[glow=red,2,300]{.Welcome to Desert Storm.}[/glow]
Nestled in the mountains high above, sheltered by woodland is the humble abode known as Desert Storm Ranch. The ranch is small and quaint. It is situated on a Storm Ridge and is 50 acres of pure bliss. Desert Storm has a distinct old world feel about it, the place is aged and timeworn. But it is warm and welcoming. The stables and yard are filled with the sound of happy chatter and soft whickers. Paddocks stretch on endlessly with horses grazing and having a romp through. It is a little patch of heaven filled with a warm hearted community of horse lovers and animals. Where all are welcome...
[glow=red,2,300]{. About Us.}[/glow]
Here at Desert Storm we try and offer the best possible care and horses to everyone. We aim to make a promise to all who come here that we will go out of our way to offer the best possible care and attention to our liveries. As well as to give all our clients good quality dealing horses, fit and ready. We do not believe in being deceitful to our customers and that honesty really is the best policy.
[glow=red,2,300]{.Liveries.}[/glow]
There are several packages available at Desert Storm, each is different and offers a range of options for everyone. The list is below and each package named has a basic description of what the package includes as well as price.
Full Livery: This is the biggest and best package possible; also it is the priciest. Your horse will be boarded inside or out, (i.e. in stable or paddock) and will be cared for by our grooms. All the chores will be taken care by the stables. So you only will have to ride and compete your horse, basic exercise will be done by grooms. Animals will be fed two times a day with grains, pony nuts etc. and will always have hay net and fresh water available. They will be turned out once a day for a couple of hours unless kept out; also they’ll have a half hour session in the horse walker. Grooms will groom them daily and bathe them once a week. Mucking out will also is done daily.
Total Cost: $55 per month (i.e. 30 days)
Part Livery: This is a half and half deal, in other words we look after half the chores and you take care of the others. Your horse will be allowed access to a stable or paddock where they’ll live and our grooms will feed and water the animals. You then do everything else; grooming, mucking out etc. Light exercise such as letting out into pasture and sessions in the horse walker are available to part liveries if you wish.
Total Cost: $35 per month (i.e. 30 days)
DIY Livery: This means you will take care of everything. The ranch will only simply rent you the stable or a paddock, as well as use of all the ranch’s facilities. It is fine if you can’t always make it and if you phone in we can tend to your horse for you. But other than that you’re on your own. It is the cheapest package.
Total Cost: $20 per month (i.e. 30 days)
