I love horses, my family loves horses. We’ve enjoyed having horses in our lives for years. So it came as no surprise to me that these special animals can do amazing things for people. That’s why I’ve been involved for many years with Bit by Bit, Rogers State University’s therapeutic riding program.

The remarkable stories I hear inspire me and touch my heart. You can see children and adults with physical challenges gain a sense of independence. And while they’re having fun, their balance and coordination are improving too. Bit by Bit therapy isn’t limited to physical challenges; developmental, emotional and other issues are helped in a variety of ways.

Bit by Bit is the only therapeutic riding program in the United States that is affiliated with a university. It’s housed at the beautiful Rogers State University Equestrian Center. Bit by Bit is a non-profit program, offering remarkable services for free. But it takes dedicated volunteers and generous financial donations to continue. Visit their website if you are interested in learning more.

Bit by Bit is something near and dear to my heart and I thought you might like learning about it too. I hope you check out their website.

Enjoy the snapshots!
