“I am thrilled to share my experience purchasing Aslan, a remarkable young horse trained by Jacleen for the hippotherapy program (Stable Friendships) my colleagues and I founded. From our very first interaction, it was evident Jacleen possessed an exceptional understanding of both horses and the needs of clinicians who partner with these majestic creatures to bring their healing powers to those with special needs.
Aslan is not just a beautiful horse; he embodies the perfect balance of strength and gentleness, making him an ideal companion for our patients. Jacleen’s training methods truly shine through in Aslan’s friendly, engaging demeanor and responsiveness. He has seamlessly integrated into our program, providing comfort, support, and laughs to individuals of all ages and abilities.
Jacleen’s dedication to matching horses with the right programs is evident, and I am incredibly grateful for her expertise. The entire process, from choosing the right horse to ensuring a smooth transition into our program, was handled with professionalism and personal care. I highly recommend Jacleen to anyone looking for a well-trained horse for therapeutic purposes. Thank you, Jacleen, for making such a positive impact on the Stable Friendships community and for bringing dear Aslan into all of our lives!”
