a sassy old lady.

Shadow came to us along with Cisco from a loving home; he arrived here after his long-time owner passed away. He craves human attention, though he can be a little forward in requesting it. He does a wonderful job as the sighted guide horse for his blind buddy and pasture mate Cisco.

Xena is a mustang mare who had been a kids’ riding horse. However, when the kids grew up her owners just let her fend for herself on their forested acreage for about TWENTY YEARS. About a year before we got her, the neighbors discovered this bad situation and lovingly nursed an extremely emaciated Xena back to health. However, they already had several horses of their own and could not keep her permanently. We were therefore happy to welcome Xena into the OHR family.
