Hooves for Healing was founded in 2020 as Loscutoff Equine Rescue and grew from rescuing horses to providing equine-assisted programs. Riding instructors have over 40 years of combined experience. The program’s mission is to connect horse and human through compassionate teachings and shared experiences, with a focus on healing lives that have been damaged and creating a sanctuary where both horses and humans can thrive. The organization currently has five rescue horses involved in therapeutic programs and follows a philosophy that both horses and people can rescue each other. Testimonials include the statements, “Horses are the tonic the human soul craves” and “I’ve often said there’s nothing better for the inside of a man than the outside of a horse.”
