Rintoul Stables is a small riding and boarding stable located 12 miles north west of the City of Humboldt, Saskatchewan. We provide a Certified Equine Assisted Learning Program, Beginners Learn to Ride Program, special needs riding opportunities, summer horsemanship camps, trail rides and horse boarding.
I have ridden and owned horses for over 19 years. Previously living on a cattle ranch and PFRA pasture there was alot of riding to do. I have three kids who also love to ride, with both of my daughters previously competing in the Saskatchewan Barrel Racing Association! I am a Certified Equine Assisted Learning Facilitator (EAL), have my National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP) certificate, 1st Aid and CPR.
Horses are a great passion of mine and at Rintoul Stables we want to give everyone an opportunity to experience and learn from these amazing animals!
Prayer From A Horse
1. GIVE ME THE TIME TO KNOW WHAT YOU WANT OF ME. I DON’T UNDERSTAND YOUR WORDS.
2. DON’T BE ANGRY WITH ME WHEN I DO NOT UNDERSTAND. I HAVE ONLY YOU TO EXPLAIN THINGS TO ME.
3. TALK TO ME. EVEN IF I DON’T UNDERSTAND YOUR WORDS. I UNDERSTAND YOUR VOICE.
4. BE AWARE THAT HOWEVER YOU TREAT ME, I WILL NOT FORGET IT.
5. KEEP ME SAFE FROM HARM, BECAUSE I AM NO LONGER WILD AND ABLE TO KNOW MY ENEMIES.
6. BEFORE YOU HIT ME, REMEMBER THAT I HAVE TEETH THAT COULD CRUSH THE BONES IN YOUR HANDS AND HOOVES THAT COULD KILL YOU. BUT, I CHOOSE NOT TO USE THEM.
7. BEFORE YOU SCOLD ME FOR BEING LAZY OR UNCOOPERATIVE, ASK YOURSELF IF I AM WELL OR IF SOMETHING MAY BE BOTHERING ME.
8. MY LIFE IS LIKELY TO LAST 20 TO 30 YEARS. PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT I AM TAKEN CARE OF BECAUSE I CANNOT CARE FOR MYSELF.
9. GO WITH ME ON DIFFICULT JOURNEYS. DON’T SAY, "I CAN’T STAND TO WATCH IT", OR "LET IT HAPPEN IN MY ABSENCE." EVERYTHING IS EASIER FOR ME IF YOU ARE THERE.
10. PLACE YOUR TRUST IN ME AND I WILL TRUST YOU.
