About Us...
Dorothy has over 30 years experience with care of
horses, from race horses, track lay-ups, retirement, to
the pasture potatoes. She has managed facilities that
housed as many as 60 horses at one time, and with her
own farm with a rainbow of four legged creatures in all
shapes, colors, and sizes. Dorothy believes that you
can learn something new everyday and there is no
such thing as knowing “it all”. Even though Dorothy
attends as many seminars and schooling classes
provided, she feels that she has learned some of the
best lessons from the horses themselves.
Allowing horses to be her teachers, Dorothy has
learned how to judge their different temperaments.
She is especially queued to when horses are feeling
sickness and sadness which may cause them to go into
a "rescue mode". Dorothy understands that rescue
mode can be associated with physical problems and/or
mental health issues. If there is a problem physically
Dorothy will do all she can to try to pin point where the
problem is and fix it. With mental health issues she
makes it a priority to reassure the horses that there
will be consistent love, care and food.
Dorothy has a well rounded background on horses and uses her knowledge in a positive
way to make sure that all her own horses, and her boarders horses are properly taken
care of. She also goes the extra step to make sure that the atmosphere at the farm is one
of a "comfort zone".
Our Goal
At Hidden View Farm, We Pride Ourselves For Rescuing Horses In Need. Most Of The
Horses We Have Available Have Been Taken Out Of Bad Situations And Brought To Our
Farm. At Hidden View These Horses Learn About Love And Compassion, Are Retrained
And Sold To Private Homes. The Only Way We Are Able To Help More Horses Is By
Finding Homes For The Ones We Already Have. If You Purchase A Horse From Hidden
View Farm You Are Not Only Buying A Horse, You Are Gaining A Friend That Will
Always Appreciate Your Kindness.
Our barn manager, Dawn Adams, has over 20 years experience with hands on care of horses.
Dawn has experience working horses "from start to finish". Her knowledge of horses comes
from working with foals, breaking yearlings, and retraining off the track Thoroughbreds.
Dawn specializes in taking ex-racers and making them into eventing horses and competitive
show jumpers.
We pride ourselves for keeping things at a family-friendly, down home, relaxing atmosphere
that is non-competitive. This strength comes with the overall enjoyment of being on, near,
and around horses.
