Sometimes healing doesn’t happen in a chair…
Sometimes it happens in the quiet, next to a horse. 🐴🤍

Big day for The ARK Foundation PNW!
Today we’re on an adventure out in Athol at the Equestrian Center of North Idaho — on the hunt for the perfect horse to join our Equine Therapy program.
We are working toward hosting trauma workshop retreats that include:
♨️ Hot springs healing
🐎 Equine therapy
🌿 Rest, support, and restoration

This is just the beginning… stay tuned. ✨
If you feel called to donate and help make this vision possible — every bit truly matters.

🌙 ARK Foundation PNW — Street Outreach Night | Volunteers Wanted

Tomorrow evening, we’ll be taking the ARK Foundation van out onto the streets of Spokane to personally hand out 50 complete care packages, plus dozens of warm clothing items, coats, blankets, hygiene supplies, bottled water & food items to those currently living unsheltered.

This outreach is specifically focused on reaching people who are out on the streets at night and not in shelters, so we’ll be heading out after dark to meet people where they truly are. This is deeply meaningful work — but it can also come with risks. For safety reasons, this outreach is adults only, and participation will be limited to a small, prepared group.

If you feel called to join us, please comment below or message me. I’ll be selecting a handful of volunteers who:
• Can remain calm, respectful, and compassionate
• Understand that we are guests in their space
• Are able to follow safety guidance and remain with the team at all times
This isn’t charity — this is community. If you can’t attend but want to support, prayers, encouragement, donations, and love are always valued. ❤️‍🩹

Ark K9 announcement

I'm going to be arranging a puppy socializing class soon for small/medium breed dogs.

Clients and friends, if you have a medium- small breed puppy (15-25 lbs) in the age range around 4-8 MO old, with all their vaccines, this is the time to be exposing them to the world and other safe playmates to learn how to behave and encounter new dogs. Socializing your puppy properly helps to avoid unwanted behavioral issues as they mature into adults. I will be supervising this class to help teach you what to look for when introducing your dog to new friends.

Message for more details 🐶 👍

Ark K9 announcement!

Congratulations to Lexi and Simba for completing their 4 week basic obedience program! 🎉 🥳 🐶 🎉

Old dogs CAN learn new tricks!!!
Simba is 5 years old and struggled with some reactive biting and his basic commands.
We added some structure to their life with a basic obedience course and reactivity assessment to pin point the base of his aggression.
Lexi now has the tools to continue to rebuild and strengthen her relationship with her favorite companion to have a more positive and balanced household ❤️
Good job Lexi keep up the good work!
