Hero Story: J.T. Welsh

I’m currently Active Duty Navy and served overseas. I got introduced to the amazing program by my Chief. I was so excited to see what it was about. As a recovering alcoholic with several mental health issues I was seeking any type of relief.

Today is the day, first day at the farm, very excited and nervous. I remember pulling up and my soul, body and mind filled with joy. 

I got paired with Captain and instantly fell in love with him. Working with him made me forget about everything and live in the moment. 

The next time I visited the ranch it was time to ride. The minute I got on Captain, I was free! I was at peace! I was living on top of the world!

I’m so grateful to have found this program. When I leave the ranch, I feel invincible and ready to face what the world is ready to throw at me.

Thank you, Saddles in Service, for freeing me.
