Angels Do Exist I had the worst luck finding the right horse. We had bought several from private sellers and ended up with all kinds of problems and issues, including one that was drugged. How I wish we had just gone to Francesca originally. Once I did, she found me the right horse and she found me my best friend. It hasn't been easy to say the least!
Francesca has always been patient and kind, she handles the horses with much love and with a knack that most of us don't possess. She has always been upfront and honest, helpful and willing to do whatever it takes to find the perfect match. She has always made herself available and willing to work with any situation.
I will definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a horse. There's no puff and smoke, what she says is what it is and she always wants to do the right thing even if it means going out of her way to do it. I completely trust Francesca.
God Bless you Francesca , we need more like you.

Business with the Good Shepherd Ranch. I have bought two Paint Mares from the Good Shepherd Ranch. I am very happy to say, I am very pleased with both and how helpful the owner was. We received our last gift from the Ranch on Sept. 05, 2009, which is our long awaited filly out of one of the Stallions at the Ranch, Slash RS Patriot. She has beautiful color and confirmation with a sweet dispostition to boot. Both Mares were as discribed in the ad, no surprises. I was even able to have one of them transported by the Ranch to my home and was able to meet the great people who run it. I am considering having some more finishing training for one of the mares done and though it is a great distance from me, would like to have it done at the Good Shepherd Ranch as well. I like how the horses were handled there, obviously with great care as attributed by the nature/behavior of the mares. I may also have my filly started there in the future. Thanks to Francesca for all your work and help! I hope to be able to visit you soon.

You Can't Go Wrong!
We have purchased horses, sold horses, used Good Shepherd (Francesca) as a Trainer, for lessons, breeding her study to our mare, purchasing tack and just plain, good old advice. She has been totally honest with us and has gone out of her way to accommodate us with all of our needs. It has been a great pleasure to do business with Good Shepherd and Fracesca. You can't go wrong using Good Shepherd for all of your horse related needs.

BUYING A HORSE?? I purchased a horse from a private seller in my area. They lied to me & sold me a terrible horse. I wished I would have known about the good sheppherd ranch back then. If I would have known about them back then I would have not got screwed with this horse.
But thank God for good folks at the good sheppherd ranch, they sold me a good horse that I could use right away & trained my previous one that was terrible. Now I own both horses & am happy with both. If it were not for franchesca at the good sheppherd ranch I would be at a loss with the first horse I purcased & would never trust anyone in the horse industry again. They are a heaven sent.
They are a good place to deal with. Good people!

Thumbs up
Hello
just wanted to say that I have sent 8 of my horses to the good sheperd ranch for training & they have done a spectacular job with every one of them.
I was a professional trainer in Montana before coming to Tucson & am now to old to train my own. They train them the way I like & are always honest & fair.
I have also bred several of my mares with their stallions & I am always pleased with the quality of crop their stallions produce with my quarter horse mares. I am a quarter horse fan, don't care for fancy color too much but am a big fan of paints since breeding to their stallions. Their stallions have great minds & amaze me every time I use them or spend time with them. One of the foals from their stallions I have put into reining & am very pleased.

The lessons really helped her out so much, you did such a good with her & I can not beleive you got her riding again after her accident. We are so happy & could not have done it without your help & our new boy Jack.

WOW! - Good Shephard ranch has been so pleasant to deal with. I have been an experienced horse woman now for 40+ years. They placed me with the right horse & helped me find the right gear for me & my horse at such great prices & really great quality. They are so helpful & so friendly always.
They are honest & I love their policy with the horses they sell, if you buy the horse & it doesn't work out just bring the horse back to them & they will resell it & search until they find you the right horse. They really care for the horses & their customers! They have a very nice user friendly facility with GREAT trails out of their back yard! I bred my broodmare to their stallion last year & was so pleased with the quality & demeanor of the foal. I will be using GSR for as long as I can. They are so resourceful & helpful in every way. I HIGHLY recommend them for any or all of your equine needs!
I have had MANY bad experiences in the equine industy & they are a breath of fresh air to deal with.

Higly recomended I bought a mare & a gelding from the Good Shepherd Ranch & we are so pleased with the quality of their animals for the price! They have great facilities & they have helped me out so much. They found me a great deal on a saddle & tack, they even delivered the horses for me. I had to do nothing, they took care of everything for me & my new horses. Thanks guys!
They are very knowledable & me being a horseman for over 30 years now have learned some things from them.
I highly recommend them, especially if you are a 1st time horse buyer they will really help you & guide you in the right direction.

These guys are awesome! Made me a very happy horseman! Good Shepherd Ranch is the best place I have ever dealt with. I am a first time horse owner & they have more then helped me every step of the way. They helped find me the perfect horse oor me & the right tack. They helped find me everything I needed under my small budget I had saved up. They are always here for me when I need them, even when I have the dumbest questions they make me feel good about it.
They are great people!
I have been with Good Shepherd Ranch for 3 years now & continue to be happy with them, my horse, everything!
Thanks guys for making me a very happy horseman!

Oh Boy! - Have to say I am so pleased with how thay do business. I bought the horse I wanted from them, that they tried to talk me out of because they knew she wasn't right for me. But despite my stupid effort to pick the most pretty one, I picked wrong. The horse was exactly what they said. Which I was surprised to meet an honest horse person. So even though I did not listen to them they were not mad & still took the horse back. They honored their bring back garuntee even though it was my mistake not theirs. So they sold that horse for me & have since personally picked out the right horse for me. I can't beleive how much they did for me & have been there for me every step of the way, despite my stupidity.
I highly recommend Good Shephard ranch to anyone for all their horsey needs.
Thanks so much.
P.S. I am so happy with my new horse, you were right all along he is exactly what I needed & wanted after all.
