    These stables are missing the 3 most important things to give a horse a happy live: Freedom, Forage and Friends. I appreciate the care these horses are given, but it is simply not natural for a herd animal to be kept so confined. As others are asking, I would love to see stables that honor the freedom horses need.

      So true, my horse stays with a little herd, at an old farm in an old wooden barn, can touch and sniff with his neighbors and after breakfast they go out in the field to fourage and play together and costs like nothing but are so happy!

      I was thinking the same thing and was going to say that. It is such a poor human concept to think horses are "safe" and better off in their stall. They don't understand how detrimental that is physically and mentally to a horse.

    Lovely stable, but I did have to giggle when in their interview they were talking about having less horses so they could do everything themselves….but didn’t know what was behind one of the doors, in one of the cupboards, and gets his staff to lift the boxes as they are too heavy…. I’d love to see some of the hard working stable staff featured in some of these videos! Without whom, no doubt these yards would look very different!

      Think they were referring to the training/riding and not that actual upkeep of the horses. I don’t see either of them mucking out or grooming but if they’ve got up to 20 to ride per day there wouldn’t be time.

      I can't believe how many people don't realize that this is a temporary show barn for when the horses are competing for a few months during the winter season in Wellington. This is not a year round facility. They travel to other states during the summer and fall and they also have other farms to send the horses to when they are not competing. Also, it is not safe to keep $1,000,000 show horses in turn out 24/7. SO many things can happen!

      It wasn’t super clear but these horse shows only run for a few months every winter. They may have an other home barn with more space etc… Turn out at all during these horse shows is a real luxury, it’s some of the most expensive real estate in North America. Some spend the whole time there while others will only go for a week or 2.

When the most basic thing horses need isn’t there. I would rather have a tiny barn with more land. It’s excess over welfare horses should be allowed to be horses. It’s beautiful don’t get me wrong but it’s not practical at all. I’m sure they are nice people but personally unless obviously there are health reasons. Horses getting out as much as possible is the biggest priority.

      Are you guys familiar with horses in training or elite showing? They very rarely are on turnout, to avoid injury and also for stallions to not be in a herd with others and cause issues etc. Generally horses living like that are excersized often and on a walker everyday etc, they're not starving or missing the flexibility but I'd understand wanting the freedom.

      It's dangerous to turn out million dollar horses with other horses. In Florida, they typically go out over night or very early in the morning because it is too hot, too humid and too buggy in the middle of the day. This is also just a show barn for the horses that are competing. When they aren't competing, they go to another farm where they have pastures and tons of R&R.

    I'm so proud of the equestrians in the comments who are asking for more turnout for horses in these luxury stables and for credit to be given to the staff than ensure the continued daily functioning of such high end places. Fancy and gorgeous means nothing if the horses aren't happy and getting the basic needs of their species met. (freedom, forage, friends). It is a beautiful facility, truly, but would love to see upgrades made to provide, at the very least, access to a minimum 12x18' outdoor run from some of the stalls.

What connects us is our love for horses. None of us on this earth is better or worth more than another, so I don’t care for snobbish attitudes. It may have just come across wrong for me, but I didn’t love this one.

    Beautifully built facility, very visually impressive and luxurious. But not a "home" for horses. Felt very cold, impersonal, and not at all a place you'd go to feel comfortable, at home, a barn you'd just want to hang out at to enjoy being with your horses. I doubt the horses even want to be there. They are clearly focused primarily on using the horses to win competitions and sell their brand. The key was what he said in the office that the "success of my clients and owners are what's most important to me." No thanks. The number one priority should be the horses, their health and happiness. This guy seems to be very happy to be showing off how amazing their place looks on camera. You can tell by his inability to answer basic questions about the facility such as the size of the arena, what's behind doors, the "I don't lift the boxes, my staff does" and "two of my clients purchased him for me" statements, etc., that he shows up to ride a fully tacked up horse and leaves when he's done, with all the actual work being done by others. He never once talked about the horses personalities, his relationship with the horses, etc. It was totally about the look, how successful the horses are, how shiny things are, etc. Just overall very off putting. I wouldn't be surprised at all if these guys reached out to Matt and asked/begged to be featured. I'm so so so so so glad Matt and Jesse put the happiness and health of their horses above everything else. There's nothing wrong with having a beautiful barn, and Matt and Jesse's last home is proof of that! It was gorgeous! And I know their next place will be, too. But their place just felt like a home, a happy place for their family of horses, dogs, and them. It was welcoming, warm, and set up to give the horses the best life possible. All while being beautiful. So yeah, the Wellington barn and it's owner, huge no, big ick, sorry for the horses. Matt and Jesse's barn, life, approach to horses and success: Yes, absolutely, everyday, all day!!

    QUESTION for everyone. I’m super curious to know how North American stables compare to those in Europe. I’m from Canada and live in a city that has tons of horse facilities situated all around, and I have to say, the size of the paddocks I’m used to are about the same (if not smaller) then the ones shown in this luxury stable tour. I’ve competed in both the English and western world and visited quite a few competition barns throughout Canada and US, and the majority of competition barns have similar size turnout paddocks. Sadly, most horses are in their stalls for looooong hours and it’s always bothered me. Anyways, I am curious to know if this is the same across Europe. Would anyone be willing to share their insight and experience?

    • @viceb7

      I'm from Texas so I can't speak for sure for Europe but it seems they're not big on turnout for show barns there either.
