Our Four-Legged Staff

HorsePower horses are a special bunch selected for their calm demeanors, unique gaits, and cooperative attitudes. We use a range of breeds from American Bashkir Curly horses, to Arabians. Our horses are trained to handle the unpredicatability of life in a therapuetic environment, and are treated to care that befits their most special jobs! All horses in our program are given yearly teeth floats, sheeth cleaning, vaccinations and check ups. These lucky critters also regularly recieve chiropractics, Pulse Electro Magnetic Field Therapy (Thank you Midwest PEMF!) , and a few too many apples!

Captain America

Rainey

Rainey is a 19 year old POA.  He is on the smaller side but do not let that fool you, he has a lot of spunk in that little body.  Rainey is used in Hippotherapy and he tones down his spunkiness as soon as his rider walks in.  He absolutely LOVES attention and is the first to the gate for some scratches.  Rainey also likes to have fun, he can be seen playing with his buddy Captain out in the pastures.  Rainey was generously donated to HorsePower by Marisa Draper.
