It is with heavy hearts that we say, our beloved Checkers has crossed the rainbow bridge. It is easy to say that there will never be another like him. He loved his people, and took the absolute best care of all who were lucky enough to swing their leg over his back. Checkers was the epitome of a great one, and his passing leaves us with broken hearts. We are so grateful to have had him in our program, thanks to his owner Chloe Hooper. We spent many wonderful years with him, and created so many amazing memories for his riders. He gave his riders confidence, courage, and sparked that love for the horse in so many people. We are forever grateful to him. He lived a long, beautiful, 25 almost 26 years of life, and we are so blessed to have had so many good years with him. Thank you Checkers, this one has not been easy, you will never be forgotten, and we love you so much. Rest easy sweet, sweet boy♥️
