Our Animal Family
We Love our Animals!
One of the most vital resources for our programs are the horses and small animals here at the ranch. These animals are here to provide fun and interesting opportunities to learn about animals of all types that can live on a ranch. Every effort is being made to make sure that these animals will provide a safe and successful experience for all…obtaining and training these quality animals will be a continuous process at teens voice USA horse ranch.
Our horses are carefully selected for the specific needs of our riders and the types of services we are offering. We have considered their health and soundness, gaits and manner of going, attitude, temperament, ground manners, previous training, use and finally, adaptability. Once the preliminary selection or acquisition of a horse is made, the trial period begins. Working with the horse during this period allows time to determine whether he will fit into our program. The following horses have been accepted into our program and are undergoing continuous specialized training for our ranch needs.
At Teens Voice USA Horse Ranch all of our horses are carefully selected to become part of our program. All of our trail horses are gentile enough for first-timers. Our school mounts are suited for riders of all levels, as horse has a different lesson to teach our students. Every ride offers an opportunity to connect with and gain appreciation for our majestic horses. Come meet our herd!

Sky
She is strong horse who works well with riders of most sizes. Sky is sweet and sensitive and extremely social. She keeps track of all of the other horses in the barn as well as all of the people coming and going.
Ozark the great
He is the tallest of all the herd, so he is a great option for our adult riders who need a lot of physical support, and his extensive show experience makes him a skilled teacher for our independent riders. He is a horse of many talents who is full of 'personality' and is a favorite of riders and volunteers alike.
Mr. Man (RIP)
Loves to carry children without being intimidating as well as adults who need support from side walkers. Mr Man likes people and is a favorite for grooming and leading for field trips, as he is kind and generous to everyone. He is always ready to greet you at his stall door for a visit. MVP.
