COVID-19 and Horse Helpers

Covid-19 Updates

The Covid-19 pandemic leaves Americans unsettled and anxious. Learning to maneuver and adapt to this new normal demands much from each of us. Here at Horse Helpers, the horses ground us and create stability; we want to extend that atmosphere beyond our barn doors.
