Chanel is one of the youngest horses in the Eagle Mount herd, and she approaches life with equal parts curiosity and confidence. She loves having a job and is quickly discovering that adaptive horsemanship is one of her favorite adventures. She’s athletic, responsive, and is always trying her best as she continues to learn. Around the barn, Chanel is always happy to stop for scratches, spend time with her herd, and convince anyone nearby that she deserves just one more handful of hay.

Lenny

Standard Issue Cat

Lenny, the barn cat of the Eagle Mount Stables, is a rugged and beloved fixture among the horses. Adopted as a kitten, he quickly established himself as a master of the barn’s nooks and crannies, where he expertly hunted mice and kept the stables free of pests. A gray tabby cat with bright, curious eyes, Lenny is known for his gentle demeanor and knack for finding the sunniest spots for his afternoon naps. Over the years, he’s become inseparable from the daily rhythm of hoofbeats and hay, a quiet sentinel in the bustling world of the barn.

Poppy can be shy but opens up with scratches! Poppy will sidestep up to you so you can scratch her favorite itchy spots! Poppy’s best friend is Pocahontas. Poppy is bravest with friends, but not so sure of everything by herself. Poppy loves to roll in the arena, and then gallop around like she is made of springs.

While Sabbath is the largest horse at Eagle Mount, he is also one of the most likely to want to crawl in your lap. This sweet doofus is a sensitive soul. He demands attention and absolutely adores his best friend, Guapo. Sabbath does play with other horses like Charlie, but Guapo is his favorite.
