Restoration StationThis is my passion! It is so rewarding to see a horse reunited with their spirit. It requires a very caring, generous, and unselfish person to realize their horse needs help or to take on a new horse that has special needs. And the best news of all ... this is a temporary program! Designed for horses that are what we call “struggling”. After a thorough evaluation, we begin a step by step approach from the ground up to restore wellness in every aspect of your horse's being. These horses most likely have “multiple brokenness” that needs to be addressed and they are not worked or ridden until some balance and comfort are restored. When they are sound and comfortable, we begin a training/riding program that is sort of like physical therapy for your horse. You are especially encouraged to participate in this rehab phase so you will know how to help your horse when they graduate from the restoration program. Restoration can take anywhere from several months to a year depending on the damage that was done before the horse entered the program. We use the folks mentioned on the Resource page if we have a question about the next step so check them out. $750-$900 per month includes everything except unrelated major vet bills. The cost is generally higher at the beginning and decreases as wellness is restored. For example, if a horse is presented with ulcers, the ulcer treatment would increase the price for the first month or so and then decrease over the next few months. If a horse requires hoof trimming every week for the first month to reestablish balance and function then every two weeks and then every four weeks, the price would change. The cost is evaluated on a month by month basis. If you have a horse that might need help, please talk to me about the endless possibilities available to us. Please don't wait, there is no commitment on your part, just ask. |
