Full Retirement
Golden Years, Lived to the Fullest
At Eligius, retirement is never "out of sight, out of mind."
For those horses ready to fully embrace their golden years, we offer a full retirement program with diverse living arrangements tailored to suit each horse's needs. Regular farrier, dental, and veterinary care is included, as well as routine grooming and daily health checks.
Retirement Care
Four pillars of our approach to ensuring every retiree lives their best life.
Curated Companionship
We match horses based on their personalities and needs. For those who enjoy a community, we offer stable, low-stress herd environments where horses can enjoy a natural setting. For those less comfortable in a herd environment, we offer the option for a more private lifestyle to ensure peace of mind without isolation.
Comprehensive Wellness Maintenance
Our program includes a strict schedule of farrier trims, specialized dental visits, and routine veterinary screenings to catch the subtle shifts of aging before they become issues. Every retiree receives a custom diet plan that best fits their changing needs.
Routine Grooming & Daily Health Checks
Every horse is handled and groomed regularly. This isn't just for aesthetics — it allows us to perform daily hands-on inspections for any changes in weight, skin condition, and joint comfort so we can keep your partner feeling their best.
End of Life Care
We believe in honoring our horse's past and will help you delicately navigate the difficulty of end of life decisions.
