Sinatra or "Sin" for short is owned by Kim Markham and was a gift from one of her students and came to the Rock in summer of 2022. Sin's birthday is December 2, 2011. He is a 15.2h appaloosa and his color is called a flea-bitten grey.
What we know about Sin's past is he was used as a trail horse by his original owner. Before coming to the rock he was used as a pleasure horse around the farm and made his young owner laugh at his silly playfulness including eating cucumbers and posing for selfies.
Since coming to the Rock, he had to adjust to the new routine, however when we hosted Camp Courage, he stepped up and seemed to enjoy being a part of having kids on his back that have never been on a horse before. He learned fast with his new training and routine of how to be ridden in an arena opposed to a trail. He is currently learning the "dressage" discipline while helping young students become better riders, and participating in the veterans program.
He gets a bit anxious if he cant see his best pals, but settles fast when he knows he has work to do. His best pals are Jarboe and Dixie but is known to hang out with Blue from time to time.
He is currently learning how to be a better arena saddle horse and cooperate with his pals and have discipline during the veterans drill team work. He also enjoys jumping at liberty during ground work and may have potential with jumping in his future.
Sin is used for all veteran programs, a lesson and trail horse.
Our Mission is to engage and develop the relationship between humans and the therapeutic energy of a horse to strengthen the physical, emotional, and mental well-being of ones life.
