The Social Barn

Sunkist Stables is a horse boarding stable unlike most others.

Historically the horse has brought humans together for competition, commerce and celebration. With a conscious desire to further this function, Sunkist stables endeavors to be a place that is more than an animal storage facility.

A dynamic horse facility with an extra ordinary social dimension. A fun boarding stable and an innovative school for horse training and riding lessons.

Our stable is truly unique in that we are more like a social club than a typical horse boarding facility…

Boarding

Our facilities and care are among the finest in Tucson. Sunkist Stables features a large open layout; several arenas and brown pens; individual locking tack rooms; nice air-conditioned kitchen, bathroom and lounge area, a shoeing area and a medical stocks area.


We have several different stall and Mary motel configurations, such as Barn stalls with ‘ins’ and ‘outs’; box stalls; mare motel pens; covered over-sized hands with covered aisles… Most of these pens are 15 feet wide by 48 feet long!

Riding

Our students (of all ages and skill levels) learn to move in harmony and synchronicity with the horse

They also learn the essence of the horse; how the horse evolved; what are his instincts…

And most importantly, they discover what the spirit of the horse has to offer to us, humans.

Breeding

Our breeding goal is to produce Young horses with correct confirmation and athletic ability; and most importantly such inner qualities as trainability and good dispositions.

Our passion is to create young horses suitable for amateur riders. Our young horses possess natural impulsion and light and elastic gates.

We are always available to help people who would like to breed their mares, We put together a breeding program for them. When it comes time for foaling we do offer foaling services at Sunkist Stables.
