Marlie and Brooke are more than just horse riders. They're friends who found a beautiful bond (and confidence!) at Healing Reins. For over a year, they've built stamina, balance, and focus while mastering dressage patterns side-by-side.

Brooke's mom, Annette, shared, "Her physical strength has definitely improved. Walking with Twister and preparing him for a ride is a fun way to exercise! Healing Reins is a wonderful organization. I'm forever grateful to the staff for giving my daughter a safe place to grow."

Marlie's mom, Carolyn, notes her daughter's love for the routine and the supportive, encouraging staff who still maintain expectations. These two remind us what happens when an encouraging place is given for people to grow, learn, and discover new strengths!

When you choose to harness the spirit of giving, you make transformations and friendships like theirs possible. Support the Financial Assistance Fund and keep our vital services accessible!

How do horses stay warm in the winter? They warm themselves by eating!

That’s right! During digestion, microbes formed in the cecum and large colon via fermentation release heat. This is like a little furnace inside.

This is also why the Healing Reins herd has free choice, good quality hay in the winter.

We are thrilled to announce that our beloved therapeutic pony, Noir, has been named Horse of the Year by the Kentucky Veterinary Medical Association Animal Hall of Fame! 🐴🌟🐴

This thoughtful honor celebrates Noir’s lifetime of service, especially his last seven years changing lives here at Healing Reins of Kentucky.

We’re sharing a beautiful reflection from one of the people who know him best... his veterinarian of nearly two decades - Dr. Hillary Henson.

"I first met Noir nineteen years ago... Even then, at sixteen, there was a gravity about him, a steadiness that belied his years and hinted at the wisdom he’d gathered through a life well-lived," shares Noir’s veterinarian.

The reflection chronicles Noir’s journey from a champion show pony, competing in eventing and dressage, to a dependable lesson pony, where "his legend only grew." But it is his work with us that truly defines his legacy.

"Perhaps his most profound purpose revealed itself in the last seven years. At Healing Reins of Kentucky, Noir found his calling in Adaptive Riding Lessons... It’s no exaggeration to say he has changed lives."

At 35 (give or take!), Noir is described as a "living repository of stories, a teacher of patience, courage, and gentle persistence." His rhythmic, steady walk inspires confidence and challenges riders learning balance and direction. He possesses an almost supernatural understanding of his riders.

"Noir seems to know exactly what each rider needs: a nudge forward, a moment of stillness, a steadying presence in the saddle."

Thank you to the Kentucky Veterinary Medical Association for recognizing the quiet, powerful magic of this remarkable pony. We are so grateful for the gift of Noir! 🙏 He reminds us that "healing is not always about medicine. Sometimes, it’s about showing up, listening, and believing in the quiet kind of magic that only a wise old pony can give."

Join us in celebrating Noir, our gentle giant in a small package! 🎉

Friends, Lilah’s story is why we do what we do! 🐴

Just four years ago, she was a shy, hesitant girl who had only recently started walking. Today, thanks to the power of equine-assisted services at Healing Reins, she's a confident, independent young woman.

This summer, Lilah reached an amazing milestone: Competing in a horse show all by herself! Her mom shared that what started as therapy has blossomed into a profound passion.

Our hope for every participant is for them to leave each session with greater confidence, improved skills, a love for horses, and a supportive environment to grow at their own pace... just like Lilah! 💛

When you choose to harness the spirit of giving, you help make these incredible transformations possible and ensure these vital services remain affordable for all families. Help us create more stories like Lilah's!
