We all need a little zen on a Monday morning. How about this quiet moment at the farm?
Thanks, Jorrit🖤

❤️🩹 Research has PROVEN equine therapy works!
🐴 On this World Mental Health Day, we want to share how our sanctuary in Avon, CT is the perfect place for you (or someone you love) to experience the magic of knowing and loving a horse.
🐴 A study by British Horse Society found 80% of horseback riders say they feel “quite a lot” or “extremely” cheerful, relaxed, happy or active when riding.
🏇 Riders develop confidence, better physical health and problem-solving skills, develop socialization and companionship skills, and get to take-in our beautiful sanctuary atop Nod Hill in picturesque Avon, CT.
🧲 When our volunteers turn our horses in or out, muck the stalls and paddocks, water and feed, fill hay bags, and groom our horses, they discover the healing benefits of “getting your hands dirty”, making a difference and caring for these peaceful animals.
🧠 In a society where young people and adults feel stressed, anxious and unhappy, we here at US Horse Welfare and Rescue strive for solutions. It’s at the core of our mission: to rehabilitate unwanted or neglected horses and teach our community the healing benefits of human-to-horse connections.
♥️ We’d love to hear from you. Visit our website or send us a message to learn more about how you can experience the benefits of equine therapy.

The Pack! A taste of what we’re in for. My little Jack Russell and our big black Great Dane mix getting to know the new guy “Trek” , a skinny brown 3 legged 8 month old who has no idea he only has 3 legs.
Summer buddies made a song about STORMY! Such an amazing group of girls!
