It is with the heaviest of hearts we inform you that today we lost Pumpkin to a fight with impaction colic. At 27 years old its hard to know the exact cause and everything was done to help him overcome this until the vets advice was to let him go in peace. What a life, what an amazing pony and what a great job he did for us teaching, loving and supporting so many children. Our staff are deeply saddened by the loss as are his little people. We thank his sidekick in life of 22 years chelsea for trusting us with him and today we stood side by side for his final goodbye him knowing how loved he was.

I want to publicly apologise to the kids who found out on social media platforms by someone who never had any right to post about his passing and was not involved in the situation at all. This was disrespectful, selfish and hurt many people. What a horrible thing to find out in an up supported way, we hadn't had the opportunity to even finish telling staff who worked with him every day yet. From the bottom of my heart I am sorry to those kids and families.

If you have photos you would like to share we will be doing a reel for Pumpkin in the coming days when we have had time to process so please send them in as soon as possible to be include.

Team Ryans Ranch

Rest in peace old mate you will be missed

Hi all what a crazy time we've had in the past few weeks. Returned from holidays to set off again to help my beautiful neicie and sister and now im back too two horses one with a big cut leg and the other who seen he was getting attention so thought she would try a smaller size cut (thank god she went little) .

Anyway I am back on board and catching up slowly on all I need to but please be patient with me. At the same time as catching up on things its rebooking time for term 4, time to open booking for our amazing holiday programs and hopefully time to welcome some new people off the waiting list next term. I will get to all the enquires over the next few days I promise.
I cant do this post though without giving a shout out to Callie, Ben and Renee who looked after my boy Aj so well while I was on my way back. The team at Golden Plains vet were amazing as they always are and we appreciate them so much. Callie also baby sat Hazel while i was gone, i think Hazel is sorry im back hahhaha i cant thank everyone enough i truly appreciate the efforts you went too. Heres to the 2nd half of term 3 being a bit more chill and an amazing term 4 to end the year. Happy riding and stay safe.
