Wishing a joyous Earth day! A truth resonates through the words of poet, writer, and farmer Wendell Berry, 'the Earth is what we all have in common.' Surrounded by colorful views and vibrant wildlife, our program's connection to the earth is undeniable. We're eternally grateful for the earth's bounty that nourishes our horses and provides a sanctuary for peace, joy, and growth.

Gentleman's Weekly Wisdom: "Don't wait for the right opportunity: create it" — George Bernard Shaw.

Please welcome Captain, a majestic new addition to our therapeutic riding family, generously leased to us by his owner who believes in the healing power of horses. Captain's previous owner was a mother of two who had witnessed firsthand the transformative impact of therapeutic riding. Though a past racing injury requires him to take it easy, his gentle nature and affectionate cuddles have already captured the hearts of our students. His owner discovered us through a Facebook post seeking horses suitable for therapeutic riding. Captain has quickly formed a special bond with Jerry (the oldest horse in the program), showcasing his amiable and endearing personality.

Jerry's new denchers have arrived! When we found out he was missing some molars last year, the vet ordered this. He likes them but the glue tastes funny. Installation video will not be posted due to Kendra needing both hands for placement.
