Dental day for Truffles. Hence the reason we need ALL the support for Rising Star Riders. Please consider a donation to help with the routine expenses for our very special therapy horses and pony. We cannot do all the fantastic things for our students without the healthy horses. Donations accepted at Venmo, PayPal, Zelle (661) 821-0200 and currently with Give Big Kern. You can find our donate button at www.rsriders.org. We appreciate all the support. The average cost for dental is $500-800. Any 💵 help. ❤️🐴
