Yowley
10 y/o American Shorthair

Even before PCF came to be, Yowley has been a part of our family the longest. We adopted him from Lollypop Farm in Fairport, NY in 2011. He was brought in as a stray and was rehabbed at Lollypop for a shoulder injury prior to us adopting him.

Yowley enjoys spending his days basking in whatever sunlight he can find, and while he is an indoor cat he does go outside on a harness to spend some time in the fresh air.

Bug
17 y/o pinto gelding

Bug is our oldest horse here at PCF, and is the horse who started it all for us three years ago. We purchased him from Burl Creek Farm in Newark, NY where he did some children's lessons and trail rides. His previous owners before Burl Creek rescued him from a slaughter truck.

Bug has a very goofy and loving personality, he loves to spend time getting groomed or out grazing. He loves to go for long trail rides but also enjoys zooming around the arena when you ask for it!

Gus
2 y/o leopard gecko

Gus is our first reptile and what he lacks in size he makes up for with personality!

We purchased Gus from a small local store and quickly fell in love with him and the leopard gecko species.

Gus loves all his animal buddies and is particularly fond of Herschel. His favorite food is mealworms and he loves to explore the world outside his tank whenever he can and climb in the hoodie pockets of whoever will let him.

Herschel
2 y/o American Pit Bull Terrier mutt

Herschel is our first APBT, but not our first rescue pup. We adopted Herschel from Volunteers for Animals at the Genesee County Animal Shelter in Batavia, NY. He was seized by animal services as a three-month-old puppy after he was found crammed in a cat crate locked in a shed. But despite his sad start in life, Herschel is a happy-go-lucky boy who's happy to do whatever you ask him to!

He particularly loves to go for car rides (especially if you take him to a car wash!), getting warm baths, and run around the farm with his people.

Jazz
16 y/o APHA mare

Jazz is the mare who changed our opinions about the stereotypical "mare". Born in Spencerport, NY out of Skips Gold Star Dust and by Pocos Dun N Style, Jazz is a solid buckskin APHA mare registered as Pocos Buckskin Jaz. Rae shows her under the show name She's Like Gold Dust and together they are champions in adult walk/trot English Pleasure and Paint Under Saddle.

Jazz is a sassy mare and loves to be with her "brother", Bug, and her favorite pastimes include galloping, smiling at everyone (literally!), eating peppermints or apples, and napping in the sun.

Harley
7 y/o miniature gelding

Harley is our first mini horse and though he may only be 29.5" tall, he is a lot of sass and fun in a little body!

We got Harley from High Hopes Farm in Honeoye Falls, NY in January 2020 after they rescued him from a neglectful situation where he was left in a stall of mud and manure by himself with insufficient means of food and water. But you'd never know that's the situation Harley came from to meet him in person, he absolutely loves people!

Shortly after adopting him Harley learned to drive and has since had a successful show career in the WNYCCA ECHO show series.

Millie
2020 Moriesian Thoroughbred cross filly

Millie is a 2020 1/2 thoroughbred, 1/4 Morgan, and 1/4 Friesian filly out of a thoroughbred mare, Hoosier Scout, and by Morieisan stallion Pietro Antonio DHA. She was bred and born at Dutch Hollow Acres in Avon, NY and her registered name is "Magnificent DHA".

Millie is an old soul in a young body with a kind and sweet personality to boot. She absolutely loves her people and will always come over for a hug and a kiss if you're around. She loves to do any activity to put her mind to work and learn new things and will try her best with anything you throw at her.

She particularly loves the minis and hanging out with them, and though she's not a fan of treats she'll be your best friend if you sneak some alfalfa pellets her way.

Reign
18 y/o miniature gelding

Registered with the AMHR as "Gallery Original Pharaohs Reign" but more simply and affectionately known as Reign, Reign is our honorary family member here at the farm. Owned by Lindsay LaBella of Dutch Hollow Acres, we brought Reign home with Harley and Millie to be a companion after he and Harley became inseparable best friends over the summer.

Reign is a retired show mini who now spends his days hanging with the herd and getting spoiled rotten by his humans. We're very happy to have Reign as a member of our herd.

Joey & Chandler
4 month old kittens

Last but not least of our menagerie of critters are brothers Joey (grey and white) and Chandler (solid grey). Affectionately named after the "Friends" TV show characters, these little troublemakers came home to us in late November to enjoy the pampered kitten life before getting to be wild boys in spring 2020 as our barn cats.

These two are an adorable and mischievous duo who never cease to make us laugh with their antics, whether it be chasing their toys around a room or wrestling and rolling around the floor together, comedy is never far away when Joey and Chandler are around!
