Beginner Level

• Drive around your city, community or town and admire any horses you may find.

• Give yourself the opportunity to “meet” one up close and personal. Either through a neighbor, farmgirl, or local riding stable or boarder.

Intermediate Level

• Research a breed. What did you discover about its origin and history?
• Read “The Soul of a Horse,” by Joe Camp. Also check out his website at www.thesoulofahorse.com

Expert Level

• Research horse rescues in your area.
• Donate 5 hours to the care of a horse, either at a local stable, or neighbor, or with a farmgirl, learning all the ins and outs of caring for the animal.
• Once you have located a horse rescue, get involved. Let us know how you chose to make a difference in the life of these amazing animals or those that care for them.
