Heritage Horses

The ‘little iron horse’, also known as the Canadian horse breed, represents our school and equine program. We chose it for its wonderful temperament, disposition and being an “easy keeper.” The breed celebrated its 350th anniversary in 2015, providing a rich history in the formation of Canada and North America.

He has an incredible personality and has the movement and disposition to go with it. Expect him to explore the back country while free-ranging, and gallop at top speeds to show off his good looks in front of the ladies.

Canadian Heritage Bloodline

 In July 2007, we heard that there was a large Canadian herd being neglected; mares with foals were emaciated and dying. It prompted investigations and further media attention. From that herd, we found Trenegade. He is a charming and enthusiastic character, who loves running through the snow at high speeds.

She is a mischievous princess who could get away with just about anything with the herd. Known to crawl under fence lines, her loveable personality gets her out of all sorts of trouble. She is the definition of "free spirited."

Sedona

Friesian Mix Bloodline

Always aware of the slightest changes in the environment, she is a very smart and loyal horse. You can expect to find her grazing next to Jo Ellen. The two of them have a unique bond, developed over months of hard work and dedication.

Kobra

Newfoundland Pony

D.O.B.  Unknown

Canadian Heritage Bloodline

Rescued during the middle of winter in 2008, he has the attitude of a stallion and heart of a fearless mare. He'd never been with any other horses before arriving at Indian Lake, so it was fascinating to see him establish his social position within the herd. He is everyone's best friend.
