Dressage Horses Settle In at Home in PA


The Ring at our Farm in PA

All the horses are doing well and are so happy to be back home. The weather is just wonderful and everybody is enjoying their time in the field.

I am so happy to be riding in my wonderful arena again. Now that I have been away for a while , I have to say it is the best arena and footing I have ever ridden on. My horses love it too! I would like to thank Edwin from Attwood Equestrian Services and Mark "The Ringmaster" again for building us the perfect ring!

While I was in Aiken, Edwin came out to our farm in Cochranville and made sure that my ring would be perfect for me when I came home. I have to say, it really is perfect. Edwin even spent a few hours with Felix, (our guy who takes care of everything at the farm) the other day, teaching him how to drag the ring correctly. I think that is an amazing effort!

I am so impressed with the customer service that Attwood provides and with the high quality of their product. Edwin has been everything he promised: he stands behind the product and makes sure the arena is always perfect for us.

I called Boyd and we both agreed that the money we spent on our arena was the best money we have spend so far. It could not be better on any level!

New Attwood Equestrian Surfaces Arena for Boyd and Silva



Boyd has a few things to say about the new arena that Attwood Equestrian Surfaces has just completed at his and Silva's new facilities in Cochranville, PA:

Silva’s dressage operation has completely moved to our new farm in Cochranville, PA, a beautiful piece of property with 18 stalls and plenty of turn out. Her entourage of dressage horses have had a huge improvement to their training facility with a new arena by Attwood Equestrian Surfaces.

We are both very excited to be riding on what we think is actually the best footing out there for dressage and event horses. Attwood Equestrian Services have just completed a 60 x 20 meter dressage court using their fantastic new synthetic surface: a polymer coated sand which doesn’t require any watering and it’s an amazing surface that almost has a memory for when the horse’s foot presses down on the surface that it bounces back up completely, eliminating any concussion sustained through the vigorous training of our top level horses.

One of the scariest and most important parts of the footing is the grooming needed every couple of days – both Silva and I have given the fence around the arena a couple of good bumps with the tractor!

If anyone is interested in checking out this footing please don’t hesitate to stop by and have a look at our place in Cochranville or ring Edwin Barron at Attwood Equestrian: 714-258-6859
