Where horses and humans connect
We rescue and rehabilitate horses who need help and a home, offering them a way to heal and connect with people.
What’s happening at Happy Dog Ranch?
In honor of Thanksgiving season Happy Dog Ranch would like to bring you the unlikely story of one of our family members that suffered a horrible injury as a newborn calf, one that left her with only 3 hooves. Witness the journey of Reo the calf and how Happy Dog Ranch is helping to put her on the road to recovery. Visit happydogranch.org to donate and help animals being rescued everyday get a second chance at life!!!!! #happydogranch #coloradogives2025 #cows #cowstory #hopeforreo

Our herd
When we connect with horses, we become better at connecting with ourselves. Meet our herd…
Why horses?
Horses have sensitive autonomic nervous systems and a natural desire to seek connection. They offer us opportunities to learn vital skills like listening and being present, clear, honest and aware of what’s happening in our bodies and minds.
As our skills improve, horses feel safe in our presence and trust us. And the lessons we learn in the herd can help us thrive in our relationships and daily lives.
A growing body of scientific research supports the physiological and psychological benefits of working with horses.
