M2's Owners Make Special Contribution to Aid Disabled US Veterans
Spring Loaded aka 'Duallie' (like the truck), a seven year old Morgan gelding sired by UVM Springfield and out of Stonemere Caprice and raised at Paradise Morgans in Versailles, KY is now in residence at the Central Kentucky Riding For Hope facility (www.ckrh.org) on the grounds of the Kentucky Horse Park, Lexington, KY, site of the 2010 Alltech World Equestrian Games coming in October of this year. Riding For Hope joins an alliance of equine therapy providers seeking to offer comprehensive equine therapy options to disabled US veterans. Duallie's proud owners, Chris and Janet Morris, donated him to CKRH only after he qualified by passing rigorous suitability tests. For his new job at CKRH, Duallie has begun a ninety day orientation program to prepare him to help a broad spectrum of patients with disabilities ranging from physical to emotional issues. If you visit the Kentucky Horse Park, stop by Riding For Hope and say hello to this remarkable equine caregiver.
