Meet our Horses
BERT is a 20 year old American Cream Draft gelding. He jointed our family at 4Heroes as a reminder of our American Heritage, with his strength and willingness to work. He loves the attention he receives through our equine program. During lessons he enjoys teaching our students mounted archery. Despite being new to the sport he has shown students of all levels a great time.
Our veterans believe he has the most soulful eyes and mesmerizes you when you look into them. He will stare into your eyes until you feel he knows all about you.
It takes a lot of hay and grain to feed Bert, along with general care. When we got Bert he immediately needed eye surgery to remvoe cancer from his eyelid. Bert's amber eyes are more susceptible to these kinds of issues so he opten needs to wear a face mask to protect his eyes.

CHICK is a 20 year old Breeding Stock Paint gelding. 4Heroes Equine Therapy founded, Susan DiAmbrosio, purchased Chick 16 years ago to compete in team penning. Chick comes from a working cattle ranch in Earth, Texas. He proved to be a great performance horse along with being a great companion for Susan.
Chick is one of the foundation horses of our lesson program. His big heart and charcter prvode a genuine experience for everyone. He is a reminder of the horses that helped shape our country and the values our veterans demonstrate.
Being one of our senior horses, Chick spends most of his time just being loved on. No one walks into the barn without a welcome from Chick and an immediate sense of comfort and affection. His calm demeanor draws everyone into him.
Due to being a senior horse, Chick requires special shoeing and senior supplements.
Donations for our 4Heroes horses are always appreciated.
