Windsong Arabians (R)*, Frederick County, Maryland

Services/Facility

In addition to our lighted indoor arena, we have a lighted outdoor arena 90 X 150. The indoor is sand and the outdoor is stone dust with some sand. We also have trails... it takes about an hour to walk the entire perimeter of the woods. We also have a small round pen and a standard round pen.

    There is a shed in each field and paddock (except for the corral in front of the rental house.)

     We have lockers for your "things", (first come, first serve) and 2 tack rooms  (one in the upper barn for stall boarders and one in the lower barn for field boarders). They are heated slightly in the winter to protect the leather.   Stall boarders may have one tack box in the aisle.

     There is a tack up shed for field boarders. Stall boarders may also use the tack-up shed.

              Come spend your Time in the Saddle with us!!

You can bring your mare to us when she is due to foal..we'll monitor and make every

effort to ensure that she foals with help.

Sales: We sell young stock...usually before they are even weaned. Occasionally we get information on arabs available for sale.

A lease is $200/month and includes all expenses except your outfit. A lease is a great way to own a horse without having to purchase one. Leasing gives you the opportunity to decide if owning a horse is a commitment that you really want.

Stalls are 12 X 12 without a window, or 10 X 12 with a window. Flooring is unique 2X4 locust boards on end every 2 " separated with crushed stone. The entire system sits on top of a larger stone base. This system allows for drainage and minimizes need for large amounts of ammonia/bacteria laden bedding. Bedding is saw dust. The horses stand or lie on 4 inches of wood, one of the softest types of flooring. Floors are level as horses can not dig past the boards. There are no bowls in the middle from cleaning out urine spots. No twisted ankles or thrush here.

All stalled horses are handled twice daily to be led into or out of their stalls. We turn-out daily, weather permitting. Turn-out includes grass pasture or corral with hay. We do not bring horses in due to rain! We do not blanket. Blanketing is up to the boarder, if desired. We are not responsible for horses that become wet or cold due to a blanket malfunction. We are not responsible for horses that lose boots, fly masks or any other equipment placed on a horse. We do not turn horses out with halters left on! If a halter is left on by a boarder, it must be a breakaway!

Field boarded horses are grained daily. This allows us to monitor changes in behavior (off feed) and to identify any major wounds or unsoundness. We are not responsible for not noting any wounds, cuts, abrasions or abnormal discharges. We make every attempt to monitor the health and soundness of each horse on a daily basis. Field boarded horses are turned out to pasture when ground conditions are appropriate and grass is of sufficient length. Otherwise, field boarded horses are confined in the corrals or sacrifice areas and given hay.

Field board is $230 / month. Space is limited. Stall board is $395/month

For information or availability, please contact us!!

We have several horses available at this time for lease and others may become available. Students and current leasors are given first priority to lease or change the horse that is leased.
