Take a Look in the Barn

The horses used for the SPUR program are owned and maintained by the Monmouth County Park System. Most of the horses were generously donated to the program, but a few have been purchased. Each horse that comes to our program goes through a thorough 60 day trial period to determine if he or she is the ideal therapy horse.
