Meet The Gentle Carousel Miniature Therapy Horses At The Conservation Summit

On November 23, Ocala Breeder’s Sales (OBS) will be occupied by horses of a different color – and SIZE. We are pleased to announce that the Gentle Carousel Miniature Therapy Horses will be featured at our 2021 Conservation Summit. Surely, you’ve heard about these adorable horses and their quest to bring healing and joy in the midst of disaster. They have been featured on Animal Planet, National Geographic, and all the major networks. Come and meet some of Marion County’s most famous residents! Learn more about their heartwarming and worthy mission.

Bringing Love Where It Is Needed Most

Gentle Carousel Miniature Therapy Horses ease human suffering during times of natural emergencies, violence, traumatic events and loss with the assistance of highly trained horses, volunteers and the generosity of donors.

 

The horses also work with medical professionals in oncology units, intensive care units and with occupational, speech and physical therapists. As part of treatment teams, the horses support patients who have suffered strokes, traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries, amputations and burns.

 

Gentle Carousel’s literacy program, Reading Is Magic, brings therapy horses inside schools, at risk youth programs, literacy events and libraries to inspire young readers and “bring books to life.”

Don’t you want to hug one? Of course you do! See you at the Summit!
