and many more! If…read moreyou want your kids to learn excellent horsemanship skills, this is the place to go. My daughter has been riding here for six years now and loves every minute of it. So do I! Janette is an excellent teacher who is all about safety first. Her horses are amazing! Most of them are family horses her daughters used for shows. Then there's Sundance, my daughter's favorite, an NMSU retired horse. Why am I adding this? Because your kid won't be on just any horse. She matches her riders with the right horse. On a normal day, there is a diverse group of students. From small ones to adults. Which I think is amazing. Time at her place ranges to about 2 hours and include everything from brushing your horse, saddling, and riding. The riding part is an hour (+-). If your kids love horses beyond the riding part, this is the place you should check out.

Armstrong Equine Service is a world class horse training, boarding, racing and breeding facility…read more From championship horses nationwide, to elite trained horses as far away as Germany, Armstrong provides it all! Located in La Mesa NM, it is an incredible, large facility right in the middle of all the pecan farms / orchards. Acres and acres of pastures, competition arenas, indoor barns for boarding, outdoor boarding, hybrid boarding, cattle pens, ranch houses and bunk houses, this place is huge. They house everything from privately owned horses (like mine), to thoroughbred race horses, quarter horses, lesson horses, trail ride horses, competitive horses and more. Dr Joe Armstrong lives on site, and his sons Josh and Ed, and their sons and daughters and other staff, facilitate everything. From training to care, they do it all. This is the absolute best boarding and/or training facility that you are going to find. Even if you don't own horses, they have plenty for you to do lessons on. Though I see my Bentley Boy almost daily, they are the ones that provide a world class, championship training facility for him. They provide a safe and happy home, daily water, daily stall cleaning, daily feeding, and look how clean he is!!! Yup, they bathed him and he looks incredible! In my absence, they also give him exercise and use him for some training with cattle or trail rides, and even photo shoots! And when I'm not being busy or just a baby because it's a sandstorm, they give me mounted and unmounted training twice a week. And they can train you too! Or your horse! Or both! Or just enjoy trail rides and lessons on one of their championship horses with an elite staff that have more belt buckles than I do racing trophies lol.

So I called today 5/18/26 and inquired about the matter and explained i had talked to someone before, anyways the lady that answered and that I talked to today i think her name was Shelby was very unprofessional. Why would you have someone like that working there? She stated they don't do those there anymore. They were time consuming and to much trouble. Wow! Isn't surgery and other medical procedures as well. So I continued to go on about there being no place here in town that provides this service. I was like that's crazy what are supposed to do or go if they have to take their dogs out of the country and she said "You don't have to take him with you" with a nasty attitude! So yes you're a b*tch!! How would you know lady!? Why or whatever my reasons are for needing him to accompany me.. Don't be cold and mean about someone needing or loving their pet! Super offended and everyone I've told this story to was like wow what a rude uncaring employee!!!! Negative -star

It was until the next morning that my dog came home full of blood from wounds he had all over his legs and body. My first instinct was to give him water since he looked parched. He drank water non stop for 10 minutes before I could take him to the vet. Turns out my dog was 10 pounds lighter (I highly doubt they even fed my dog, he devoured his food in a matter of seconds) and needed several stitches in his leg. When I called Reidsan Kennel they invited me over to see how my dog had escaped. Turns out he broke out of his individual cage and broke a small window just to escape and come home. I'm still in shock on how a dog as big as mine (Neapolitan Mastiff) could fit though a window that's less than a foot wide. Makes me wonder how badly they must treat the dogs. The only explanation given to me was that my dog is "mentally unstable" and not only did they not even bother to give me a solution but they kept the 600 dollars from the training (which by the way was a total scam) and offered to pay only half of the vets bill. Weeks have passed since the incident and my dog is still traumatized! I can't even pet him without him flinching in fear. I have no idea what went on the night of the incident, but it's safe to say I will NEVER step foot there again.

I noticed she was ill (pooping blood and vomiting yellow bile) the night before and proceeded to take her to North Hills veterinary hospital the very following morning. Dr Terri Wolf provided the worst care possible to Milly. While in the vet office, I noticed Milly had some maggots on her body which I expressed to Dr Wolf. Dr Wolf only spent about 2 minutes with Milly in which she quickly and presumptuously stated Milly had maggots on her feathers near her vent area due to poop stuck onto her feathers. Dr Wolf did not provide any further examination of Milly. Dr Wolf told me to give her a bath and provided her with a shot of ivermectin. I expressed to Dr Wolf that I am thorough in ensuring my chickens remain clean so I was not sure if the problem simply stems from "dirty feathers". Dr Wolf disregarded my concerns and did not care to elaborate or provide any further examination. When I brought Milly home, we noticed the maggots were in fact not attracted to her poop and instead Milly had severe deep wounds on her back, her vent, and under her wings in which the maggots had infested and were even under her skin. Dr. Wolf failed to notice these wounds because she did not provide a basic physical assessment or examination of Milly. Dr Wolf also did not listen to my concerns that I vocally expressed and made ignorant assumptions about Milly. How a veterinarian with "experience" could miss these horrible wounds by not doing a simple, basic examination of an animal is beyond comprehension. Knowing Milly had these horrible wounds would have required a much more aggressive treatment such as antibiotics, fluids, and pain relief. Instead, Milly did not receive proper care and suffered due to Dr Wolf's negligence. I tried my best to remove as many maggots as possible and clean her wounds however Milly went into shock and died a painful and horrific death less than 24 hours after her visit with Dr Terri Wolf.

The Merry Mutts offers great dog training classes for different levels. I take my dog there every…read moreSunday and she has so much fun. After taking her 3 times, she's already learned new tricks. Before starting a class, you need to have a private class with Mary, which is $45 (I believe) for an hour to make sure if your dog can join the group class but the group class is $100 for 6 classes. You don't have to come every Sunday as you can keep the 6 credits when you pay. I've never really looked into other classes here in El Paso but I believe this one is the cheapest! We always start with simple tricks like sit, down, go around, through but after that we use some obstacles. I believe they have an agility class too. I see many people come in when my class is over. The owner Mary is really good with any types of dogs. She understands them and she's been training for a long time. One thing I wanna tell you is you need to reconfirmed the appt for your private class like 3 times! She's so busy and she tends to forget it. I had to reschedule it 3 times before I finally got to meet her. Overall I'm really satisfied with this class and I'm sure so is my dog. I'll take more pics of available obstacles in class when I get a chance! :)
