Haul-ins

The arena rules are proper and necessary decorum to allow all users to enjoy the time they are working with their horses.  Please review these arena use rules, and contact us if you have any questions or suggestions.  Everyone benefits from a drama-free facility.

• Use the south door coming onto the concrete
  
• Horses' feet must be cleaned on the concrete before going into the arena -- please sweep up the mess when you have finished cleaning the feet, not after you are done riding
• Clean up your manure immediately
• All debris must be put in the wheelbarrow
  
• All doors except the south doors are crash doors -- they are emergency exits that must remain locked from the outside and free from blockage
• The ramp is not to be used by anyone not immediately involved in the therapeutic program
• All equipment is to be kept in the breezeway -- everyone is able to use the available equipment, but it must be stored immediately after use
• Share the arena, standard arena rules apply
• When lessons are being held please ensure all equipment and horses are completely clear of the arena at least 15 minutes before its next schedule use
• Arena times are from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.  The facility is closed after 10:30 p.m.
• Please tie your horses to the south section of the arena railing -- the footing for the railing with the double bars has been set deeper into the base

Dogs and horses are not always compatible, depending on the training and experience of both the dogs and horses.  We must ensure that our clients and boarders are protected and that horses are not spooked or harassed.  

We have attempted dog management policies to allow reasonable access, but these efforts have not prevented disruptive dog behaviour.  Therefore, dogs are not allowed on LTRA property.

The only exception may occur if a dog is accompanying a short visit onto the property - for example, a horse care professional, or a boarder for a short visit to check on their horses.  The dog is absolutely not allowed to be released from the vehicle.

Keep in mind that this is not an allowance to bring a dog and just leave it in the vehicle for longer periods of time.  As with any other dog-in-vehicle situation, if we or any of our boarders see a dog in a vehicle that appears to be in distress, action will be taken to rescue the dog.

LTRA visitors that require service dogs have the right to access LTRA in the manner in which their certified service dogs provide assistance.  However, dogs and horses can still pose serious situations.  The following rules apply to service dogs:

• A certified service dog is permitted to work in its assistance capacity when the dependence need is required
• However, when a service dog is no longer functioning in its assistance capacity it must be treated in the same manner as required by the regular dog policy

Please refer to the Arena Rental, more specifically the haul-in fees can be found here.  We require our facility renters to sign a rental contract and to follow our rules and regulations.

No, we do not rent horses for public riding.

There are set times when haul-ins are welcome so you do not need to prebook the arena.   However, please follow arena etiquette and share appropriately with everyone.

Yes, all haul-in riders are required to sign waivers.  Waivers are available above the payment box in the viewing area of the indoor arena.

Haul-in riding is allowed during specific scheduled times.  This may vary depending on circumstances - please check the Events Calendar for the haul-in schedule.
