On May 17,2002 resident’s at the Good Samaritan Center nursing home in Dowling Park, Florida were introduced to the Spotted Saddle Horse by Sandi and Ken Bartolotti of Walkin’ Tall Farm, Live Oak, Florida.

The Bartolotti's presented two horses for the patients viewing: the famed nineteen year old Paint’s Rooster, sire of multi blue ribbon winners and Apache’s Dillon, a two-year-old gelding. The horses enjoyed the attention just as much as the people enjoyed seeing and petting them, proving once again the Spotted Saddle Horse is indeed a horse for all seasons of life.
