Trail HorsesBelle
This is Belle our 1998 16 hand Belgian Mare. Belle came to us in an interesting way, she was going to be sent to slaughter, but the ASPCA noticed that she was being transported in an illegal manner, so she was seized. One of the officers knew of Mike, and that is how she came to The Red Buffalo Ranch. Although Belle is a small giant, she is gentle and docile. We use her for our larger riders that she carries with no complaint.
Curly
This is Curly, she is a 1983 chestnut Arabian mare. She is on the smaller side, and is a favorite with the kids because of it. Curly was born at RBR, and then sold to a friend of Mike's. Eventually she returned to RBR, and she has made quite an impression on all of our hearts. After she returned to us, she had an accident in the field which left us with an extremely difficult decision, either remove her right eye or put her to sleep. We chose to let her live, and we are all very glad because she has become a valuable asset to RBR. Curly can handle riders of any size or experience level. She has a big heart, and will be happy to let you in.

Cincinnati
Cincinnati is a beautiful full blooded chestnut Egyptian Arabian. He was one of the finest endurance horses in the world. To his credit he has won the most prestigious old Dominion 100 mile race in 2005. As luck would have it Cincinnati was stricken with Lyme disease and as a result he is virtually blind. In spite of that he is still used as one of our lead horses. He is a spectacular horse.
Blackjack
Blackjack is a dark bay Arabian in his late teens. Blackjack is easily the favorite of our more experienced campers. Blackjack can be ridden by anyone, but he has a little bit of spunk when it comes to going fast, and he LOVES to jump. Our experienced campers love riding Blackjack because he is easy to handle but at the same time, he can keep up with their ability. Blackjack is a classic Arabian conformation. He has a dish face with soft eyes, and his tail is always held up high. His riding ability and his good looks are what make Blackjack another wonderful horse here at RBR.
