About Us
Who We Are
Spirit of Texas Arabians is a Full Care Horse Boarding facility that is owned and run by Hank and Selena Copeland. We offer Boarding, Training and Lessons and are located near Dallas / Fort Worth. We love Arabians, but other breeds are welcome. Our gate opens onto 75 miles of permanently marked equestrian trails on the LBJ National Grasslands, the perfect location for scenic trail riding and training on the trails. Our obstacle course is a great place to prepare for Competitive Trail and Working Equitation events. We specialize in basic training for safe, fun trail riding that can be advanced to a personalized conditioning program if you plan to continue on in endurance riding or competitive trail. You will be included in all aspects of your horse's training, including having experienced riders and horses to accompany you on the trail.
Full Care - Horse Boarding
One of our farm gates opens right onto 75 miles of well marked horse trails at the LBJ Grasslands, no trailering required to head out on the trails. We also have a full size dressage arena, a small indoor arena with mirrors and a working equitation / trail obstacle course to allow practice for ACTHA, Competitive Trail, and Working Equitation events judged on obstacles. Our 16 stall barn stays warm in the winter and all horses are blanketed daily. In the summer we can open it up for ample air flow in the aisle and 12 x 12 stalls. We also give each horse a fan for staying cool in the summer. All stalls get ample shavings and are cleaned daily. Horses get daily turn-out weather permitting-in large managed coastal Bermuda pastures with large oak shade trees. Pastures are fenced with pipe and non-climb 2x4 horse wire.

Horse Training
At Spirit of Texas Arabians we specialize in training the Arabian and Half-Arabian horse for trail riding, trail obstacles and the basics of dressage. We also have full-care horse boarding, with many clients that have boarded with us over 10 years. Visit our Testimonial Page Here to read more about our clients experiences. Spirit of Texas Arabians features our individualized Combined Training Program to give you the opportunity to acquire all of the skills necessary to have your horse perform as well for you as he does for us. We encourage active participation by the owner in all aspects of your horse's training, so you can experience personal growth in your skills, knowledge, and confidence. A good training program begins with good communication between the trainer/coach and you. We want to understand your goals, past experiences, current skill level and get your feedback along the way.
