Ivan, is one of our earlier Horses for Heroes- participants who since we got him horseback has worked with us on spring brandings, fall gathers and who Cowboy'd UP! even getting his own horse. In fact Ivan's motivation and love of ranching and the cowboy way inspired in many ways what would take us from simple horse therapy to what has become our Cowboy UP! program.
Moon seen here in this picture has made full circle and is now here as our newest program horse generously donated by Ivan who is now working with champion cutting horses while he attends university.
Veterans helping veterans is a characteristic of what we do. It is the cowboy way! Thanks Ivan!
