Make sure your horse’s retirement years reward him/her for his/her years of service to you.   Donate him/her to Rardin Ranch and in return your horse will enjoy making a difference in the life of a child.  You will receive a charitable contribution for your generous donation.
Quarter horses make up seventy percent of our eight horse herd whose average age is 21 years old.  Horses must be quiet, safe around children, able to tie, able to be ridden at the walk, trot and canter by a youth, and like treats.  In general, horses from the western and english disciplines are considered.  Gymkhana horses are considered if safe for youth to ride.  Horses receive excellent care and receive lots of attention.  They also have 20+ acres to roam in quiet serene pastures.
