Molly arrived late Jan 2023. She is dark and mysterious. Her eyes are kind and her spirit is gentle. We know very little about Molly's History. She arrived with the name "Big Momma". Many assume she was a brood mare, and that would make a lot of sense, considering her name.

Ponies and Miniatures

Apple

Apple is a white pony who arrived shortly after Spirit. Apple was terribly abused and pregnant when she arrived. The foal had to be taken from her as she was bred to a much larger horse that would have been too large to deliver. Apple's best friend Spirit assisted her in being social and in trusting people again. Unfortunately Spirit crossed The Rainbow Bridge June 2024. Apple is lost and needs more attention today. More than ever.
