Our Herd Expanded : Meet Ozzy!

We are thrilled to introduce Aslan, affectionately known as Ozzy, our newest member of the Stable Friendships Foundation family. Ozzy isn’t just your everyday horse; he has a unique story of resilience and strength that aligns perfectly with our mission. At only 7 years old, this remarkable youngster is already making waves in the world of equine-facilitated therapy.

Ozzy has been specifically trained for our programs, making him a trailblazer in our efforts to provide healing and support through partnering with horses. His training has equipped him with the skills to connect deeply with participants, offering a sense of calm and understanding that is truly extraordinary.

Ozzy's presence is more than just an addition to our herd; he represents a new chapter in our journey towards enhancing the therapeutic experiences we offer. We can’t wait for you to meet him and experience the joy and healing he brings to our community. His gentle nature and intuitive understanding make him a perfect fit for our work, and we are excited to see the positive impact he will have on everyone he interacts with.
