Common questions

Good to know.

Are routine supplements and alfalfa extra?

Routine supplements supplied by owners are administered without a handling fee. Standard forage and feed are included; specialty diets are discussed individually.

Does board include vet and farrier costs?

Scheduling, holding, and routine coordination are included for all boarded horses. Professional invoices are separate.

Are outside trainers allowed?

We often host clinics with outside clinicians, but on a regular basis we encourage clients to take advantage of the on-site training program.

Do I have to be a dressage rider?

No. Our priority is thoughtful, professional care for every horse.
