What makes this horse a good therapy horse? 
Abbey has active movement, which is great for stimulating the riders senses, improves focus & mobilizes joints. She is small horse, which makes her less intimidating to new riders & children.

Abbey has been at CARD since October of 2001. Before coming to CARD, Abbey was a school horse at an active lesson & show barn in Aurora, where she taught beginners and did some jumping.
