PSEC offers two stall barns, a 65X105 indoor arena with mirrors , lights and GGT fiber footing, a upper outdoor arena with River sand, a second large outdoor arena with GGT fiber footing, Grooming stalls with fans, cold wash area, onsite management so your horse NEVER gets snowed in without care, and more. We are not renters, so there is no worry if our lease will run out or if the owners will sell it out from under us. We host to approx. 25 boarded horses, yet are able to give each horse individual daily attention and care. A majority of our boarders attend UK and Midway. Boarding options all can be personalized based on your specific needs. We dedicate our days to making sure the horses have accessible food and water even in heavy winter storms. Our horses do spend most of the time outside as we believe it helps keep a horse happy and healthier. The property has cameras throughout and is well watched over.
Training and lessons are available through Snappdragon training.
FULL CARE with grooming stall $400
Full care horses are typically kept close to the front of the property near the barns. Fields are mostly plank with some electric in select areas. Most of our full care fields have 2-4 horses.
Horses are brought in as requested to await farrier or medical care. Blanket changes are done morning and evening upon request. We do not offer daily in and out care unless during a medical emergency. Our stalls are mostly used as a personal grooming and storage area and during emergencies.
All boarded horses are checked on daily. Blankets can be changed by request,as well as holding and scheduling for vet and farrier,. Full care horses will have burrs removed from manes and tails at least 3 times a month. Square Bales or round bales are required in all fields during winter months and will be billed to each boarder accordingly.
As most boarding facilities, we do require a 30-day notice (to start on the first of a month only) to cancel a contract and move your horse or to change your boarding option.
