The Monkey Farm's Horses of HOPE
Adopt your own horse to support our mission to continue to Give Hope Because the outside of a horse, is good for the inside of a man. - Winston ChurchillOur horse adventures are led by our bi-lingual naturalist guides, who are residents of our farm. If you love horses, you will instantly feel a deep connection with our guides, as they tell you the incredible story of our home and the people and animals we share it with.
Our horses are bred and raised here on our farm primarily for temperament and strenth. We train all our horses ourselves using only gentle Natural Horsemanship methods. This creates a bond of trust with our horses which ensures they will respond calmly in all circumstances for first-time riders up to advanced riders.
You will see that we never use metal bits in our horse’s mouths, but instead give them advanced training to guide them only with soft bitless bridles. This is to ensure that an inexperienced rider does not accidently hurt their mouth. As you can tell, our horses are like our children to us.
You might also notice that there are no metal horse shoes on our babies. They all have a special hoof trim that keeps their hooves natural and enables them to be more sure-footed with healthier feet.
After every horse adventure ends, you will see that each horse is given a cool, refreshing bath before relaxing in their pasture or paddock.
Our horses are treated with a lot of love and give a lot of love in return as you will quickly discover when you arrive at our home.
