We would like to share that our sweet Petie was laid to rest this beautiful afternoon surrounded by love.

Many in the Long Island horse community know Petie. His bald face, painted body and perky ears- an easily recognizable man. A long-time lesson pony at Thomas School of Horsemanship, he retired and became a steadfast mount for our pint-sized Adaptive Riding participants in the Summer of 2022. He gained his nickname of “Speedy Petie” for his eagerness to work and his enthusiastic strut in all of his lessons. Over Petie’s lifetime he has probably taught thousands of lessons, not just about riding but about life. He was steady, strong willed, passionate about his job, loved his herd mates fiercely, was protective of all around him, and was a friend to all. He was one of the first faces people met and won over everyone with his sassy personality and kind spirit.

In his recent months of retirement from mounted lessons, he continued to teach and bring people together. He enjoyed his ‘Petie Powerwalks’ with volunteers and clients while they learned leading, taught grooming lessons, and most importantly…taught people how to graze a horse on the best grass the property had to offer…searching high and low for the best nibbles.

We are eternally grateful for all he did for us. Please join us in celebrating the life that Petie had. His impact was far reaching and profound for the entire horse community. Our barn will simply not be the same without him. Thank you Petie ❤

Join us on Monday June 15th as we honor Joseph Liana at our 2026 Golf Outing! 🐴⛳️

Joseph has been a dedicated supporter of HorseAbility for many years and a steadfast advocate for children with special needs across Long Island. Through his involvement with the Theresa Foundation and his support of other non-profit organizations—including the Little Sisters of the Poor and the Boys & Girls Clubs of America—Joseph consistently demonstrates his commitment to strengthening and uplifting our community. Joseph and his wife, Erin, have proudly called Massapequa, Long Island, home for over 20 years. Together with their children, Sophia & Joseph Jr., who are both involved in equestrian activities, the Liana family continues to champion causes that create opportunity, inclusion, and hope throughout Long Island.

We are deeply grateful for Joseph’s support of HorseAbility’s mission: To improve the lives of individuals with special needs through facilitated interactions with horses.
