Miss Me Not Farm boards horses on the private McCleary Ranch in Washoe Valley, a property that has run pasture and stall boarding since 2001.

Cara Kaufer founded Reno Rescue in Verdi in 2010 to combine horse rehabilitation with riding instruction for people of all abilities.

Barbara Flanagan’s farm holds horses in eight barn stalls with attached paddocks, in 26 private paddocks from 50 to 150 feet with three-sided shelters, and in pastures and dry lots. […]
Water does much of the work here. A 46-foot pool holds a 10-foot treadmill with jets, so horses move chest-deep at their natural gaits for low-impact conditioning, and a Nautilus salt water spa runs cold aerated brine over the lower legs for inflammation and injury. An 80-foot Centaur Eurociser exercises eight horses at once, from […]
Retired racehorses do the work at this Carson Valley charity, founded in 2014: thirty-nine have graduated its retraining programme and gone to second careers — Copper Halo rehomed within a fortnight to a jumping barn, Invertigo, 47 starts and over $108,000 earned, now a lesson horse at a nearby equestrian centre. Those that stay join […]
