SALES PREP
Granada Farms yearling program is more than a typical “sales prep” regimen. Young minds and bodies are carefully and professionally developed so that each individual has a head start on the mental and physical challenges associated with breaking, training and performing. Every yearling is handled in the round pen using resistance free training methods resulting in a horse that is confident, mannerly and trainable. Results are indisputable as evidenced by some of our sale graduates!
BOARDING
Granada Farms offers high quality year round care, for horses of all ages and classifications. Breeding and foaling mares are boarded in our roomy 14’ by 20’ lighted private stalls and can be turned out in large, Bermuda grass pastures, in or in half acre private paddocks once they are done for the season.
All horses are fed a 14% pelleted ration developed for us by Gary Potter, PhD., a leading equine nutritionist in addition to alfalfa and coastal Bermuda hay fed twice daily.
Granada Farms also offers management of horses needing lay up time, stallion boarding, weaning of foals, halter breaking and sale prep fitting.
