Testimonials
Report
Tyler has come out of his 'autism' and learned to focus on the task at hand. When he has to find and catch his horse, put a halter on him, lead him along, groom and saddle up, there's little opportunity to space out if you want to have a lesson! I have personally observed the interaction between the autistic consumers, the horses and the whole barn environment.
