About
Story
Those who teach us life lessons are not always humans. Horses have always been a part of Dina's life, thanks to her mom, who ensured she was given every opportunity to work with them. Most days, if Dina is not working with horses, she is wishing she was.
​
Horses don’t judge, they don’t gossip and oddly enough they have a special way of helping you work through life’s problems. Growing up with horses taught Dina responsibility, independence, how to care for others and the value of hard work. Her wish is that every kid could be as lucky as her and grow up around horses.
​
Horses gave Dina everything and she feels it is her duty to repay them by telling their story so that everyone can understand their purpose, appreciate their beauty and respect their relationship with mankind.
