Our Past Horses

Since the Anthony family purchased the farm in 2005, they have rescued and rehabbed many horses in need. They have all gone on to permanent homes, and many have become successful show horses. Below are a few of our former horses, click on their photos for more information.

2005 project Horses

  Update: Currently competing in the Low Adult jumpers at "A" shows in Michigan with her new owners.
In 2005, the farm rescued these two lovely chestnut TBs from slaughter. Sully, now known as "Monsters Inc", was sold in early 2006 and has gone on to have a very successful eventing career, currently competing with his new owner at training level.

He is the hunter extraordinaire, and has been shown by both children and adults in the 2'6"-3' hunter divisions. Abner finished as Reserve Champion in the Adult Amateur in 2010. He has since been sold to Becca Laskey, who plans on using him for a low level hunter horse.
2010 Project/Rescue Horse- redemption song, "Chopper"

- "Chopper", August 2011
Princeton Ridge Farms rescued "Chopper" in December 2010 from the estate of a local individual. He is a 22 y/o Wielkopolski (Polish WB) with Hanoverian bloodlines. He has come very far in his rehabilitation and will not be sold as a riding horse, due to the trauma of his former life.
**UPDATE** Chopper is now owned by a lovely family in Troy, OH. He is a pasture mate to a cute little pony named Dakota, and he's enjoying his new spoiled life.

Beer has competed successfully in dressage, eventing, and hunter/jumpers, through the 3'3" levels with numerous year end high point awards, championships and other honors. He is truly a once in a lifetime horse, albeit a rather difficult ride. He is known as the "barn clown", and has quite a personality. He will remain at Princeton Ridge indefinitely, and continue being spoiled for the rest of his life.
