Minis and Friends – Little Horses, Big Hearts - was created to fulfill the growing need for an unique equine encounter providing to those with special needs an opportunity to experience Equine Assisted Activities (EAA) using trained miniature horses to come to visit with them in the community. Our “mini ambassadors” are a mobile herd of trained miniature horses that bring their equine guided touch therapy skills to assisted living/nursing homes, children's shelters, special needs & lifeskills youth, community events, home & hospice and literally anywhere a special visit is needed.
Goals
•Raise awareness with other miniature horse owners to Join Us in our Outreach Program
•Collaborate community service opportunities with students at local Universities & Colleges
•Development of a Program to use pet therapy techniques to open doors and relieve stress with families of the Deployed/Wounded Warriors in Austin
