Silver Valley Riding School

Our sweet boy Graf is retired and living his best life. But if someone out there would love a pasture puff to love on, let me know! Graf gets very little attention, and he would love more grooming and treats lol. He gets along with geldings and mares and is generally low in the pecking order. He would make a great buddy/babysitter and is an easy keeper. Please share with anyone interested. (Graf no longer should be ridden, he has rehabbed from an injury and is pasture sound). This is an off-site care lease opportunity only, but I am willing to help cover the cost of his farrier care.

Horse Helpers NC is coming together! Horses and ponies have been in consistent training, certifications are progressing, paperwork is getting finalized, and the website will hopefully be ready to launch in September! We will be looking for donors, sponsors, and volunteers. If you have any interest in helping us serve the community in this way, please reach out. If a child you love is in need of an equine therapeutic program (autism, ADHD, anxiety), we are starting to compile an interest list.🐴

Circa 1991
I took lessons at a place called Darnestown Valley of Horses in Maryland. No running water or electricity. Horses drank out of a creek. A ton of kids riding a variety of old lessons horses. Sampson was my favorite, and old OTTB. He jumped everything and took care of me. I'm sure the fields we cantered across ba****ck jumping over weeds are now covered in houses.
