Buttons Has Her Day

"Buttons Has Her Day" is the story of Buttons as she discovers what her purpose is. About CTR and Herd Adventures:
Established in 2003, Chesapeake Therapeutic Riding (CTR)'s mission is to deliver healing and learning to individuals and groups whose minds, bodies and spirits will benefit from the transformative connection between people and horses. Since our first rider held reins in 2005, CTR has served thousands of residents of Harford County, MD, and the surrounding areas. Regardless of our clients' ages, CTR uses horses and horse-related activities as a means to provide adaptive recreation and educational activities to children and adults who live with diagnoses and disabilities, at-risk youth, and veterans. Our certified staff and trained volunteers are dedicated to serving people through a variety of Equine Assisted Services: Adaptive (Therapeutic) Riding Lessons, EAL (Equine Assisted Learning), and Horse Powered Learning (educational activities that are unmounted). We are a Premier Accredited Center of PATH International, the Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship, and a Horse Discovery Center as designated by the Maryland Horse Industry Board. Our herd of gentle horses is at the heart of the work we do at CTR. They come from varied backgrounds and experiences and are all uniquely gifted for the work they help us do, as we help people. These are some of our horses' stories, and we hope you enjoy reading them as much as we enjoyed writing them. Any proceeds from the sale of these books will go back into CTR programming and herd care--so we can continue to deliver healing and learning to individuals and groups whose minds, bodies and spirits will benefit from the transformative connection between people and horses.
