Review for Dharmahorse , Las Cruces, NM, USA
Dharmahorse Equine Sanctuary
A tireless undertaking…
I have been blessed, privileged and humbled to know Katharine and the good works going on at Dharmahorse Equine Sanctuary for the past 7 years.
DH provides a habitable and knowledge rich environment for both horses and students.
Dharmahorse will always place the care of the horses as a priority, addressing the specific needs of each horse under their care – including feed, housing and hands on care. Countless hours are spent grinding hay for those unable to chew and digest normally. Moving a horse from one location to another for their comfort. When a horse cries at 3:00am in the morning, rest assured Katharine and Mark will be on their feet in a micro-second! This is not a one-size-fits all organization.
This extremely worthy organization exists on donations and grants. Every single penny goes to the sanctuary. Thankfully Katharine’s knowledge includes medicinal herbs and remedies for the health and well being of these horses. Katharine grows many of these herbs saving much needed funds.
Students coming to the sanctuary will learn much more than is taught under “normal” riding instruction. Students will learn the care of horses. How to properly care for them and their equipment.
Katharine is a generous and giving soul. A teacher. I’ve asked so many questions over the years, always receiving prompt and informative replies that put into action ALWAYS worked! Never charging me for her time.
As Katharine would say, “Compassion versus Compulsion.”
Not an easy calling, this is a 24/7 operation again based on the needs of the horse. Every horse that comes to Dharmahorse is loved, no exceptions!
The world is a much better place with Katharine and Dharmahorse in it. I am a better person for knowing her.
