Check this out! Pawsitive Friendships got their very own mini horse, Violet!
It’s the Year of the Horse… and we have the perfect way to celebrate. 🐴✨
Today, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, we are thrilled to introduce Violet, Pawsitive Friendships’ very own mini horse. 💜
For years, families have asked when farm therapy animals would be available beyond one region of the Valley. Violet represents a powerful answer to that question. She is part of our commitment to taking Pawsitive Steps Forward—expanding access and bringing farm therapy animals directly into schools and adult day programs across Maricopa County.
Violet is already bringing curiosity, calm energy, and so much personality to our organization. Soon, she will help create meaningful moments of confidence, connection, and growth for the individuals we serve—especially those who may be fearful of or allergic to dogs, or who have never experienced a horse up close.
We’re just getting started… stay tuned for more exciting news coming this afternoon. 👀💙
