Houston Police Department Mounted Patrol Barn

Really friendly when I took the houston police department citizens academy and when I took my kids and nephew

So much fun! My daughter loves feeding to horses. Make sure you bring large carrots and apples to give the horses.

Had an awesome experience! The kids had a blast. Make sure to bring red Apple's and carrots the love them.

Loved, loved, loved feeding and petting the horses; beautiful creatures, so tame, and well kept. Even caught a glimpse of one teasing anther. Lol

Such a cool experience. You get to see and feed the horses and get a good feel for the facility. Everyone is very nice and welcoming plus the best part is it's free. This would be a great place for everyone especially kids and horselovers!

I really enjoyed visiting HPD mounted patrol, the staff was professional and the horses were beautiful! Bring snacks the horses love apples and carrots.

Have to sign a waiver at the beginning and you have to bring your own treats but other than that pretty cool. Some of the horses can be a bit much but cool nonetheless.

Always LOVE IT here:) we're learning the horses names and individual personalities. Officers are so kind and teach us every time.

This was such a fun event for the kids and us parents. Meet the horses and learn some cool info about them and how they work.

Volunteer - they offer visitation to the public between 12p and 2p. You can bring carrots, apples, etc.to feed. K-9 training center on same property.

Absolutely a wonderful afternoon with my son at the mounted police stables. He had so much fun with the animals. Definately bring some carrots and apples and you will have an amazing Outing!

Great tour! The kids and I really enjoyed learning about the department and seeing and feeding the horses.

This is a great FREE family activity. The staff are very helpful, the horses are precious gentle giants who LOVE visitors! They love peppermints, sliced apples, and carrots sticks. There are usually barn kitties roaming around that love petted also. Horses have allergies too, So PLEASE READ THE SIGNS CAREFULLY before reaching food out to their mouths.a carrot to an allergic horse won't necessarily kill it, but its unfair for the horse to be uncomfortable just because folks aren't paying attention! This place is stroller & wheelchair accessible, there are restrooms on site, its convenient to bring hand sanitizing wipes if you are with someone in wheelchair bc they are constantly rolling over yuckies on the barn floor.

Hidden gem right in the middle of Houston! We brought my 3 year old daughter here for her birthday becuase she loves horses. We were able to feed them and pet them. We had a wonderful time and my daughter got to see "her horsies" up close for the first time. It's completely free but of course donations are accepted and appreciated. Check the website for a list of days and hours available. Saturday is by appointment only, but I highly recommend making an appointment and going on a Saturday. Big Thanks to the police officers of Houston Texas for all that they do protect the great city of Houston.

A great place to take the family! I would suggest bringing extra fruit. We had finished all ours in about 20 min.

Great place to take kids of any age to feed the horse's. If you have young children carrots are the best option as they don't have to get too up close and personal with the large horses. There are a lot of horses in their stalls and the kids can feed and stroke them.
