Deborah Anderson

  Deborah Anderson's love of horses is encoded in her DNA. Her grandfather was a Major in King's Troop ~ Royal Horse Artillery, St. John's Wood; who retired to breed Arabian Horses. Deborah attended Crabbet Park Equestrian Center, Sussex, UK and gained her B.H.S. Horse Masters and Teaching Diploma. Taylor is her beloved gelding (Crabbet Arabian of course) and she spends most of her "free" time with Taylor. She volunteered to create the CHANGE website in order to benefit and promote the program and is looking forward to maintaining the site and expanding it as the CHANGE organization grows.
 
  

Dana Petersen

  Dana has lived in the Sonoma valley for over 20 years. In addition to being a wife, mother and now a grandmother, her life love has been horses. Riding since she was 7 she has always loved horses and had great compassion for these beautiful creatures. In 2006 she acquired her first rescue horse, Emperor, who was an 8-year-old stallion. Emperor was gelded, received medical treatment, allowed to “be a horse” and of course some good training. Emperor's journey to mental stability, resolving his trust issues has been an extremely rewarding and spiritual journey. You can often find the two of them cantering through the vineyards of Sonoma near her home, often in just a halter!
