​Facts About Me
Breed: Paint Horse
Born: 2009
Program(s): Equine Assisted Counseling
Year Joined Program: 2021

My Story
I recently joined the program from an equine rescue. When I first arrived, I was often suspicious of people. After the first week, I quickly learned what my new job would be and began trusting the humans around me. I love meeting the clients and enjoy being brushed while they talk.  I am currently in training for the therapeutic riding program.
​
​Special Talents and Skills
I am very good at helping clients stay calm and grounded while talking about upsetting things. I often help comfort them by letting them stroke my soft fur.

I am also very social and try to be friends with everyone in my herd. I am a really good model for communicating boundaries to others in a healthy and assertive way.


Want to support my work? Join my Carrot Club! Scroll down to read about the benefits to supporting me at each level!
Your sponsorship will support me and my herd by providing  feed, hay, veterinary and farrier care, tack and equipment, other necessities, and most importantly, carrots! 
What does it cost to care for a therapy equine?
$4,500 for board, feed, and hay ($375/month)
$1000 for veterinary and farrier care (~$84/month)
