Skyline Stables
Welcome to our new home.
Believe
This review is long overdue. We were looking for a horse that would take my daughter further than just a trail riding horse. Something that had some potential for playdays as it seemed that’s the direction my daughter wanted to go. I called Skyline Stables on a reference from a friend who had purchased a horse that they were super happy with from them. We made an appointment and went over and looked at a few. Everything was wonderful, but not quite what we were looking for. Presley suggested we try a little horse that she had been riding named Duke. We tried him and thought that maybe he was just a little too much for my daughter. Don reassured us that with a little more riding and some bonding with my daughter he would be perfect. Needless to say, we were nervous and skeptical. Don made us a deal, if within 30 days, Duke did not suit my daughter, we could return him for a full refund. Well, I’m here to tell you that we would not sell Duke for any money. He turned out to be exactly what Presley and Don said he would be. Now we are just waiting for some warm weather and off to the fairgrounds we go. It has been the best experience we have had in purchasing a horse. Don and Presley are so honest, and no their livestock. So when you’re there, and you’re looking at a horse, and they tell you something about it, “Believe”
Outstanding in the Equine field!
Don sold me two bomb proof horses twenty years ago….the man is simply the best in the game…so much so that I will make the trip from PA when my needs arrive…. My kids still talk about the summer shows that they participated in!
All the best Don in your relocation!
My Husband Loves to Ride with Me
Our family purchased our first horse from Skyline Stables last summer after finding them on YouTube. We always wanted a Buckskin and Skyline had one named Ace. We went there, rode him and loved him. We purchased him on the spot. We called Don after New Years and told him my husband was looking for a paint and wondered if he had one. Don said he had one that wasn’t quite ready and asked if we could hang tight for another week or two. We said we would. We got to see this horse two weeks later and again rode him, loved him and bought him. We named (my husband) named him Tonka and he is another amazing horse in our pasture.
But most importantly, now my husband and I share horseback riding together.
Thank you Don, Presley and Katie.
Bear
I’ve bought horses from Don before and I don’t hesitate to come back when one catches my eye. Our latest purchase, Bear, has been a great hit with our family and the rest of our herd. The horse has been a pleasure to use and work with. Just as Don described.
Pongo aka "Prince"
Great folks! My husband and I had been hunting for a gelding for me for quite some time. When we first called Don we let him know what we were looking for and what price point we were at. I had been following Skyline online for about 7-8 months and watching all the neat things they do with their horses to prepare them for their forever homes. Don made a few suggestions of potential horses and put us down to come by and see them a few weeks out. His business approach and morals are top-notch! Pongo ended up catching our eye before we ever made it out to the ranch so we scheduled an earlier appointment than originally anticipated. When I tell you this gelding is DREAMY, it is not an exaggeration. He was exactly as Don described him over the phone. Well mannered, loves to ride, kind and let’s not forget gorgeous! Our experience when we got to the ranch was wonderful. My husband took Pongo out on the trail and he did great! Me, being a beginner rider, ponied our prospect in the round pen and I instantly fell in love. Since having our boy home he has been everything described and more. He’s gentle, sure-footed and loves his person. We’ve definitely connected and are enjoying each other. If you are looking for an open and honest horse seller, Skyline Stables and Don should be your first choice! We will definitely do business with him and his crew again. They exceeded our expectations, took care of us like we were their most important client and sent us on our merry way with a wonderful new horse.
Perseus
Don and his girls were supper helpful and friendly. We went to find my daughter a beginner friendly horse and Percy was the perfect match. They took the time to show my daughter all about the horse and were very patient with her. I highly recommend Skyline. They were very honest with us and answered every question we asked. Thank you Don, Presley and Audrey for all your help.
Bear
I have bought a couple of horses from Don in the past and it has always been the best experience. Him and his staff are such a pleasure to work with. Now when we see a horse from them that catches my eye, I jump at the opportunity. I always look forward to doing business with them. Our last purchase, Bear, has been such a great addition to our family. He is just as described. Couldn’t be happier. I’ll be back again!
Charcoal
My heart is ful!! I can’t say enough nice things about Don and Presley! I bought Charcoal immediately after watching his video with Presley. Don is super knowledgeable and explains everything very clearly. They both have great communication and keep you in the loop. They even delivered him to me in what was the smoothest process ever. When you’re buying a horse and making such a large investment-rest assured, you’re in great hands. Now about Charcoal…his new name is Nero and I’m in love! He’s gorgeous, just as expected and the BEST mannered horse I’ve ever owned. Thank you thank you thank you Don & Presley.
Grainger and Trigger
I bought both Grainger and Trigger. They are both the best horses I’ve had. They are well behaved, and if they have the brand, you can trust them. Also the foxtrotters are awesome and rare for these parts. Great to have Don in Texas! He also takes care of your needs and questions after purchase!
Gizmo!
Don sold us a great horse – Gizmo! He is such a good horse and Don was great to work with. We would definitely purchase from Skyline Stables again in the future .
