HORSE BOARDING
Safety and cleanliness are always on our minds; the stalls, arenas, fences, and everything else is designed with safety and convenience in mind.
The paddocks, pastures, and shelters are cleaned regularly as the weather allows. Stalls are meticulously cleaned and bedded each day, and all horses are given three daily feedings of high quality hay when pasture grazing is not plentiful. Each horse enjoys high quality custom grain morning and evening. 
A word from our customers:
Thank you, Hannah Barden. I had a really good time. I really appreciate you and your family for all you guys do out there for us to have fun. I also appreciate your encouragement, support, and teachings. I’ve really noticed a big impact on my relationship with Aesop. He’s trusting me more, and I’m trusting him more. After my previous horse died, I did not think I could find that bond and self-confidence again. Even after I bought Aesop, it took a long time for me to get close. But since moving to Faith Training Center, it’s been an amazing experience for me and has rebuilt my faith and self-confidence. Thank you for helping me achieve my dreams. ~Karen Palmer, South Bend, Indiana I've have been taking lessons at FTC for about a year now. I had very little experience and horse sense when I started. Hannah has taught me so much and continues to teach me every week. She is so patient, kind, and knowledgeable. The barn, stalls, and arenas are always clean, and the staff is so friendly! I now own my own horse who is boarded here. I am confident that he is well cared for and looked after every day! I highly recommend Faith Training Center to everyone! They will definitely surpass all your expectations! ~Marcie Woods, Lakeville, Indiana |
Enjoying the summer breeze, listening to the robins sing their goodnight song, or watching a sparkling sunrise; peace and tranquility are the feeling in the air that surrounds Faith Training Center.

Care:
Barn Owners and managers, Adam and Hannah Barden, along with barn staff, provide constant surveillance and oversight of the horses as they live and work on site.
Morning, afternoon, and evening, each horse is provided with high quality hay. As seasons change, grazing on well maintained, cleaned, and mown pastures is provided for each horse.
Morning and evening, every horse is given high quality custom grain. Many have asked us for this custom recipe, as the horses love it, and it leaves them healthy and shiny. Supplements are added when the owner provides. Owners are welcome to bring their own grain if they prefer.
Box stalls are bedded with ample shavings and meticulously cleaned every day. Each stall has an individual fan, heated water bucket, and free choice salt. Water buckets enable us to keep a sharp eye on each horse’s water intake.*
Since horses love being able to move about freely, we give them every opportunity to enjoy being outside. Full day turnout is a provided unless the weather is unfavorable to the point that the horses prefer being inside.
All paddocks have safe, electrified, White Lightning electric fencing to ensure your horse is not endangered if it becomes entangled. This fencing is a must have for horses!
When owners provide a fly mask, we will put it on in the morning and take it off at night for no extra charge.* Thanks to our paddock and pasture cleaning program, flies are rarely a concern..
Free choice salt blocks are provided for all horses, stall or pasture boarded.
Each horse is observed daily by experienced horse care personnel; this includes notifications if your horse is lame, doesn't look well, or something else seems concerning.
Each spring, the turnout process on grass is careful and slow. We make certain that each horse has time to acclimate to the spring grass to ensure that they do not founder or become sick.
For your convenience, we offer horse training, exercising, riding instruction, individual special care, and much more! If you have a special need, let us know! We are happy to help!
Our large gravel parking lot and gravel drives to the paddocks will keep you walking on a solid surface. Trailer parking is provided for no extra fees.
*Indicates a service only for horses that are stalled at night
Amenities:
A spacious, well lighted with LED lights, 80’ wide indoor riding arena with sand footing provides ample space for multiple horses to exercise at the same time. All of the arenas have mounting blocks for easy mounting.
Outdoors, enjoy the large, lighted arena with sand footing. Trees offer shade on hot summer days. All of our arenas are dragged and groomed on a regular basis.
If you enjoy training your horse, you will love the large round pen with sand footing!
You will be amazed by the back-woods feeling you get when you step into the pine walled lounge. This lounge makes you feel as if you are in a log cabin. Air conditioned and fully equipped with a couch, table, high-seat observation window, stove, refrigerator, TV, and microwave, you may simply feel spoiled!
Clean and gorgeous, the barn bathroom is no less amazing than the lounge; you have never seen a barn bathroom this nice! Enjoy a hot water shower after a long ride.
The climate controlled tack room provides an excellent option for keeping your leather in great shape; or if you prefer, choose a lockable tack box at no extra charge.
Trails are relaxing and peaceful, and you simply must go out on the trails that surround the stable! Several of the trails wind through hilly, wooded countryside. If you are adventurous, skip the bridge and ride your horse directly across the creek! All of the riding trails are groomed regularly.
Large run-in-shelters offer protection from the elements.
Since mud can be a nightmare in Indiana, we opted for mud-control footing in key-areas of our large paddocks. Lost boot? No more!!
Thanks to the grooming bays, barn aisles are never blocked with cross-tied horses. Bright LED lights and ceiling mounted fans make these an excellent place for vet and farrier care, grooming, and saddling.
Jumps, cones, barrels, and much more are made available for boarders to use at their convenience. Practice trailer loading skills and more with our challenging obstacle course bridge.
Outdoor wash bays with concrete footing provide an excellent place for hosing off after a ride.
Our Nelson Automatic Watering Systems ensure constant, clean water at the right temperature year-round.
