At C&K Stables LLC, we proudly stand behind every horse we represent. Each horse is hand-selected, honestly described, and thoroughly evaluated for safety, soundness, and sanity. We do our best to ensure every buyer finds the perfect match — but if for any reason you’re not completely satisfied, the horse may be returned within 10 days of purchase.
- Every horse comes with our 10-day money back guarantee. Ask us for full details when purchasing.
- If purchased sight-unseen or online and shipped, the 10-day window begins when the horse arrives at the Buyer's location.
- The 10 days is for you to get to know the horse and ride it.
Family-safe horses
We carefully choose each horse we sell and put them through our extensive training and evaluation programs to make sure they are calm, capable, and ready to be your perfect partner.
- Most horses come with a vet check, shots, Coggins and dental work.

Buyer questions
The details, in full
How does buying a horse from out of state work?
Pick a horse from the photos and videos, then call or text us with questions. If you want a vet check, schedule it before you buy. Then buy the horse online from his page with the Buy now button. We work with multiple shippers and normally ship within a week after purchase. For a shipped horse, the 10-day warranty starts when the horse arrives at your place.
How do you check temperament before a horse is listed?
Before we put a horse up for sale, we carefully check its temperament, soundness and suitability. Every listing says what that horse does in our hands, and any known health issues are disclosed before purchase.
Do your horses come with a guarantee?
Every horse comes with our 10-day money back guarantee. If the horse isn't the right fit, tell us in writing within 10 days and return the horse to our farm within that window. A 10% deposit/restocking fee, shipping costs and card or platform fees are non-refundable; you get the rest back after the horse is returned and checked. The horse must come back in the same condition. Ask us for the full details for the horse you want.
Do you deliver? How much is shipping?
Yes. We offer nationwide and international shipping, including California and Canada. Long hauls average $1.00 to $1.50 per mile; short hauls vary and we work to find you the best price. Shipping is not included in the price: after you pay, call us for quotes and scheduling, or pick up at the farm by appointment.
Are horses vetted? Do they have a current Coggins?
Most horses are up to date on a veterinary health check, Coggins, shots, farrier work and dental care. A pre-purchase exam by your own vet is encouraged, at your expense, and must be done before you buy: the 10 days are for getting to know the horse, not for vetting.
How can I pay? Do you offer financing?
You can pay online at checkout, or by credit or debit card (3% service fee), PayPal or Venmo Friends & Family, Cash App, Zelle, bank wire, or cash in person. Checks are accepted only if the horse stays here until the check clears. Ask us about anything else; we are happy to consider other safe payment options.
Could a mare be in foal?
Our program typically lasts 4 to 6 months, so we can't guarantee whether a mare is in foal. If you don't want a foal, schedule a vet pregnancy check before purchase.
