Our Magnificent Horses

 

Our horses are carefully and expertly trained by some of the best professionals in the business. Selected on the basis of size, conformation, physical movement, and temperament to meet specific therapy objectives, the horses are rigorously trained, meticulously groomed and in “show” condition to greet every child for every therapy session.
