Bear has been a therapy horse at Special Equestrians his entire life.

The number of lives he has impacted & changed are in the thousands. A steady eddy with the BEST quirky personality, he has exceeded all job qualifications and expectations. All who cross his path fall in love with him. He is the most dependable & trusting horse I’ve ever come across.

From beginner to advanced lessons, hippotherapy lessons to community outreach at senior living facilities, he has touched the lives of countless individuals, all with his ears pricked forwards hoping for a treat. Bear knows his job is to help others, & he does it so well. He is now in his 20s & couldn’t be more deserving of recognition. I wish everyone had a Bear at their barn—their lives would be so much better.
