Meet the Team
AUTUMN
Our 24-year-old Thoroughbred, who has been a racehorse and brood mare for many years. She is kind, gentle and graceful and has an uncanny ability to know exactly what her human friends need. She loves nothing more than to graze with her herd.
SHOGUN
Our Skewbald Cob, who is 21 years old and a real “cheeky chappie”, he can always be found in the centre of whatever is happening. He has worked supporting people in recovery from addiction to substances for the last 10 years and is a true gentleman.
RIKO
Our 9 year-old Blanket Appaloosa. He loves human contact and doing his tricks. He is very affectionate (we think he thinks he is a dog). He is very nosey and hates to miss out on anything that is happening.
KARA AND JESS
A couple of playful rescue dogs, who are very loving and seem to have the ability to tune into anyone who needs a doggy hug. They love and adore the children and spend their days playing together and getting into whatever mischief they can.
