LET US HELP YOU
SELL YOUR HORSE!
We have lots of
buyers out here each month looking for horses to buy. We
have an arena, round pen, and plenty of trail riding space to let the
potential buyer try out our horses. We are available to show
horses during the day, afternoon, or evening, and on weekends, while
you may be at work or too busy. For a small consignment fee, we
will bring your horse here and do all the work to get it sold for
you. All you do is wait on your check to arrive in the
mail! If your horse needs a tune-up, we will be glad to do that
as well. We feed twice a day, have a barn with stalls, a lean-to
shelter in the pasture, offer free-choice hay & salt blocks, and
will take excellent care of the horses while here. I will have to
evaluate your horse first before I bring it to our ranch to make sure
it is something I feel comfortable selling to others. Contact me for more information. |

Training
Hill Country Horses
is now accepting outside horses for training! People
have been begging us for years to help them with their horses but we
have only trained or tuned up the horses that came in on consignment
for us to sell. We have finally accepted a
few horses and it has worked out well, so we are now adding it as a
service we offer. Here's why:
Have
you taken your horse to a trainer and they only ride your horse in a
round pen or arena, or just on the property at the stables? That is what the majority of trainers do,
since they have so many horses to ride. Get
one out of the stall,ride it for 30 minutes, put it back in the stall,
on to the next horse. Well, that is great
for breaking colts, or putting a handle on one, but the since they are
only exposed to an arena enviroment, they can be scared or spooky once
taken off property, or going down the trail. That
is where we come in!
Yes, we have a round pen and an arena,
but I find spending too much time in there is boring, for me and the
horse. We love to train on the trail, and
expose the horses to everything. We also
ride them around our neighborhood, where we will encounter barking
dogs, passing traffic, water crossings, kids on bicycles, and much more. Then, if that isn't enough, we haul them with
us to barrel races, riding them in the busy parking lot, and also in
different arena's. We also belong to a
Team Penning club, so we can start your horse on cows!
We
trail ride frequently, and live 15 minutes from Parrie Haynes Ranch
where there are 5000 acres of trails. When
training on the trail, I will make sure your horse will be confident
enough to ride out alone, or with a group of horses.
In the group, they will ride in all
positions....in front, the middle, or at the back.
Some horses feel they HAVE to be in the lead. I can fix that! Does
your horse get antsy and impatient if the other horses get too far in
front of him? Does he want to buck, rear,
or prance? Does your horse pin his ears
and kick out at other horses on the trail? Don't put a red ribbon on
his tail! Fix the problem!
Ok,
so your horse needs a tune up, needs to be de-sensitized, needs to be
hauled and exposed......what do we charge?
$500
a month (you pay for feed, hay, and any
extra expenses your horse incurs while here, like feet trimmed, etc)
