HORSE BOARDING

Owners of boarded horses are expected to arrange regular exercise for their animals.

No stallions.

Horses are housed in spacious 24' x 48' paddocks of various configurations.  Some are pipe while many include Horse Guard Bi-Polar Electric Tape, the finest bi-polar electric fencing used all over the world.  Box stalls or paddocks of special design may be installed on request.
 

 We are a perfect location for layups, rehabilitation, retirements, as well as horses in regular work!

• FREE:  Occasional turn outs on request. 

• FREE:  Minor veterinary care such as wound cleaning / treatment, giving medications, wrapping legs, etc.

• FREE:  Blanketing / unblanketing

• We live on the property right next to the horses so they are under regular supervision and care.

• Horses are fed near dawn and dusk each day.  Unless horses are on a diet, they receive enough food to last many hours such that it is similar to continuous opportunity to eat.
  
• All paddocks are cleaned regularly so there is little manure build up.
  
• Fresh water for each horse is placed in large containers.  This way we can monitor water consumption, easily clean them, as well as have water available in case of a natural disaster.
  
• You may have your choice of roughage (hay) and amounts to be fed to your horse.  You may also have your choice of concentrates, supplements, and bedding.  All feed and bedding is charged separately at market cost.

Personal tack may be stored in a locked common tack room or privately purchased shed.

Horse trailers may be stored on the property at no extra charge.

Board is $300 / month plus the cost of feed.  10% off for second or additional horses.  Due at the beginning of each month.

The base board fee of $300 a month

Other services such as multiple turn outs / week, longing, exercising under saddle, and rehabilitation programs are available for purchase.

Cost of feed can vary dramatically.  However, an easy rule of thumb is that it will cost about  $150 to $200 a month for hay to feed an average horse.  It can be half of that for a pony and double that for a large horse with special needs.
