Boarding near Paris KY
Would anyone be willing to recommend a few temporary boarding facilities near Paris KY?
Re: Boarding near Paris KY
Yup.
I've used one on Houston Antioch road (off Paris Pike) for about 5 years.
You have a PM

Re: Boarding near Paris KY
I can recommend both Indian Creek and Columbiana farms. I have used both, my longest relationship being with Indian Creek. IC's entire staff is WONDERFUL. Their office and sales staff are very helpful and supportive, their farm manager is is top notch, and the staff in every barn is excellent with the horses and knows each one personally including their quirks etc. Both farms were recommended to me by a very good friend that's a Hagyard vet. Columbiana also has very good staff and care, the only reason I am more with Indian Creek is that I have them handle all my consignments too so it makes everything easy. The foals come home from IC ready to head to the sales grounds. They walk, stand up square, and are very well behaved. The thing I like best about IC is that they always do what's in the best interest of the horse. It was brutal at KeeNov with freezing temps the last few days. IC got their baths done earlier in the week when temps were warm and hot toweled and blanketed when it got cold. I watched another major consignor bring in mud covered horse after mud covered horse and hose them down out in the open wind (I think the windchill was in the teens), and then put these soaking wet, shivering weanlings in stalls with no walking or scrims to dry them off. IC's staff is made up of long time actual horsemen, many of them still ride and compete in their spare time.
