Meet Gator, he is one of our most friendly horses. Gator was rescued from the meat truck and brought to a rescue center in Texas. He was very skinny and his hooves were overgrown.

Gator is special, he meets our clients at the
Gunner was our first rescue horse. He gives the best hugs and often loves all the people who come to do equine therapy with him. He has let people hold onto him when they cry. We gave him a forever home after meeting him at the Humane Society of North Texas. He was surrendered because his owner got to old to care for him. He is retiring happily while helping people get through tough counseling iss
Spike was donated to us by Campfire Creek Therapeutic Riding Center in Texas. He has had disabled kids riding him for years, he is older and helps with our teen groups. He enjoys treats and will smell your hand each time to double triple check if you have a treat. He struggles with some hoof issues and is slowly healing from a bad visit with a Ferrier a few years ago.
Max and Elle are the cutest pair. Max comforts people when they cry, he stays with them and checks on them regularly. Elle is soft and fluffy and loves attention. She is very calm and enjoys hanging out with the horses just as much as we do. They hang out with us inside when the weather is not great, and provide lots of laughs, and hugs.
Pepper two Guinea Pigs help us learn boundaries and provide indoor therapy lessons when the weather is bad. They were donated to us, by someone who rescued them from being mistreated.
Pongo, Perdy. Lucy, and Lucky, our mini pigs provide rewarding relaxation time and laughs. They love belly rubs and really help us learn to relax and enjoy rest.
