Help us find the right horses to join our team!

We are hoping to find a horse or two to lease or buy for our lesson program. We know this is a long shot, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

The ideal candidate for lease would be a retired show or rope horse who wants a job to keep their mind and body active, but with much less demand! Our horses are never asked to work beyond their means, and we carefully match the appropriate rider with the horse, considering the rider's energy, ability, and size.

We are open to any breed, gender, and age as long as they meet the following criteria:

Safe, sound (or serviceable sound), and sane. Light maintenance is okay. Thank you for reading! Please PM or post if you have any suitable horses.

For purchase, we are willing to buy a well-broke, stout QH-type horse, 8-12 years old. Our budget is $8,000 if it's a good fit for our program. The horse must be safe, sound, and sane.

Connecting to ourselves and others through horses It’s often difficult to stay ‘present’ in today’s bustling world. Unpleasant situations can interrupt our capacity to exist moment-to-moment. Working with horses can foster that mindfulness we sometimes lack as we interact with the animals in...
