Love isn’t always spoken — sometimes it’s felt in a gentle nuzzle or a steady presence. 🐴💛

Fuji with her foal Applesauce. Piper with little Tobi. Their patience, protection, and quiet devotion show us what unconditional love looks like.

It’s the same love our therapy horses share in every session — offering comfort, trust, and encouragement without needing words.

This Valentine’s, we celebrate the love that heals, nurtures, and transforms. ❤️

PS. These are throwback pictures of Fuji & Applesauce and Tobi & Piper
