Henry is the original therapy mini for Horses & Heroes. He goes anywhere, and loves his job and people! Bedside, wheelchair, up elevators, you name it, he goes there. He might be small but he is fearless.

Horses & Heroes is proud to announce the newest additional to our therapy team!

Horses & Heroes serves those who suffer silently from trauma. We provide the space and opportunity to our greatest heroes. Join us in helping them find peace and healing through the strength and power of horses.

Serving in combat can affect soldiers long after they return home from war. For some, the wounds are physical and visible. For others, they go deeper, affecting their mental health. Staff at Boulder Crest Retreat in Bluemont, VA, use horses—equine therapy—to help veterans heal these invisible wounds. ➡ Subscribe: http://bit.ly/NatGeoSubscribe About National Geographic: National Geographic is the world's premium destination for science, exploration, and adventure.
