NOT
AVAILABLE DURING FOALING SEASON
Due to popular demand, we are now offering consignment
sales for our clients. Selling a horse can be a dreaded
experience for some riders who don’t have the time or required
resources to get the job done on their own. Work schedules, lack
of safe riding facilities and even privacy concerns are some of
the many reasons our clients choose to consign horses. Consigning
allows our clients freedom from worries like no-show potential
Buyers, missed work, and rider liability. Jarred Langston is a
talented rider and trainer who prides himself on his ability to
match suitable horses and riders. We take our time with each
prospective buyer to ensure that matches are well made. Be sure to
check out our references.
In summary, the seller sets a price for which they will sell the
horse and when the horse is first moved to our facility we work
with the horse to get to know the horse. If the horse passes our
evaluation, we continue our process of marketing and selling. We
take photographs, produce a sales video, and advertise. We
advertise through our website and we also utilize other channels.
We also let our extensive list of clients know horses are
available, through email, and by making phone calls. Horses are
usually up for sale within 30 days from moving into our barn,
depending on the horse and situation. See below for the list of

DISCLAIMER: We hope to be in business for many more
years (actually, we're hoping for many generations), so we reserve the
right to refuse representing dangerous or unsuitable horses. We are
practical people and realize the fluke occurances happen. We also
understand the nature and psychology of horses. That said, we are
qualified to make the final determination of suitability and reserve the
right to do so. We can not stake our reputation on horses who don't suit
our program. We will do everything in our power to evaluate fairly and
give your horse the best possible opportunity to find a new home, but we
cannot make guarantees.
