Equistride International Dressage

Flying changes, half-pass, even a little piaffe and passage aren't only for professionals or Olympic-caliber riders. With the right horse you can learn intermediate and advanced Dressage movements. You can experience collection, self-carriage, engagement and extensions. A horse who is suitable in physical size, including size of gaits, temperament and training can be the partner you have been waiting for.

When considering a new horse for you, we evaluate all relevant issues - how often you can ride, your availability of instruction, turn-out possibilities and any other stable management requirements. We then discuss your options.

Once you choose your horse, we are available to coordinate all travel and quarantine arrangements:

• We offer a "get to know your horse" period at our stable.
• We receive the horse from the shipper and monitor any health conditions that me be caused by travel stress.
• We develop a management program for you and your horse which includes proper shoeing, dentistry, vaccinations, turn-out, and training suggestions. We want you to get off on the "right foot".

Next, we encourage input from your trainer, farrier, veterinarian, and stable manager in order to best prepare your horse for his new life. We are available for consultation at any time throughout the ownership period of your horse.

If you outgrow your horse, or decide as some point that you want a different one, we can help you find the right home for the horse you have and help you find a suitable alternative.
For advanced riders and professionals, we are able to find horses with extraordinary talent. Tell us exactly what you like and we will put together a collection of horses in the United States and Europe to choose from.
