Ronald Reagan and Winston Churchill were both horsemen.

I think it was Teddy Roosevelt who said, "There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man." And that's especially true if you're disabled or injured - they give you mobility and a great feeling of accomplishment.

The stable where I train sponsors a therapeutic riding program and participates in the Special Olympics. My mare is one of the horses used in the program. She is an angel and treats those kids like antique china.

When we're out hunting or jumping cross country, she's a completely different critter. Horses know when somebody needs a little extra care.
