Introducing Dr. Richard Houck


Photo by Dick Bacardi

Dr. Houck is the retired veterinarian for Ringling Brothers Circus.

He started the Elephant program where they've had better success with new calves than in the wild...with exception of India.

With his wife Janet, the Houck's have been breeding miniature horses for over 28 years and love introducing new people to this magnificent animal.

The miniature horse is like a potato chip, you can't eat just one. Once you meet them you will get hooked.

They are for the young children, the retired horse person, the horse crazy person and most importantly the handicapped, both physically and emotionally.

Miniature horses can make an enormous change in a person and it will always be positive.
Dick has had years of experience bringing facts and truth to how animals are kept happy and healthy so can bring joy and education to many.

He had the honor of friendship and working partnership with the man considered world wide as the finest animal trainer ever: Gunther Gebel Williams The Houck's love Good Neighbor Law, and use its many resources daily.
