Our Clydesdales offering some peace, calm and connection on a man's last journey. The family and those in attendance appreciated the presence of our horses and we felt privileged to be part of their day. The connection with horses lasts forever 🐴♥️

Even when they are young, and setting aside their teenage antics, the Clydesdale horses are known for their gentle, observant nature. As they mature, they learn from the older members of their herd, kept in line by the matriarchs, and of course kind human guidance.

Some research has shown that horses have over 300 million olfactory receptors, which allows them to be more in tune to / or be able to sense how we are feeling (humans have 5/6 million).

When working with a horse, mutual trust can be built upon, encouraging focus and confidence building. It’s a journey we are privileged to see unfold here at The Calm Clydesdale 🐴

Its important that my horses are willing participants in any therapeutic exchange. No headcollars, no food, no restrictions. A shared moment between human and horse. 🐴❤️

On a horrible wet evening all you can do is bring the Friday vibes 🎶 and some carrots 🥕🐴

Building confidence through animals can be easier as there is no judgement, words, or expectations. All our animals do their part in heping this process. They have no idea how powerful their presence is and how they helped a child overcome his fear. Through connection we can heal.
