McDreamy looks pretty handsome in his new swag from the Jockey Club of America. Our one-eyed hero is the talk of the town!

Progress looks different for everyone — but at We Can Ride, every step counts. 💪🐴

Whether it’s a rider finding balance in the saddle, sharing a smile with their favorite horse, or gaining the confidence to try something new — each moment is a victory worth celebrating.

Our participants remind us every day that ability comes in many forms, and with the right support, everyone can move forward. 💛

Thank you to our riders, families, volunteers, and donors who make this incredible journey possible!

Welcome, Rachel!

Interacting with horses encourages both verbal and non-verbal communication. Our riders are learning to give clear cues and to read and respond to the horse’s body language.

Therapeutic riding is a wholistic, complementary therapy, and our riders use the skills they learn with us outside the barn everyday!

For thousands of years, horses and humans have walked side by side. First as wild creatures admired from afar, then as partners in travel, farming, and battle, horses carried us across continents and into new eras of history.

Over time, the relationship shifted—from necessity, to sport, to companionship and healing.

Today, the bond remains: a living thread that connects our modern lives with the long, shared journey of horse and human.

Are you drawn to horses? Rediscover the connection forged through 4000 years of shared history. We would love to have you out to the barn for a curated horse experience. Email Mary at clients@wecanride.org to learn more.

Look who just arrived on the therapeutic riding scene!

It’s back to school time for Chilly, who has graduated from boot camp just in time for fall session.

Our little guy has a big job ahead of him - bringing joy and confidence to everyone he meets.

We think he’s off to a solid start…don’t you?
