Ozzie
Name: Ozzie
Breed: Connemara
Description:
Born in 2013, Ozzie is a bright, outgoing gelding with a gorgeous buckskin coat and a strong, solid build. He has a confident presence and an eye-catching look that makes him stand out in the barn.
Personality:
Ozzie is incredibly social and loves making friends in the paddocks—especially if grass is involved! He thrives in more advanced lessons where he gets to jump and stay mentally engaged, but he has also proven himself to be a steady and reliable partner in our TRP program. Ozzie truly enjoys when his rider is fully present and connected during their ride, and he absolutely loves extra attention and affection.
MORE
History:
Ozzie joined us from another therapeutic barn, where he was known for his clever trick of laying down to avoid work. We like to think he was simply hinting that he was ready for more jumping and challenge!

Sparky
Breed: Appaloosa
Description: Born April 19, 1998, Sparky, aka ‘Spartacus’, is an Appaloosa gelding who came to Troop in March 2011.
Personality: Sparky is always looking for a good time. He is funny, playful, and loves making new friends (he currently is ‘besties’ with Jackson). He is appropriately named ‘Spartacus’ because, while mostly willing and good under tack, he sometimes likes to stage a revolt against his person! His favorite occupations include, supervising turn-out, and keeping an eye on the barn day kids (making sure his food arrives promptly.) Sparky is the majestic overseer of all things barn-related.
MORE
History: Sparky came to NCMT in March 2011. Sparky has been with our Barn Manager, Anne, since 2000.

Spot on Top (‘Spot’)
Breed: Welsh Cross
Description: Born in 1999, Spot is a medium-sized pinto pony mare. She stands out in a crowd with her striking brown and white patches. Her pink nose and stylish Mohawk mane also adds to her unique appearance.
Personality: Spot is our smallest but mightiest pony. The only thing that slows her down is her fear of paper. Spot loves food of all sorts, and isn’t afraid to let you know when she needs more. Spot’s chill manner makes her a great teacher for beginners!
MORE
History: Spot came to Troop in 2014 after a successful show career. She was brought to NCMT by a former Executive Director who just knew Spot would be perfect for our programs!
