Smart, stunning, and therapeutic, horses can be wonderful companions. So much so that many retirees and active adults have gone all in on the equestrian lifestyle. Whether rescuing and rehabbing, providing daily care, training, riding, competing, or simply spending quality time together, life with an equine can be incredibly rewarding.
