Our Story

 At Claiborne farms We work through our rigorous and proven desensitizing program where we expose our horses to tarps, flags, atv’s, on the road in traffic, water, loading & unloading, ranch riding, ranch versatility, team penning, arena and round pen work, bareback, clippers, cross ties, dogs, farm animals and much more.

Are you a customer for us, or are we the place for you to buy your last, next or first horse, is something that you may be thinking right now? Our average customer is around the age of 55. Most of our customers are not experienced horse people and a lot have never owned a horse before. We see lots of people come in that rode horses as kids or young adults but have not ridden in over 30 years. The bulk of our horses are geared toward and suitable for the novice or inexperienced riders. We want horses that have an attitude that will make them part of your family for years to come. We do have some people who are top riders looking for more advanced horses to meet their needs. We try to match everyone up with the proper horse. When coming here or buying from us you need to evaluate who you are as a rider and be honest with yourself! Don’t think of who you once were but just who you are now. Ask some simple questions to yourself… Are you wanting to go slow and easy all the time, get up and go all the time, or a little of both? Are you balanced in the saddle as a rider? How often will you be riding and where? Whether you are a total beginner that’s just starting out, a beginner that has ridden some, a rider who has lost your confidence and needs it restored, or a well experienced rider, we have a horse that will fit your needs and can help you pick out a great fit.

What we want is 100% customer satisfaction and for every horse to be the perfect horse and the dream horse that everyone has always wanted. Now that is what we try for but life is not a fairy tale, and nothing is 100% but we do our best to get as close to that as possible. A very low percentage of our customers have problems with the horses that we sell them. But if any of our horses give you a problem, all you have to do is make one simple phone call and we will work with you to resolve the matter.

Generally, we have an incredible knack for knowing when a horse and person are a perfect match, but if for ANY reason you are not 100% in love with your new horse or pony, we offer a 30-DAY GUARANTEE period and are happy to refund your full payments or exchange your horse or pony if you are not completely satisfied.

We have numerous testimonials and some can be seen on our website that were written to us from customers along with updates that some folks send in too. The sign of success is repeat business and the best advertisement is by word of mouth. We have numerous references, some from repeat customers and people from all over the U.S. that have bought horses from us. We have sold horses that have gone to all of the 48 continental United States, several to Canada and sent a few horses overseas including Germany, France, and Dubai. We look forward to meeting you and helping you join the long list of satisfied customers who have found their dream horse right here at the Claiborne farms.
