Our Charity is a rehab program for unwanted, neglected dogs that we save from being euthanized. We then train and socialize those dogs to become loving companions for trafficked, abused or disabled children and teens that have been saved and have recovered from a qualified rehabilitation program. They will have the chance to start a new life and a healing journey together. 2-Broken Hearts-Unite.

We rescue and rehome dogs (primarily) from local hi-kill shelters. We focus on but are not limited to special needs animals (deaf, blind, otherwise disabled and seniors). We provide foster homes to start and provide whatever it takes (rehab, medical, training etc) to make sure the animal never ever goes back into the shelter system. We are available to our adopters for the life of the animal, should they need assistance.

The Mission of the Panhandle Humane Society is to provide a nurturing and fear-free environment for the community and its pets in our care utilizing the Five Freedoms model. The Five Freedoms of Animal Welfare: 1. Freedom from hunger and thirst by easy access to fresh, clean water and a diet to maintain health and vigor. 2. Freedom from discomfort by providing an appropriate environment, including shelter and a comfortable resting area. 3. Freedom from pain, injury, or disease by prevention or rapid diagnosis and treatment. 4. Freedom to express normal behavior by providing sufficient space, proper facilities and company of the animal's own kind. 5. Freedom from fear and distress by ensuring conditions and treatment which avoid mental suffering. The Five Freedoms were developed in a response to a 1965 UK Government report on livestock husbandry, and were formalized in a 1979 press statement by the UK Farm Animal Welfare Council. The Five Freedoms have been adopted by professional groups including veterinarians and the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.

HorsePower was co-founded in March 2012 by Carrie Capes and Justin Yahnig to provide creative, inspiring, and challenging therapeutic horseback riding lessons to children and adults with disabilities. In 2013, Horsepower achieved 501(c)3 nonprofit status allowing us to reach more students with a need for our programs. Physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges no longer need to stand in the way of those with special needs who dream about getting into the saddle and making a connection with a special horse. We strive to show our students the horse's power to change us, inside and out! Individualized lesson programs include intake and assessment sessions, groom and tack, groundwork, and horseback riding instruction. We also provide non-disabled riders the extra support they may desire as well as carefully trained, reliable horses and a safe, fun environment in which to learn. Therapeutic horseback riding is a dynamic recreational activity in which individuals with special needs are able to overcome challenges and learn new skills. Communication, connection, and teamwork between the student and their horse offer opportunities for physical, emotional, cognitive, sensory and social growth. Plus, the horse provides irresistible motivation which allows students to achieve more in the saddle than other traditional sports and therapies.
