How a Herd of Miniature Horses Provides Comfort and Healing

In the rolling hills of central Pennsylvania, there is a place where miniature horses offer comfort and healing to people of all ages and backgrounds. This place is called Whispering Willow Ranch, and it is home to a herd of over 50 miniature horses.

The ranch was founded in 2005 by Debbie Schaeffer, a former special education teacher who has always had a love for horses. Debbie started the ranch with just a few horses, but it quickly grew as she began to share the healing power of these amazing animals with others.
