All horses are checked on twice daily. They are fed and watered 3 times daily: morning, afternoon and evening. Their stalls are mucked out three times daily. Horses are turned out to pasture daily for about 3 hours unless otherwise specified. Owners must groom and and exercise their own horses unless previous arrangements are made.

Horses are fed 5 flakes of hay a day (Twice in the morning, once in the afternoon and twice in the evening). Boarders must specify what feed your horses will be fed, this will all be kept on record.

The horses are checked on by vets every other day who live on the premises(and this is included in your boarding fee). When the vet(s) finds something wrong with your horse(s), you will be charged extra for that. The farrier visits the horses every month to be checked out (farrier visits, shoeing and shoes are all included in the monthly boarding fee).

All paddocks/pastures have post-and-board fencing enclosing the horses, with a small electric current running through the top and bottom of the fence which will only zap your horse to give them the message to stay away but they will NOT harm your horse(s). The paddocks also include 2 automatic water troughs and free access shelters. These patures/paddocks are checked monthly to ensure no damage is done to the fencing which could cause injury to the horses.

All stalls are lined with peat moss(yes this is the stuff in your gardens). This is a very expensive stall liner but it is the best and only the best for the horses boarded at Golden Sunset Stables.
