Big Heart Ranch is a small 20 acre farm that specializes in the care of senior, aged, and injured equines. We are located in the northwest corner of Illinois in Jo Daviess County. We offer pasture or stall boarding on a temporary or permanent basis. Because we are a small facility, we can provide your equine companion individualized care and customize a feeding plan that keeps him/her happy & healthy. We arrange for veterinary & farrier care at the owner's expense. The farm has rolling green pastures, a spring fed creek, and plenty of lean-tos. Our monthly rate for pasture board starts at $200 (as of Mar 2011). Dry lot is also available if your equine cannot consume spring grass. We believe every horse has the right to enjoy just being a horse.
