Our Most Valued Employees:  Dixie, Lady & Duke
Duke:
Grey Percheron Gelding
17.1 hands high
23 years old
Likes:  Baths with a pressure washer, sleeping on his side in the pasture, a good roll in any mud he can find, candy canes, apples, and playing halter tag with his friends. Duke is also known to occasionally let himself (and the other horses) out of the pasture and sample the neighbor's trees and hay fields.

Dislikes: 
Litter and late nights.

Quirks: 
Duke is quite demanding when it comes to breakfast time.  If his breakfast isn't served by 6:00 am, he will bang on the side of the barn or rattle the gate until he wakes someone up to feed him!
Dixie:
Grey Percheron Mare
16.1 hands high
13 years old
Likes:  Duke, good roll in the grass, most food & peppermints in crinkly wrappers, apples and lots and lots of brushing and attention.

Dislikes: 
Baths of any kind (especially having her face washed), slippery manhole covers and being separated from Duke.

Quirks: 
Dixie has been known to talk to herself quietly while giving rides. We can only assume that she's thinking of Duke & pondering whether or not he's around the next corner. Dixie also likes to stick her tongue out when stopping at red lights (don't take it personally).
Lady:
Black Percheron Mare with a small white star
17.2 hands high
12 years old
Likes:  Hanging out with her friends in the pasture, lots of attention & brushing, and fruity treats!  Lady also loves having her stall next to Duke's.

Dislikes
:  Round bale (hay) feeders, and her nights off - when her friends get to go to work and she doesn't.

Quirks: 
Lady loves to make right turns. If given her free choice, she'll happily take you clockwise all night long!  Otherwise, Lady is actually a very serious mare and isn’t as goofy as her stable mates!
