This place is an absolute dump and should be considered the white trash of horse boarding with…read moreextremely poor management, broken fences and water pipes, and couches sitting next to the arena. There is a reason why it is one of the cheaper boarding places in Phoenix, but it really should be cheaper since the place is more like self care and the horses receive the absolute minimum of what is claimed to be offered by management. I never felt comfortable leaving my horses here without seeing them for longer than a day. I had horses get injured and sick here with management never even acknowledging it or informing me of the issues. There have also been horses here that look like they are starving and extremely sick and management never moves them away from the other horses or does anything about it. My horses repeatedly over the summer had the water shut off and got left without water in over 100 degree weather in a boarding facility that has barely any shade and no fans or misters. The management caters to a few boarders who are extremely rude and lazy and contributes highly to the place looking like a dump by constantly leaving trashy obstacle courses and horse toys scattered through the arena. The agreement claims you have an hour to be in the arena but this is including other boarders who claim to be trainers just turning there horses loose in the arena while you ride or leaving them in the round pen for hours without water, while they leave. Even the boarders that claim they get along are constantly talking behind the other's backs. The place is full of drama. I have had stuff go missing off my trailer and harassing messages left on my trailer and when management was informed they simply went and took the tape off and said problem fixed. The manager is an outright evil woman who is only in it for the money. She does not care about putting any money back into maintaining this place and she is never seen taking care of any of the horses or the property. I boarder there for months and only saw her once. And the time I saw her she was threatening me for having my service dog with me on a trail ride off her property. She continued to threaten me even after being informed that the dog was an active service dog and shown his card. And don't believe what they say about scenic trail ride areas, your sent into a rock pile of a mountain that has many hobos inhabiting the area. This place should be reported and shut down.

Aldo did a 30 day refresher for our rescue Arab, who was seemingly…read moreunlungable/unmountable/unrideable. He was amazingly patient yet insistent on the result I was looking for and kept every promise he made. I've had just two months of riding lessons with him and Aldo had my horse and I going down the trail in the 30 days we agreed to. Would highly recommend Aldo for training with any horse or person for riding lessons/horsemanship - highly knowledgeable, honest and will do exactly what he says/promises. I'm a beginner - he's provided so much knowledge for myself and my daughter via horsemanship lessons and has been incredibly patient with my learning curve. We couldn't be happier working with him!

I'll explain my issue in detail because I think it's important to understand just how bad it was…read moreand how much progress Aldo made in just 1 visit. I purchased a 3-4 year old mare recently knowing I'd have to put a little training into her. She was barefoot (never shoed), I was told she had not had her back feet trimmed because she would not let the farrier handle them, and the last time they had her fronts trimmed it had "been a fight"... and this is only a 13.1hh horse! Her previous owner had worked with her but made no progress and for that reason just wanted her gone. I myself had helped friends with their large horses who had issues with their back hooves being touched, I've helped them teach their horses to stand still, allow their feet to be touched and I have even helped them twitch a couple horses when needed. But THIS mare would not relax, twitching did not work and she did not just try to pull her feet away (as my friends horses would do) she would actually try to swing her rear towards you and intentionally kick out at you if you reached towards the rears, she'd also attempt to bite you in the back if you tried to handle the fronts. Other than this foot issue she is actually very sweet and has decent ground manners. Her fronts were in bad shape when I got her to my stables so I had a farrier out the very next day. The morning of his visit I gave her some magnesium and a light sedative to help calm her, even with sedatives I had to hold her head to prevent her from biting while he worked on her fronts which she continuously pulled away from him, he said he would try the back feet last because he "had a feeling" she was going to lose it when it came time for the rears, well, he made 1 attempt to pick up a rear hoof and she made it very clear it wasn't going to happen, so once again she went without her rears getting done. I had another trainer come out, he spent some time with her but never even put hands on the rear legs, he actually looked perplexed about how to go about the issue because she kept kicking at him, he said he thought she might have had a bad experience previously because she was abnormally apprehensive, he made NO progress and his only advise was that if I was going to have him come out again that he would like me to ride her for 40 minutes prior to his visit to get rid of some of her energy ($40 down the drain). Then I had Aldo come out, although it seemed everyone else who dealt with her felt like she was a special case and weren't sure how to handle her, he knew exactly what to do. Being that she is a mare with a little attitude, I was glad to see she became comfortable around him pretty quickly and after doing a few exercises she had no issues allowing him to pick up her fronts. By the end of the lesson he was able have her stand free and untied and lift her front feet fairly effortlessly, she would also stand still and allow him to touch her back legs which she had not done before. He had also taught her to "stand" still on command, I wasn't sure she'd remember the "stand" command after his lesson but she has totally retained it and it has come in handy quite a few times since the lesson! She also has continued to allow us to lift her front feet. I was thrilled to have undeniable results after just a single lesson and would highly recommend Aldo for any horse training needs.
