Meet the Herd

Steady partners. Individual personalities.

Each horse is carefully selected for temperament, soundness, and the ability to connect with riders.

Star

Star

Pretty Peppy Star

Quarter Horse · Cutting Horse · Born April 23, 2002

Donated by Rocking Star Ranch

Moon blindness has limited Star’s vision, but never her spirit. This patient lesson horse inspires riders with similar challenges—and keeps us humble by opening cattle-panel gates with her chest. Apparently, “latched” is just a suggestion.

Quarter Horse · Cutting Horse · Born March 10, 2000

Donated by Randall S. Murray

Dolly joined us at 21, bringing calm, patience, and quiet leadership to the herd. At 25, she still greets athletes and volunteers with the same unbeatable motto: “Game ON!”

Ironee

Ironee

Donated by Pine Cove

Friendly, confident, reliable, and full of personality, Ironee came to us when her time at Pine Cove ended, ready for a new opportunity to keep serving people. She loves meeting new riders and making them feel welcome from the very first ride—a reminder that every ending can become the beginning of something wonderful.

Ima San Chick

Quarter Horse · Born March 26, 1999

Donated by Jana Kramer

Chick first shared her four feet with Dream Catcher Stables athletes in 2018, then returned from 2023–2025. Beloved by longtime volunteer Jana, she spent years greeting neighborhood children for pets and rides. After hard times changed their lives in 2020, Dream Catcher Stables helped make a new chapter possible. Now Chick will remain with the herd for life—still happiest when sharing her gentle spirit with kids.

Quarter Horse · Cutting Horse · Born February 5, 2000

Donated by Rocking Star Ranch

Born a twin, Lil Bit may be small, but her personality is full-size. She has carried tiny beginners, supported therapeutic riders, and still enjoys bareback rides with Blake, her first rider. At 25, she remains people-loving—with just a little extra sass.

Quarter Horse · Cutting Horse · Born February 22, 2007

Stormy

Stormy

Quarter Horse · Trail Horse · Born January 1, 2006

A veteran of the Salt Grass Trail, Stormy brings confidence, experience, and plenty of pep to riders of every level. She has taught the herd a few tricks, too—and gladly accepts face rubs as payment.

Lexie

Lexie

Paso Fino/Tennessee Walker Cross · Trail Horse · Born 2008

Lexie found her forever home with a larger herd, open pasture, and plenty of trails. Riders love her smooth gaits, and her Paso genes make sure every outing includes a little extra glide.

In Loving Memory

Charlie

Charlie Has Heart

Thoroughbred · Race, Eventing, Dressage · Born April 21, 2012

Donated by Julie Norman Shamburger

Tall, gentle, and marked by a heart-shaped star, Charlie traded a high-pressure career for a life of serving athletes. Laid to rest on September 21, 2026, he is remembered with deep gratitude for every rider he carried and every life he touched. Charlie Has Heart was more than his name—it was who he was.

Among those whose lives Charlie touched is Debra, pictured here—a long-time friend of DCS. Together with her husband, Kep, she shared countless hours at Charlie’s side, and the bond they formed with him is a testament to the warmth he gave so freely.
