providing a unique form of therapy and recreation through use of the horse
Horses

All of our therapy horses have been selected for their quiet disposition, their patient and loving nature, and their desire to serve.  They go through a training process so that they don’t mind students riding backwards, balls bouncing off of their bodies, ribbons flying, and music playing.  They have the ability to reflect emotions from the rider, communicate unspoken meaning to the instructor, and provide the foundation from which the rider flourishes.  They truly are the therapists in the riding sessions.  Thanks for taking the time to get to know our herd!

Sponsor a Horse

Our special therapy horses work hard, always offering patience, strength, and understanding to our students without asking anything in return. They all receive the best care to ensure that they remain healthy, happy and comfortable. Between veterinary care, routine maintenance, hoof care, feed and supplements, the cost for one horse for one year exceeds $3,000. Please let us know if you are interested in sponsoring a horse for one year, or contributing to the cost of their care.

If you sponsor a horse for an entire year, you will:

  • Receive a certificate of sponsorship with the horse’s picture
  • Receive a tax deductible donation receipt
  • Be recognized on the website, in the annual newsletter, and on the horse’s sign
  • Receive periodic updates regarding your horse
