    Default Horse Retirement Va or Md

    I am looking for a horse retirement farm in Va for my two 27 yr old gelding, lesson horses. I would love pasture board with shelter and lots of grass. They are used to living out. The one gelding needs to get senior feed and they have to stay together. Any suggestions or experiences?

    A friend sent her horse here years ago. She has visited several times over the years, and has been very pleased.
    Some riders change their horse, they change their saddle, they change their teacher; they never change themselves.

    It's near Winchester. You won't find a more wonderful place than this. All my future horses will be retiring there.

    I know! That's why it was so funny! Great minds think alike.
