... hi Also ask if you can talk to past boarders, or clients. Ask current & past boarders how long they've been there and why they stay. |

... Yes, talk to as many current boarders as you can. Also, if you can, stop by the facility without an appointment. I have had several boarders do this to me, and while it threw me off guard, it is the best way to see what its like in everyday life- see how dirty the stalls get before they are cleaned, etc. This way, nothing is sugercoated to the potential client and they can see better if the barn is really what they are looking for. |

... These tips are great but when you don't have much to choose from,you just have to deal with it as best as you can and keep looking. In my area there are limited places to broad your horse. One is great at this and the other is good at that then it comes down to distance to it. My horse was treated better at one when it came to being turned out but lost alot of weight,where he is now he doesn't get taken out in the pasture just in a dry lot but he is fed well... So what do you do? HELP |

... I just moved Daisy to a new place yesterday. I'm nervous about, but thenew place is much safer and the arenas are MUCH better than the old one, plus my trainer moved there about a month ago and likes it. I'm keeping my fingers crossed! |

Working with horses is time intensive with much of the work being done without a lot of help. Check out Top Ten Timesavers in this month's Stable Management (the link will open in a new window)!
