Equine Donations
Equest has horses of all shapes and sizes to best fit the needs of our riders. Different breeds, sizes, and personalities of horses are needed for a wide range of activities including riding, driving, vaulting, groundwork, and more.
Equest Center will evaluate the following when looking for our next potential therapy horse:
- Conformation
- Overall health
- Age
- Gaits and manner of going
- Attitude, reliability and adaptability
IMPORTANT NOTE! While we may be able to accommodate some minor health issues, horses must be sound enough to work regularly.
