Snickers got the first ride in the arena!

Load #1 of sand More coming tomorrow! Finally time for the sand ring to be done!

Looking for an on-property leaser! Tessa is a 21yo QH Arab mare who has successfully competed at 2nd level dressage and proven she’s still got it! Not only is... she a queen in the sand ring but she’s a pleasure to hack alone or with a friend! She can really do it all (no jumping please, she doesn’t particularly enjoy it) I’m looking for someone who is interested in coming out 2-3 days a week and enjoy her. Tessa is located at black river stables, about 5 minutes past the Saint John airport. There is a field to ride in and an arena in the works as well as 20+ acres of trails for you to enjoy, including the river! For more details or any questions please message me

Due to reports of an outbreak of Strangles in Southern New Brunswick and P.E.I., please keep contact with horses to a minimum. For the next month, please touch only horses you are required to touch (i.e. your horse only), especially if you have been at other farms in the past few weeks. Please carefully wash your hands and wash/change clothes after visiting horses. Vets recommend showering between barn visits and doing a complete change of clothes and shoes. Sanitization of... footwear is recommended. Strangles is a very serious equine illness and is exceptionally contageous. It is especially dangerous for young and old horses. Our horses are currently all happy and healthy, thank-you for helping us keep it that way.
