White Oak Stables is home to these friendly horses and ponies.
Diamond Appeal “Erin”
Erin is a 1999 Thoroughbred mare. Not only is she a sweetheart she has loads of personality. She was bred for steeple chasing but was never raced. She enjoys carrots, peppermints, and lots of slobbery kisses. Erin lost an eye due to health problems and as a result she doesn’t jump much anymore. Erin does English or Western lessons.

How Bout Them Sox “Abbott”
Abbott is a 2005 Quarter Horse/Paint gelding. This friendly guy was bred for western pleasure competitions and has a wonderfully smooth gait, a comfy jump and is an easy horse to ride even if he can be stubborn. Abbott loves carrots, peppermints and drinking out of the hose on a hot day. He’s so smart he even knows how to unlock doors. Abbott does English or Western lessons.

Shaneighneigh “NeighNeigh”
