Boarding

At Shenandoah River Farm, boarding is customized for each special horse or pony. Your horse will be treated just like I treat my own, with upmost concern, watchfulness and respect.  Grains, supplements, and turnout are individualized for the needs of each horse.  As owner, trainer and manager, I am still "hands on" in the feeding and care process of all the horses on a daily basis, consistently communicating to the owner in regard to his or her equine partner. We will take excellent care of your horse or pony, and you just enjoy coming out to ride!
