Meet Dominique, a mini therapy horse with a mission to bring smiles to all!

Emergency: Your Help Is Urgently Needed

Recently Dominique experienced a life-threatening bout of colic which required emergency surgery and a one-week stay in the Critical Care Center at the New Bolton Center for large animals in Kennett Square, PA. It was touch and go for a while, but we are happy to report Dominique is on the mend.

Dominique received excellent care at New Bolton. However, we now need to cover more than $10,000 of medical expenses. 

If you visit Dominique’s Mission page you will see the pure joy he brings to others, especially sick children. To help with this need a GoFundMe page has been established. Your donation now, in any amount, will go towards these expenses so Dominique can continue his mission of love when he is fully recovered.
