Banks

Banks was unable to keep up with the bigger ponies hitched to the carousel and was, therefore, considered disposable.

Meet Banks

When he arrived at our ranch, he looked like a very sad, downtrodden little pony. His sides were chewed up and in numerous cases, barren of hair as a result of the bigger ponies biting and kicking him. He was very underweight and his feet were sore and overgrown. He had drainage coming out of both eyes and was filthy. His neck had lost all of its muscle and is now and will forever be, in a fallen over state.

Banks was treated by our equine veterinarian right away and was quarantined for a period of 21 days until it was determined he could safely live in close quarters within the barn and we did not have to worry about any spread of disease or infection. 

Banks has a tremendous following of fans as he came into our barn as an underdog and yet, he has the sweet temperament and disposition, along with his small stature, to become a trained therapy horse. We began working with Banks on this project in the spring of 2018. He effortlessly passed his training and became certified for therapy through the American Miniature TherapyHorse Association. Soon Banks took on a new job in life an that was to stand patiently while senior citizens or young school children, would pet him, sing to him or groom him, during visits.
