MEET OUR 2026 - 2027 HERD

All of our therapy animals live with dedicated volunteers and are carefully brought to our facility. Each animal undergoes thorough testing by our equine safety committee and is vet-checked to ensure they meet our program needs. If you have a horse, pony, or miniature horse that you'd like to bring in for testing, please reach out to our program coordinator for more information.

Kiwanis was purchased in 2018 with

the funds donated solely by Kiwanis

of Shelby.

The Equicizer is an innovative tool designed to transform riding and exercise into a joyful experience for children and adults with disabilities. Particularly beneficial for individuals with like Autism and Cerebral Palsy, it fosters mobility and enhances overall well-being. By simulating the movement of a live horse, the Equicizer serves as an excellent alternative for those with contraindications to riding, while also helping build confidence for participants who may not yet be ready to ride real horses.
