River Thunder Ranch serves as a retirement sanctuary for elderly horses, including former therapy animals. The facility provides a space for these horses to live out their final years in a protected environment following their active careers.

Among the residents is Pinto, a 30-year-old retired therapy horse. Caretaker Michele Sleighel notes that the horse appears to retain social behaviors from his time working with children, though he now focuses his attention on daily routines at the ranch.
