HorsesOur horses are the essential part of our therapeutic team. Each horse brings its own talents, skills, personality, and wisdom to assist in growing, learning, and healing. Whether it's our big draft horse Rielly, or our little mini Mya, we use each horse according to the clients needs and what the horses bring. In Equine Assisted Growth and Learning, it is important for our horses to live in herds to develop their natural leadership abilities and roles, so that they have the opportunity to be themselves and give honest feedback in the arena. In Therapeutic Riding we utilize the natural compassionate instinct that our horses show and help them develop their confidence and steadiness to carry handicapped riders. Eight horses are housed at the Dream Park and eleven others live at our farms in Burlington and Salem Counties.
