Horses
At La Cantera Ranch, we offer a full service equine boarding and care facility, complete with horse show boarding, overnight boarding, as well as special care for the older horses that need extra attention. We also offer American quarter horses for sale, on an as-available basis.
Horse Boarding
Let us spoil your horses so all you have to do is ride.
Stay at our facility in the house or the ranch mobile home. Instead of renting stalls at the John Justin arena, and staying at a hotel, show your horses in Fort Worth and then come back to La Cantera for the evening. Stalls for horses, rooms for humans, and kennels for the dogs!

Trainer on Staff
La Cantera welcomes Ross Barnette to our facility. Ross is from Katy, Texas, where he grew up riding horses. Early in his childhood, Ross started riding reining horses and has been riding and improving his abilities ever since.
Ross has ridden for well known trainers such as Steve Archer near Katy, Texas , Tom McCutcheon at Green Valley Ranch in Aubrey, Texas. Ross feels fortunate to have worked for many different trainers but is now developing his own program for colts, aged event horses as well as problem horses. Ross believes that every young horse should have a fair start and build a good solid foundation to maximize their talent in the show ring. He gives new meaning to “show the horse you have”. Ride with Ross and you’ll have more horse than you had!
Ross will work with Rookies and Non-Pro riders to teach the basics of horsemanship or improve your showmanship in the ring. Come talk to Ross and see if you and your horse are a fit!
Horses For Sale
We currently have two beautiful La Cantera horses for sale, “Von” and “Dually”:
“Kacha Dual Pep”
Four-year-old old Sorrell, blaze, out of the great cutting horse Dual Pep. In reining training now becaase I like all my horses super trained. She is a big stopper. Very quiet. She has had John Lyons and Clinton Anderson round pen training and colt starting. We ride her on the acreage across the street on trails and she never spooks. We’re selling because we travel too much to have a young horse. This is a good minded filly. Her mother and her sister are reining horses but she would make a cutter due to her bloodlines. She tries to “cow” the dog when I am in the arena working her. If we would keep her, she would go to the cutters. Starting her on the mechanical cow this month. Asking $3,500.
“Kacha Von Reminic”
Beautiful, Sorrell, blaze face, stout, 14.2 hands, great conformation. Her sire is the Million Dollar sire, Von Reminic. This mare has a lot of heart and try. +1 spins, +1/2 circles. She has 3.5 yrs of Reining Training and is currently in training. Asking $17,000 for her.
