Hi there! I’m Peepers, and I have a little story to share about my life. You see, I’m an Arabian cross, and let me tell you, my journey has been quite the adventure!

​

Not too long ago, I was a nervous and skinny little horse, stuck in a scary place... But then, a really kind lady found me. She knew who I was from a past life and rescued me not once, but twice! And after she took care of me, she made sure I went to a place where I’d be loved and never end up in the kill pen again. So she donated me to Rise & Ride Ranch!

​

When I finally arrived at the ranch, I was a little shy and jumpy at first, I didn’t know who to trust.. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't back in that scary place! But those nice humans were patient with me. Their chiropractor figured out that I had an old head trauma from a hard hit to the face... ouch! My jumpiness might also explain how my back and bum muscles got so tight too. It made me even more unsure for a while, but they were all so sweet and caring. Ear circles, head massages and all the extras to help me with headaches! 

​

As the days turned into weeks, something magical happened. With all their yummy food and gentle hands, I started to feel better! I was blooming like a flower! And then came the best part..I got to go into the training arena! Oh my hoofbeats, I was having so much fun! They thought they were teaching me, but really, I was teaching them! I learned new tricks that had them giggling and I loved every moment of it! 

​

When I’m not busy being a superstar in the arena, I’m living my best life in the pasture. I’m such a cuddler! I’ll rub against you like a big fuzzy cat, just begging for all the pets and scratches. It feels so good to be loved! 

​

Every day, I’m grateful for my home and my humans. They’re working hard to help me get stronger and healthier, and I can’t wait to see what comes next on this wonderful journey. I may have started out scared and alone, but now I’m a happy horse full of love and joy, just waiting to share it with everyone I meet!
