Boarding Barn Warning

Anzaah · 07-03-2008, 11:21 PM

I just want to let it be known that there is a boarding barn in my area that I do not recommend anyone go to. My horse and my friends horse was severely neglected over the span of 11 months. The Barn owner has made it very clear even after discussing things that this person will not go out of their way to give special feeds or will not seperate the horses for feeding and overall will not work with the boarder no matter what you do. There are at least 4 if not more dominant horses in this herd that will shove every other horse away from the food. Often times boarders horses get very little if any food at all. If you wish to know more, please contact me for the barn name. This place is in the Quad City metropolitan area. For the sake of your horse DO NOT GO THERE! This place may seem like it's decent but it's not. You have all kind of restrictions on when you can come out, when you can ride, you need to schedule a time to ride in the indoor arena and you need to call anytime you plan on coming out. RUN AWAY if you see advertising for this place anywhere! I have links to pictures.

Thank you.
