Welcome to Rouge Mountain Stables

Rouge Mountain is an older style horse ranch, as it's been in the family for a couple generations now. In its beginning it was a very large working cowhorse ranch where top quality Quarter Horses and Paints were bred and trained. But as the next generation has taken over things have changed. What used to be an outdoor arena for western events has been remade into a lovely dressage arena that can be used almost year-round. The indoor arenas can be used for anything desired, jumps can be set up or taken down and it is large enough to house shows and cattle chutes. Though some of it's western heritage remains as many of the horses now raised are trained all-around.

Now Rouge has broadened it's reaches with breeding programs and training. The recent owner has taken a liking to the Spanish type Mustangs and has a weak spot for adopting wild BLM mustangs from the round ups and auctions. It's back field is extremely large and the mustangs are often allowed out to live how they used to live; wild, though now it's only for a couple weeks at a time or when a stallion is put on pasture with his mares. Some of the adoptive Mustangs go into the back pasture and are kept there to live happy and as close to wild as they can be while still protected and kept healthy.

There are still cow horses on the property but the new influx of horses to the breeding program are vastly Baroque breeds. Many are trained for dressage or jumping and shown in local events. Some of the rising stars will be shown more heavily and hope to achieve high accolades. There are hopes to have high world class show horses and a top notch breeding program in the coming years.
