THE PHOENIX PROJECT

This workshop project is dedicated to Phoenix whose life was dominated by fear and severe abuse. When he came to Silent Voices he had been beaten into partial blindness and was deeply injured on many levels. He had been living under horrific circumstances and his fear based behavior was extremely dangerous. After several months of rehabilitation and healing, Phoenix was eventually placed in a retirement sanctuary where his exposure to humans remains minimized to his basic care.

What is a “rescue horse”?

A rescue horse is an unwanted horse facing an uncertain future at best.

Over the past almost two decades Silent Voices Rescue has saved hundreds of horses and has gained a high level of recognition and support. Based on our experience, it became clear that the number of horses in need of rescue is endless and sadly, no rescue efforts seem to be enough.

Our primary goal is to address this challenge by sharing our unique way of working “with the horse”. We teach horse owners the necessary skills to tackle challenges themselves. We aim to provide a new way of seeing the horse and sharing ways to communicate with kindness, respect and trust as a foundation.

This in itself will create the relationship with our horses that we all search for, and reduce the number of horses in need of saving.

SILENT VOICES offers Equine Communication Workshops worldwide.
