About Us

A few weeks after he was gone the woman who owned the boarding facility where she had kept her horse called and asked if she'd like to come out and ride one. When she arrived at the facility the owner took her into the barn and brought her to stall.

Inside was a tall, skinny, chestnut horse cowering in the corner.

"She's yours."

Those words were like magic to a young girl. The horse quickly named Cocoa Belle was a Tennessee Walking Horse. Although she was not emaciated she had many emotional scars. Whenever you opened the stall door she would fly to the corner and stand there quaking until you left. She had absolutely no trust in people.

Both our founder and the facility owner worked with her daily until you couldn't recognize her as the same horse hiding in the stall corner only a month ago. She was the first horse to greet you at the pasture, and loved her cookies and making silly faces.

Our founder, Kayla, had always dreamed of rescuing and working with horses and Cocoa Belle had just sealed the deal.

Therapy Horses

A few years after rescuing Cocoa, Kayla started volunteering for a non-profit that provided hippotherapy services. One of the largest struggles seemed to be finding horses suited to and trained for therapy.

Seeing a way to merge her love of rescue horses and passion for helping others Kayla decided to start rescuing and training horses to be placed in various therapy programs throughout the country.
