The Mane Chatt is live

From William Roush

Finding horse resources around here used to come from two places: word of mouth, which is great but only reaches as far as the people you already know, and Facebook, which is... about the same. We had no idea what was honestly within a comfortable drive. After a lot of looking, we found there was way more out there than we expected, so we built The Mane Chatt to put it all in one place.

It's free to use and free to be listed, and we plan to keep it that way.

What's here

Stables, trainers, arenas, trails, clubs, farriers, vets, dentists, bodyworkers, saddle fitters, tack and feed stores, hay, haulers, rescues, photographers, barn services and more, within about three hours of town. That covers north Georgia, north Alabama, and east and middle Tennessee. Right now it's 75 stables, 44 trainers, 54 feed stores and 30 equine vets, and it grows every week.

Every category has filters for the things you'd otherwise call around to ask about, like full board, lessons, an indoor arena or trail access. Sort by distance from you, or see it all on the map.
