List of Farriers (Horse Shoers)

George, Retha, Bob & Kelly invite you to board your horse(s) with us.
  • 100 acres of pasture; all cross-fenced.
  • Horses are rotated to a different pasture every 2 to 3 weeks. 
  • Pastures are fertilized yearly. 
  • Rent is the same charge each month.
  • Tack and grain room available.
  • We deworm on a regular basis.
  • Stalls are available for horses that are injured or ill.

Boarding Requirements/Info Needed:
Current Coggins Test
West Nile Virus Vaccine
Have they had their yearly shots?
When was the horse last dewormed?
Has the horse been in a stall environment?

Please add "Boarding" in the subject line of your e-mail. 

NOTE:  The board is due on the 1st.  A $20.00 late fee is added after the 10th of the month.

NOTE:  We ask that we be given a 30-day notification if you decide to move your horse. If the horse is moved during the month or moved to a facility for temporary training, we will not refund any monies to you. If the horse is sold during the month, we will not refund any monies to you.

  • Vet day services:  Our facility does not charge any fee to "hold your horse" for the vet. You do not need to be here for this annual event.  
  • General services:  Spring vaccinations (5-way shot), regular deworming (rotating schedule), eye care, hoof care/abscesses, applying medicine and shots at a minimal cost to you.
  • Mineral (Perma-Guard added - fly control) vitamin supplements, and salt blocks are provided.
  • All pastures are mowed, dragged, reseeded, sprayed for weeds and fertilized. Horses are rotated every 2 to 3 weeks. See "The Cardiovascular Workout" for details on the pastures.
  • Horses are in a winter dry lot.....that is if there is such a thing. Missouri weather is goofy. Hay is fed 1 to 3 times per day. The horses are usually turned out in April to the pastures (depends on  the weather and time when fertilizer is applied).
  • 90% of our hay is stored inside and it is fed differently (hay bunks) – much healthier for the herd. They are not your typical round bale hay feeders. Check out the hay bunks at "The Extras". Some hay is thrown on the ground.
  • Cookouts/BBQ
  • Outings to other places to ride (Eagles Ranch, Panther Creek, Pineville, Knobnoster,
    Poosey, Shawnee National Forest, Smithville, Mingsville).  
  • Moonlight rides. Many folks have never ridden in the moonlight - a must for all trail riders.
  • Check out the 2007 updates at Sitter Downs Horse Boarding.
  • Check out the trainer, Marvin Thomey.  Marvin works with you and your horse.

Use this on your cats and dogs.

We have been using Perma-Guard and have found it very effective against ticks, fleas and  flies.  We are currently feeding it to all of the horses by adding it to their mineral. When it is ingested it passes through the intestines and is deposited in the stool. When flies land on the stool or lay eggs, it lacerates the body of the flies and kills the larvae. Dust your barn and pets; kills ticks and fleas. 

If fed individually, add a cup of Perma-Guard to 2 lbs. of feed. The "official" directions are 2% of dry weight, or 1 cup daily. This regimen should allow your animal to become worm and parasite free. As the product is all natural, if per chance they are overfed, they will either not eat it, or eat it and pass it out. Which is one of the benefits of the product anyway. When they pass it out in their droppings, it kills the flies, or other insects that land on it. You can also use the product as a "dusting" mechanism by applying it to the animal directly and also dust your stalls/barn. It can be applied wet by mixing 1 or more cups of powder with water and applying by a pump sprayer (ensure you shake the sprayer frequently). Using this method, the powder will not be effective until it dries.

It can be used in your yard, garden and on your flowers. Any insect that comes in contact, even for a split second, will die. It works by lacerating the exoskeleton and the insect dehydrates to death.

We have used this product for years with excellent results!

This product is excellent for healing cuts and easy to use. George doctored a mare that had a severe cut on her hock and was ready to be "put down"; the owner had spent over $2,000 on vet bills. The proud flesh kept coming back. She brought the mare to him. The mare healed up (after 2 months of consistent application). We wish we would have taken pictures of her injury. This unique medicine has made us a believer. We have it in stock. Our charge is $25 per bottle or you can order it from underwoods.com.
