Meet the ASSISTANTS

Sheena

A Texas Thoroughbred born in 2005, she began racing in 2007.

After a racing career in which her top finish was 2nd, the owners sent her to auction in 2015 where she was purchased by the Thomas Foundation Horse Rescue in Pilot Point, Texas.

After her adoption in 2017, Jane sent some of her mane hair to the Jockey Club to confirm her date of birth for veterinary purposes and discovered that she is the great-great-granddaughter of the racehorse Secretariat and the granddaughter of Storm Cat, another very successful racehorse, and was originally named Kitty Mambo.

Sheena is bold, aware, high-energy, and loves the companionship of the herd, especially her best friend, Clover.

Clover

A Missouri Foxtrotter born in Texas in 2008. By 2015, Clover moved to the Thomas Foundation Horse Rescue.

In 2017, Clover was adopted by Jane, finding her new home in Texas.

Clover and Sheena created a bond while spending time at the Thomas Foundation Horse Rescue before Jane adopted Clover and her new buddy. The two continue to have a close and strong bond.

Clover is calm, smooth, gentle, solid, dependable and carries the impressive features of soulful eyes and a perfect tail.


Ed

Born in 2012, Ed worked as a guard donkey for a flock of sheep along with his sister Lucy, another white donkey.

In early 2017, Ed and Lucy were sold in an auction when their owner stopped keeping sheep. By early March of 2017, Ed and Lucy moved to Pilot Point Thomas Foundation. Sadly, Lucy passed the first evening.

Ed was distraught after the death of his companion, but within a few weeks, some horses in the herd “adopted” him at the rescue.

By April 2017, Ed was adopted by Jane and joined the rest of the herd. Ed started out as very shy, but has really learned to love the companionship of the herd and humans and knows when to give comfort and support or a (large) listening ear. He and Little Blue have a special bond and share a stall.

little blue

Born in 2015, Little Blue is an Appendix quarter horse, meaning she is half quarter horse and half Thoroughbred. She was bred to be a polo pony, but the sport of polo was not for Little Blue.

She joined the herd in November, 2018.

She is curious, playful, sweet and loving. She even likes to give kisses (think dog kisses).


boudro

Boudro was born in 2005 in Oklahoma. He later found his way to Sandbrook Ranch in Texas where he worked as a respected cutting horse.

In June, 2018, Jane purchased him to add to her herd.

Boudro has calm, strong energy and is also a bit of a clown. He acts as a mentor to Moro and loves any and all human attention.


MORO

Moro is the youngest of the herd, born in 2016. We believe he is a quarter horse mixed with Arabian, but his ancestry is uncertain.

He was purchased in June of 2019 and is a fun loving, high energy, happy to please member of the herd who also loves working with clients. He and Ed share a special bond as Ed will put up with his youthful, playful energy.
