Hendrix

Hendrix is the newest addition to the AWH herd of therapy horses. He is a 13 year-old Clydesdale-Thoroughbred cross who stands 16.3 hands tall. He loves people, treats, and will do tricks ( so far he knows how to smile and to bow). Make sure to say hi the next time you are at the barn.

Cassini

Cassini arrived at our barn in 2015. He is an Oldenburg Hanoverian, born in Germany–with a passport to prove it! Cassini is a 16.2 hands bay horse, with a brown body, a black mane and tail, 4 white socks on his feet, and a white blaze on his nose. He loves to stick out his tongue and make funny faces. He also likes to nibble on his lead line or any rope that is nearby. He is very sociable and loves attention!

Berit

You might say Berit is the most unique looking horse in our barn. That’s because she’s a Norwegian Fjord, one of the oldest breeds of horses: tan with a main and tail that is both black and white. Berit was a brood mare (she had babies), and also worked as a therapy horse at another facility besides being someone’s trail horse and companion. We’re so glad she found her way to AWH and fit right in! A true social butterfly, Berit loves to say hi to people when they walk past and is always looking to meet new volunteers.

Justin

Justin, a Pony of America (P.O.A.), started with us when he was only 10 years old, making him our most experienced horse. He is what we call sorrel: reddish brown in color with a flaxen (blonde) mane and tail, and has a white star on his forehead. While Justin is typically well-behaved, he also likes to play with the new volunteers and enjoys his time in the sun between lessons. Justin can be a picky eater, unless you try and give it to someone else first…then he definitely wants it!
