We get the best out of every horse by supporting their physical and mental wellbeing, letting them share their personality with us and with your child. Sometimes the best therapy horse is a giant goofball, and other times it’s the fancy pony. No matter what the end result is, we believe ensuring every horse in our program has optimal health and the ability to receive and extend love is the ultimate success.
Our Ethos
Our Process
Every horse who enters our program is considered a rehabilitation project at intake, regardless of how they came to Fathom. This allows us to more objectively assess the health of their overall health. Only after addressing any pain and providing plenty of time to be a horse in a pasture with friends can we truly begin to understand who they are.
Our ridden work intends to teach every horse to move comfortably and efficiently, providing tools to carry the rider correctly and preparing them for any career.
The Talisman Project
The Talisman Project is rooted in the belief that every kid should have access to horses, and every horse should have the opportunity to thrive. This collaboration between the Fathom Collective and Tinman Equine gives the ambitious teen the chance to work with an ex-racehorse, learning communication and executive functioning skills along with rehabilitation and ridden education without the additional financial obligation of owning or leasing a horse.
Each horse who graduates the program will have the opportunity to remain in Fathom’s Hippotherapy program, be adopted out to their teen, or move into a second career with a new family.
