Kody has always been good with kids. While living at a riding school, he taught kids of all ages and skill levels how to ride, jump and compete successfully. This quality made him a faithful favorite of the children he taught.
Kody continued teaching riding lessons for many years, until a cheerful woman named Mary Beth purchased him as a companion for her aging, special needs horse. Mary Beth also volunteered at Hope Reins as a devoted session leader, so she knew about the amazing work the ministry did with kids and horses.
When Mary Beth needed to rehome Kody, she was convinced Kody would be a remarkable partner for the kids and addition to the Hope Reins herd!
If Kody had a theme song, it would be “Stand by Me.” Kody offers loyalty and steadfastness to those who are his herd mates (chosen friends). And, his friendship is well worth earning because his sensitivity makes him an excellent listener.
Many hurting kids have spent hours in the company of this sweet boy who treats his friends as family members. And best of all, Kody keeps all of his conversations private, so you can confide in him with the utmost confidence.
