There comes a time in every Thoroughbred's life when its time to leave their trainer's box, either through injury or even age or weariness. It becomes clear that its time for them to find a new career or paddock that will be their new home. Its important to know that there is life after racing!

Sometimes due to injury, promising careers are cut short.

At Massie Lodge we have the facilities to care for your thoroughbred that needs some rehabilitation prior to being let down in the paddock and just being a horse.

Sometimes you don't want to let go of your friend. Everyone wants their mate to have somewhere safe and secure to live for the rest of their life. Somewhere where they will be loved and cared for.

We understand this.

At Massie Lodge we offer special rates for our long term residents that will make you smile and feel assured that your mate is being given care, second to none. Why not give us a call and talk to us about your friend, sometimes you just don't want to sell them because they mean too much too you - and we know this as a fact as we have a few of our own senior residents already enjoying the rest of their life!
