What riders say about Dexter stables

Happy Hooves Wellness

Wonderful place to learn to ride. The coaching, staff and facilities are all excellent and the horses are patient and well trained. I would recommend Happy Hooves for beginners through advanced riders.

★★★★★ Jennifer, Jul 2017

Signature Oak Stables

Top notch equine care and training facility. Easily one of the nicest if not THE nicest training stables in the state. Great program for beginner riders, too! You will be hard pressed to find someone better to train you and your horses.

★★★★★ Natalie, May 2020

Equine Odyssey

I’m watching my daughter in a lesson with Dana as I write this review. We’ve been with Equine Odyssey for a little over a year now, and it’s always clear that every lesson has been uniquely designed with purpose for each rider and their current needs.
