Burrito is a Haflinger, an Austrian pony breed known for hardiness, versatility, and intelligence. She is the youngest and most recent addition to the herd, and she works in all facets of the program. Burrito is always thinking, and she wants to know the “why” behind the things we ask of her. The questions she asks are important aspects of her relatability; we cannot force her to do anything, but instead must have a give-and-take to arrive at solutions that are safe and appropriate for both parties. A significant aspect of her care lies in providing both physical and mental stimulation to help her remain comfortable and engaged.
Burrito’s curious, affectionate nature and height make her a wonderful partner for our younger riding students and our at-risk youth participants.
