Circle T Ranch

🌟 Horse Spotlight: Meet Georgia! 🌟

Today we’re shining the spotlight on our beautiful Georgia, a 20-year-old buckskin mare with a heart as golden as her coat.

Georgia was generously donated to Circle T Ranch by David and Cindee Lopez, and we are incredibly grateful for their gift. Every day, Georgia shares her gentle spirit with the children and adults in our equine-assisted program, helping individuals with developmental disabilities build confidence, experience joy, and form meaningful connections.

Kind, patient, and incredibly loving, Georgia seems to understand exactly when someone needs a little extra comfort. She has a special gift for making people smile and loves being part of each rider’s journey. If Georgia had one wish, it would simply be for everyone around her to be happy.

And if you’re wondering how to win Georgia’s heart—it only takes one thing… Fuji apples! 🍎 They are, without question, her favorite treat in the whole world.

Thank you, Georgia, for sharing your gentle healing spirit with everyone you meet. We are so blessed to have you as part of the Circle T Ranch family. ❤️🐴

🌟 Horse Spotlight: Meet Tilly! 🌟
Today we’re celebrating one of the most special members of our herd—Tilly! ❤️

Tilly’s registered name is Chantilly Smoke, and this beautiful 30-year-old registered Paint mare has lived an incredible life filled with resilience, service, and love.

We are deeply grateful to Patrick and Katie Henley and Dr. Robert and Emily Williams for generously donating Tilly to our program. Their kindness has allowed Tilly to continue doing what she does best—changing lives.

Before coming to Circle T Ranch, Tilly faithfully served as a lesson horse at a Girl Scout camp in Santa Cruz. When the camp was destroyed in the devastating Santa Cruz fires, she was relocated to the Fresno foothills. Sadly, she once again found herself in the path of disaster and had to be evacuated during the Dinky Fire.
After overcoming so much, Tilly has found her forever home at

Circle T Ranch, where she is enjoying a well-deserved retirement with a very important job. Today, she gently carries children and adults with developmental disabilities, providing confidence, smiles, and unforgettable moments with every ride.

Tilly reminds us that every horse has a story, and sometimes the most meaningful chapters come later in life. We are honored that her journey has led her to us.

Thank you, Tilly, for your gentle heart, your patience, and the joy you bring to everyone who meets you. We love you! ❤️🐴
