POCO OSO PARDO LP (barn name ‘Pistol Pete’) -- Gelding
Born in 1983 and the first official horse of MooseVine Ranch, Pete arrived at MooseVine Ranch in 1991. He is the only one of the horses to have lived at all of the locations of the ranch including Western New York. Always the trooper, he has been transported across the country twice. He spent his early years as a Field Trial horse, chasing dogs and birds. The stories of his early life are seemingly endless and if you have the time, Denise will be more than happy to share them with you. He has made a very successful transition to the show circuit, winning numerous prestigious awards. The barn name ‘Pistol Pete’ is well deserved and is based upon the speed at which he likes to go. You have to convince him that every trail ride is not a race. His primary and most important function at the ranch is babysitting Puma, the stallion. They share a pasture quite harmoniously.

LUZ
DE LUNA JC (barn
name ‘PJ) -- Gelding
PJ
was born in 1993 and came
to MooseVine Ranch in 1997.
He is the clown prince
of the ranch, as precocious
as he can be. He always
seems to be trying to figure
out how much trouble he
can get in. He shares a
pasture with (and is bossed
around by) Dot. Although
not one who enjoys showing
very much, he is an absolute
blast to ride on any trail.
