There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man. ~Winston Churchill

I volunteer at a Disabled Riding School and it is truly truly remarkable how riding a horse can benefit riders. Its so refreshing when the child is assisted to be dismounted from their charge and thanks you for leading them. Brings a tear to the eye it does :)

Any animal is very good for someone with autism, I should know, dogs help my autism. (:

I have always found that horses are the best healing medicine. I love this story and love that this worked for them. I hope that one day i will open my own place for children with horses. i have worked on a shoe string for years with horses. and want to help with the therapy again with my horse.
