Horse and Flag

Although I’m a day late with my post, in light of Veteran’s Day, I thought I’d post a link to an article I read.  Click here to see the article, which refers to horses being used as therapy to combat veterans suffering from post traumatic stress disorder.

Thankfully, most of us never deal with the type of mental trauma that some of the brave defenders of our country have to learn to live with.  But about any of us could have told you what a fantastic release from stress and pressure the horse can provide.  Horses continue to amaze me with their ability to perform as therapy animals.
