I'm giving Pusch Ridge 5 stars but would give them 10 if I could!…read moreMy husband and I went on the hour and half Sunset ride and it was amazing! We are both experienced riders and went with a group of people who had a variety of experience. The trail was on varied terrain, up hills and down into a small canyon, all in the beautiful Catalina State park. Our guide didn't talk too much and since it was couples she let us us talk amongst ourselves which was nice. She made sure everyone was having a good time and that the group was staying together. She also gave a little bit of history on one of the historical sites in the distance. The stables themselves are very nice and everything is really well taken care of. The horses are extremely well taken care of and are not overworked. They have shade when resting between rides and even a small snack. The owner lives on site and really cares about the comfort of her guests and makes sure you are given a horse to match your experience level. I can't wait to to go again, thank you Pusch Ridge!!!

All the horses were well behaved and well-groomed. The staff picked appropriate size and temperament horses for each rider. Ample instructions were carefully given to each rider. We purchased the 1 hour trail ride since all were novice riders. The trail offers great views of the Catalina Mountains. An hour was just long enough. Everyone was happy with the riding experience. The stables are conveniently located just east of Oracle Rd.

We are fortunate to have Elizabeth Poulin in Southern Arizona at Amado Equine Hacienda. Trailering…read morein to ride with Elizabeth has been very positive for my horse and I. We have competed successfully through the Grand Prix, yet, working with Elizabeth has led to significant improvement. I believe we have improved all aspects of our work because of her educated eye and depth of knowledge about gymnasticizing exercises to develop horses correctly. I have watched Elizabeth teach a variety of horses and riders. She definitely has the best interest of the horse and rider as her central focus. She provides exercises that lead to improvement without creating negative tension in the horse or rider. This is a gift as a teacher and coach that I have rarely encountered. Bobbi and Gus have a lovely facility and provide a welcoming atmosphere. I definitely recommend Elizabeth and Amado Equine Hacienda. I am looking forward to taking my young horse for lessons as well as continuing with Corey. Debra Haber

We had previously purchased a horse in May 2014 from Linda and Laura and he was wonderful. We were…read moretold we could bring him back if he did not work out. We still have him to this day We had such a great experience and felt confident that we would get the same by going back to them when we decided to purchase another horse. We went back and as we were making the deal the horse acted funny and we were promised that if he didn't work out we could bring him back. He was just having a "horsey moment" Due to our previous experience and being told "You can always bring him back if he does not work out" we went ahead with the purchase. We had issues with the horse and attempted to work with him and these issues never resolved, so we contacted Laura and were told we would have to pay boarding fees while they tried to sell him and we waited for them to find another horse that would work out. We then decided that we would keep him at our place and take him back once they found us another horse to trade him out for. After several months had passed and no contact from them unless we called or texted. and then it was we are still looking. we decided to sell the horse. When a prospective buyer had the horse checked out by a vet we were told that the horse had Navicular Pathology and has had it for at least a year. We sent Laura an e-mail offering a chance to make this right and still have not heard anything back. we will no longer recommend them as we used to. we used to think very highly of them not any more!!
