Papago Riding Stable

I wish I could give zero stars. I really REALLY wish I could. This place does NOT provide adequate care to ANY of its horses.
They dumped rocks in my stalls, caused my horses to go lame due to stone bruising, NEVER cleaned the stalls or the waters and NEVER did ANYTHING they agreed to do in their own boarding contract!
Upon repeated complaints by my husband and myself, Wayne told him that we weren’t a good fit for the barn and that we complained too much so we needed to leave. He said that we only paid $ 275 a month and expected the service of a $ 600 a month barn.
No, Mr. Scott, we expected you to do what you agreed to in your boarding agreement! We expected you to do AT LEAST the bare minimum when it comes to horse care!
Horses NEED;
Clean water
clean stalls
fresh bedding
No rocks in their stalls
Consistent feeding of quality feed
You provided NONE of those services for our $ 275! We never asked you to groom them, turn them out, ride them, paint their feet in gold leaf lacquer or provide grain. You didn’t do ANYTHING you were supposed to!
We plan on suing Papago Stables Inc. and it’s owner, Wayne Scott, for their neglect and fact they failed to render the services we paid for as well as the medical care my horses are undergoing in order to be brought back to soundness. We took photos of EVERYTHING.
You claim to have «done this» for over 30 years. I’ve done it for over 20 and I will NEVER neglect an animal like you have mine. You have STAFF. That leaves you NO excuse. Instead of doing the work to keep these animals comfortable, you sat and played ping pong and drank beer while roping your cattle and donkey. All play and no work makes horse owners sincerely pissed off.
I wont even get in to how badly you treat your dude string horses. Watching them spend the entire winter standing up to their ankles in mud created by their own urine and feces, that was NEVER cleaned until AFTER they left and seeing them never be brushed or bathed even when shedding and covered in that gross soup, made me want to cry. You’d think the thousands of dollars they brought you in over the winter would be enough to make you want to treat them right! I guess you figure they’re just disposable and when one gets too sick to use, you’ll throw it away and get a new one. How sick. You don’t deserve ANY animals!
Papago Stables is long overdue for being shut down and losing its license.
Oh… BTW… I now pay $ 250 a month per horse at a SHOW BARN and my horses are waited on hand and foot.
