Today, Winnie made her first visit back extra special at Vestavia Hills Elementary School – Liberty Park! 🐴❤️

Winnie had the opportunity to visit with students in grades K–5. This visit was especially meaningful because Cooper got to show off his very best friend to all of his peers! He also helped us educate the students about what it means to be a therapy horse and the important role therapy animals can play in the lives of others.

And, in true Winnie fashion, she was an absolute champion! 🏆 She stood patiently and completely still while every child going through carpool had the opportunity to stop, love on her, and give her plenty of praise and attention. 🥰

It was such an amazing first visit back, and we are so grateful for the warm welcome and such a special day. A huge thank you to Principal Mrs. Marron for inviting us and helping coordinate this unforgettable visit!

We can’t wait to come back! ❤️🐴

🐴 A Little Update from Winnie – The Therapy Mini💙

We owe you all an apology for our absence over the last several months. We know many of you have missed seeing Winnie, and we have missed our visits just as much.

Over the past several months, we made the difficult decision to pause all of Winnie’s visits while Bianca focused on her health. Our priority had to be making sure she was healthy and that we could safely provide visits without the risk of a medical emergency occurring while Winnie was out serving our community.

It hasn’t been easy putting something we love so much on hold, but we are so thankful for everyone who has continued to support, encourage, and check on us during this time. ❤️

✨ And now… we’re excited to announce a soft comeback! ✨

Winnie will be making her return this week at a very special place, and we cannot wait to share it with you! 🐴💕

We’ll be posting updates soon, along with upcoming availability and dates for Winnie’s visits. We are so excited to slowly get back to doing what we love most—bringing a little bit of joy, comfort, and sunshine wherever Winnie goes.

Thank you for your patience, understanding, prayers, and continued support of Winnie and her mission. We can’t wait to see you again! 🐴💙

The best is yet to come.✨

Spring Break looked a little different for us this year 🐴💙

Winnie and I had the absolute pleasure of visiting The Goldton at Athens, and this time we had a very special guest tagging along — Cooper! Since it was his spring break, he joined us for the visit… and honestly, he may have stolen a little bit of Winnie’s spotlight 😄

From smiles and laughter to sweet moments shared with residents and staff, it was one of those visits that reminds us why we do what we do. Watching connections happen — not just with Winnie, but with Cooper too — was incredibly special. Horses bring joy, but sometimes kids do too!

Winnie is OFFICIALLY the first horse to be allowed into Bryant Conference Center at The University of Alabama. 🎉🎉

We took on the ASADS Conference this week and she absolutely stole hearts 💛🐴
Being surrounded by so many passionate individuals, organizations, and advocates reminded me exactly why we do what we do. Winnie represents more than just a therapy mini—she represents connection, comfort, and the incredible impact horses can have on human lives.
From meaningful conversations to new opportunities to collaborate, this experience was so special. I’m beyond grateful to share Winnie’s mission and continue spreading awareness about the healing power of these amazing animals.

If you stopped by to meet Winnie—thank you! 🫶 We loved meeting each and every one of you.

Also a huge thank you to Kathleen Saucier with Samson's Strength Sustainable Veterans Project, Inc a 501-c3 for coordinating our visit and making all of this possible. You’re doing amazing things and we’re so excited to be a part of it.

We are incredibly proud to announce something very special! 🎉🐴💜

Winnie is a certified miniature therapy horse through AMTHA—and she is currently the only miniature horse in Alabama with this certification.

We take great pride in holding ourselves to the highest standards so that Winnie can continue doing what she does best—bringing comfort, connection, and joy to those who need it most. 🫶✨

This certification represents an extensive amount of training, preparation, and evaluation. Winnie has worked hard to demonstrate the temperament, behavior, and skills required to safely and confidently serve in a variety of environments.

For the facilities and communities we visit, this certification is more than a title—it is reassurance. It reflects our commitment to professionalism, reliability, and most importantly, that safety is always our number one priority.

If you are interested in having a certified and trusted therapy mini visit your facility or event, we would love to connect!

Winnie had the BEST time celebrating Read Across America at Good Hope Elementary School this week! 📚❤️

We were so honored to read Billy and Blaze to the third graders. The students were so engaged and loved following the sweet friendship and adventures between a boy and his horse — it was the perfect story to share! What a special way to celebrate the joy of reading together! 🐴✨📖
