Does anyone know of retirement barns in western/central MA? I’m southwest of the Quabbin Reservoir in Hampshire County and have done quite a bit of searching on Google, FB, and the forums but just thought I’d ask here as well. I’ve found a few places but they’re a bit farther than I’d like, ideally wouldn’t be too far so I can check on her once/twice a week.
The horse is a 14 y/o OTTB mare, barefoot, no soundness issues or anything that requires medical attention/medication. Does best with lots of group turnout, can be 24/7 with run-in shed, and free choice hay (prior issues with ulcers). However, I am a little bit of a stickler about fencing, prefer it to be solid. Electric is fine if used in conjunction with some kind of solid fencing but no wire/cord on its own.
For anyone else in the area, does this sound realistic at all? I’ve never really boarded at any retirement facilities so a little new to this.
