Donating is one of the best things you can do.

When you donate, you’re not just giving a deserving show horse a forever home. You’re also reducing the chances that your best friend falls into the wrong hands and provide them with the semi- retirement they earned.

Meet Our Donated Horses

    Hank

    Donated to us after a lease so he could live out his golden years as the show horse legend he is. Out of Olympic stallion Abdullah and previously ridden by Daniel Bluman, Hank had an impressive career in the jumper and derby rings before joining our program to safely pack around kids and adults learning to canter. Now 27 and semi-retired, he’s enjoying the slower pace he’s more than earned. Once a superstar, always a good boy

    Casanova

    Caz has a long and successful history as BIG (18.1h) equitation horse. He was developed by our former assistant trainer, and after years in the show ring, Caz made it clear he was ready for a quieter pace. We brought him into a lower-pressure, more horse-centered program, where he has truly thrived. While he’s still a saint at shows, he’s happiest with a lighter workload and a job that prioritizes his well-being over constant competition.

    Joey

    Everyone knows Joey. When his young rider moved on from riding, his family’s only request was that he find the very best home—and we were lucky enough that they chose us. He is truly one of the kindest, safest horses in our barn. Kids adore him for his smooth gaits, perfect manners, and how easy he is to navigate around the arena.

    Joey is happiest living the low-level life, collecting treats, and making his signature silly faces. Simply put, he’s the MVP of Atlanta Equestrian.

    Anderson

    Everyone knows Andy as the quirky one. With what feels like a 40-page USEF record, he’s truly done it all—from the Large Junior Hunters to the Big Eq. After a long and successful show career, Andy has officially retired from the horse show life and now prefers spending his days basking in the sun in the pasture. Now 27 and part of our semi-retirement program, he still enjoys his routine, attention, and being doted on by his people. He may be set in his ways, but he’s an absolute sweetheart and a barn favorite through and through.

    Whiskey

    Whiskey is an ex–racehorse who came to us when his young rider moved on to another sport. His family’s priority was finding him a long-term home with people who would love him for exactly who he is—ugly faces and all.

    Now fully settled into his second career, Whiskey has embraced life in the show program and thrives on routine. A consistent long-stirrup champion, he proves that warhorses can make the very best teachers and partners.

    Havana

    Havana is our gentle giant. He was donated by a loving client who fell in love with him and wanted to ensure he would never end up in the wrong situation when his previous owners needed to sell quickly after their child moved on from the sport.

    Since joining us, Havana has been cherished by one of our adult amateurs, and he will always have a permanent home here. Having competed internationally, he is every bit the true show horse—one who appreciates the pampered life, comfortable conditions, and a little fair-weather luxury.
