My son is a 9 year old with Down syndrome. We are unable to afford hippo therapy for our kiddo but Palomino Mounted Patrol makes it possible for him to receive the therapy at no expense. They help many families in the community and is a wonderful organization.
My son was afraid to get on the horse the first time and now, because of their patience with him, he isn't afraid and looks forward to it!
