Grooming

Our grooming program includes goal-oriented horsemanship activities such as: Grooming, Feeding treats, Decorating horses (accessories and horse-friendly paints), Taking short walks with the horses, and Arena games.

This program is designed to help our participants achieve their emotional goals by working with our horses, and also to become more comfortable around horses in general.
