I am looking to bring my gelding to the outer SE Portland area (Milwaukie, Happy Valley, Clackamas, Oregon City). Does anyone know of any boarding stables that are miniature friendly? Or is there anyone on here with an open stall or pen next spring that wouldn't mind a boarder? Thanks for any suggestions.

You could try posting on [email protected] or an idea is Dawn and Summer Sayles at Vintage Farms in Estacada.
I believe their email is [email protected]
Good luck...

The Mt. Hood Equestrian Center right on Hwy. 26 on the way to Boring has at least one mini boarded currently.

WOW, RMH!! You've just named the parts of town where I was born and raised...do you live in Happy Valley?
My mother and sister still live on Mt. Scott within the Happy Valley city limits. I went to Happy Valley Grade School and the original Clackamas High School (which was then in Milwaukie). My father (William C. Beutler) was the first fire chief of the Happy Valley Fire Dept and designed two of their trucks. He was also very involved when Happy Valley was became an incorporated into a city.
Until recent years, Happy Valley had many resident horses, but now I don't know if any live there.
In addition to the Mt. Hood Equestrian Center, I would also ask at Columbia Equine Hospital and Willamette Equine Hospital. Sue Roake of Bebop Farms in Boring may know of someone close in Southeast. Clackamas Community College offers riding classes at a stable nearby in Molalla, and if they don't have boarding, they would probably know of someone else.
If you go to the NW Miniature Horse Club list of area farms, you will find a breeder in West Linn...I'm drawing a blank, though, on their name.
If you are within the Portland city limits, zoning allows you to keep "livestock" so long as they are no closer than 50 feet from any house...after we did our paperwork (when my husband and I lived near Mt. Tabor), they told us that they don't consider minis livestock and that we didn't need to follow those rules.
I'll ask my sister if she knows of any boarding facilities in the Happy Valley/Sunnyside/Clackamas area and let you know. Beyond that, welcome to the neighborhood!
