Frequently Asked Questions

What do you require prior to my horse’s arrival?
The following items need to be returned (filled out and signed) prior to boarding. (Please make a copy of all signed documents for your records).
Current Vaccination certificates
A signed liability waiver form or a signed pasture boarding agreement
A signed stall boarding agreement
A check for your first month's rent
What is included in my board package?
As a part of the board package you are entitled to use of the barn facilities, the riding ring, basic feed twice daily, daily stall cleaning and the use of the exercise pastures and general recreational riding as described in these FAQ's and Pricing pages. All watering is included in your package.
What shots and vaccinations do you require?
Check with your vet for additional vaccinations, but you must, at a minimum have West Nile, Rhino and Coggins. Your horse should be wormed. Other treatments may be indicated for our area (Eastern Washington).
What do you require of my horse after their arrival?
Your horse should be freshly trimmed or shod, teeth floated (if necessary), regularly bathed and cared for.
What is your feeding program?
We feed to your specifications. IF you have special supplements that you want fed to your horse please bring them in with you when you come. Supplements and feeding schedules must be specified in the boarding agreement. We will not buy and resell supplements or any special food beyond the hay that we feed here. We feed a timothy/alfalfa/orchard grass mix at 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM every day. Please contact our barn staff if you have questions.
What if I am to be gone for awhile and need additional care for my horse?
We can turn out your horse for you for additional exercise when you are gone. Please talk to our barn staff before you leave, and establish an exercise schedule for your horse.
Do you have farrier or veterinary services available at the ranch?
We will recommend a local farrier or vet for you to use if you need one, but we do not retain that level of staffing on site.
Do you have trailer parking and wash stalls?
We can not allow you to park your horse trailer or rig at Unionville Ranch while you board here. We have one heated wash rack with hot and cold water.
What are your barn hours?
We open at 9:00 AM and close at 9:00 PM 7 days a week. We are closed Christmas day, and may close during the year for special events.
Can I ride your trails when I board my horse at Unionville Ranch?
We are sorry but our current insurance does not allow us to either take out trail rides, nor does it allow free riding on our land. Public road easements are available for riding, and there is a lot of public land close by that is available for riding.
Where will I store my tack?
We have a tack room with basic saddle racks and storage areas, but you may want to bring your own tack box for storage. Sorry, we can not be responsible for the security of your tack while it is stored here.
Are your arenas lighted and heated year round?
The arena is well lit, and heated when necessary.
Can I bring my family and friends with me when I come to ride?
All visitors are welcome as long as they are accompanied by a boarder. If anyone else is going to ride, they must sign the Unionville Ranch liability release. We do not allow horses or riders other than those boarded here to use the facilities.
May I bring my dogs with me?
Your dogs are welcome but they must be on a leash and under your control at all times. If your dog harasses horses or boarders, or runs wild, you will be asked to not bring that animal back to the barn.
