Canyon Oaks Ranch

I have nothing but praise for Kate and her caretaker Enrique!! My horse, Tu'saan, has lived there for 2.5 years. At the time that my vet referred me to CRO, he had suffered a hoof fracture that went from the toe to the coffin joint. The good news is that he has made a complete recovery which I attribute to Kate's excellent care. She keeps in close contact with my vet and farrier ensuring that all his needs are met. The setting at CRO has also played a part in Tu'saan's recovery and now his overall well-being. It is a tranquil setting - so beautiful! I can honestly say my horse has never been more content. It is a place where a horse can be a horse. more

If your horse needs a rest, per vets orders or just for your horse's well-being, send them to Canyon Oaks Ranch. I have sent two of my horses to the ranch, one for medical reasons and the other for a little vacation. Kate the owner is professional, organized and runs the horses supplements/veterinary instructions in the manner of a hospital operating room. Kate has the horses best interests at heart, follows the veterinary orders to a tee and is present for all farrier work and veterinary visits. No alfalfa cubes here, only the best bales of hay and grain for the best equine nutrition. And, since the ranch is atop of the mountain on the Ortega Highway, the drive is scenic, relaxing and after arriving, you can visit with a burro, goats and if Kate is in the kitchen, maybe have a soothing cup of coffee or tea. A wonderful place for your horses. more
