Natural Horse
Boarding
Natural boarding encompasses the horse’s whole being-physical,
emotional and social-necessities that are natural to their species.
Natural boarding offers full-time turnout satisfying the horse’s
natural need to socialize with the herd and constantly be on the
move.
Natural boarding is designed to encourage movement-strategically
placed feeding spots, varied terrain and watering holes activate
curiosity and keep horses moving. Horses that live in stalls feel
isolated, can become depressed, develop vices and are at a high risk
of developing gastric ulcers, joint and muscular deterioration.
Horses are very social animals and need to be free to be with the
herd and be free to roam.
At
Rivendell Ranch we believe caring for horses is a privilege and
caring them properly is a pure joy. We believe that no matter the
cost, there is no substitute for excellence!
