Meet the Herd
Equine Tranquility Wellness Center is a non-profit corporation which strives to improve the lives and welfare of horses.
We find our horses through donations or rescues and then train them to be part of the therapeutic riding program.
If you or someone you know would be interested in donating an equine that you think would be a great match for our program, please contact us.
We request that you send an email to colleen@equinetranquility.org with as much information as possible and someone will contact you.
THANK YOU!

Meet
Licorice. He was donated to our program
from a standardbred trainer. He was off
the track for several months and he was their favorite horse. The trainer’s girlfriend used to hop on him
bareback and ride him around the property.
He is 9 years old and is 15.3 hands.
He acts like a big puppy dog and loves attention. His best friend is Zoura. Licorice’s favorite thing is to take his
rider on a trail ride and go exploring.

Meet Arty. Arty was
donated to us by a man in south jersey that we never got a chance to meet. Arty’s owner had been sick with cancer for
over two years, and Arty had not been ridden in a year by the man. He was paying for him, and had someone at the
barn taking care of him. The owner
became really sick and decided to rehome Arty.
We took him on trial for three weeks and the last day of our trial
period the owner passed away. We decided
to keep Arty, but had some issues to work out.
When he came to us he had sole bruising in all four feet and was very
nervous to trust us. We believe while
the past owner was sick, whoever was taking care of Arty must have handled him
very roughly. It has taken months to get
him to trust us, and to heal his feet. We
also recently found out Arty has Lyme’s Disease and he is currently getting
treated for it. Arty is very kind, and
he looks at you with the softest eye. He
has a wonderful western jog, and will follow his leader around like a puppy
dog. We also started Arty in Parelli
training January of 2011.
