Danny came to Rockbrook and Free Rein Center in the late 80’s with Lacey, Annie, and Buddy after the breeding facility where they were living burned down. He was only about 2 years old then, but has acquired a magnificent love for children and loves his job as a lesson horse. Since then, he has taught many camp kids and a few barn staff members lessons that they will always carry with them. Now he takes life a little slower and uses his talents to teach our Free Rein students and some volunteers how to ride. He is a great confidence builder for people who need a little help getting their riding careers going or a great first horse for people who have never ridden before. As long as people are willing to learn, anyone can learn something from Danny. He is the wise old man of our herd and loves passing on his knowledge to everyone he meets.
