Operation Hold Your Horses Rescue

It’s all about community and education.

Our Mission

To meet a large growing need for rescue services in Connecticut. To develop Educational and Equine Assisted Learning programs, which partners rehabilitated equines with children and their families, elderly, first responders and Military Veterans current and former members.

A Mission Founded By…

Jennifer Smith, local Retired Military Veteran. Jenn started this organization with teaching others horsemanship as one of the main focuses. Her love for horses and teaching children over the last 30 years has led her to this venture. Our lessons make a huge difference in the lives of equine at risk right in our own community and all over the country. It doesn’t get much more gratifying than knowing you are helping to care for our rescue horses, and all while supporting the community through Equine Assisted Learning Programs.
