Active Program Horses

	Andrew "Andy" Andrew arrived at our barn on July 9th, 2006 and quickly became a favorite of all the volunteers and staff. Andy is a Norwegian Fjord gelding, who came to us from the steep mountainsides of North Carolina. In his younger years, Andy pulled his weight as a driving horse, and looked cute doing it. He was donated to Hands and Hearts by Kim Nord.
	Kaylee "The Queen" Kaylee
	Luke "Lou" Luke is a sorrel Walking Horse gelding with a big blaze and abig heart. If asked, he would reply that the best way to get to know someone is to nibble on their sleeve and that his favorite food is lead ropes. Luke is leased to Hands and Hearts by Terrell Singletary.

	Chief "Chee-ha" Chief's a palomino Quarter Horse gelding with quite a resume. Before coming towork as a therapeutic riding horse, he spent his days charging into battle as a civil war reenactment horse. Chief's favorite time of year is hunting season, when he can relive his war-time days. He was donated to Hands and Hearts by Patty Willis.

Unable to continue in his jumping career, he looks forward to being part of the Hands and Hearts team. He is leased to Hands and Hearts by Kate Holman, who currently volunteers with the program.

Always eager to learn and please, he is looking forward to working with our riders in helping them achieve their personalized goals for riding. Reo comes to us having some training in western pleasure riding and was donated to Hands and Hearts by board president, Karen Leabo Singletary.
	Nugget "Idgit" Nugget comes to us from Northern Virginia, where he loved cross country jumping, and waiting for the sprinkler to cool him off during the hot summer days. Though the smallest of the boys, he always runs the show when out to pasture. He enjoys racing feeder Zach Jones in to breakfast every morning. We look forward to many fun adventures with Nugget.
	Tee J Time "Tee" Though her recent years were spent as a trail horse in the Tallahassee countryside, Tee J comes to Hands and Hearts with experience in both english and western disciplines. Though somewhat stubborn for her riders, Tee J has come to enjoy her job as a therapy horse at Hands and Hearts. In her first few months, she took her first riders into competition, bringing home gold with her top seated rider. We look forward to spending many more years with Tee J.

	Sham Originally a show horse in third level dressage, Sham comes to us from Charlotte, NC where he has spent the past seven years working in therapeutic riding at LifeSpan Therapeutic Riding Center.

Known most for his patient nature, is is loved by all who get to work with him in our pogram.
	Bella is a Holsteiner mare from Tallahassee Florida. She loves kids and enjoyed traveling across the Southeast to compete in equitation and children's hunter events with her two young owners.
