Full Training Board
Black Rushin Farm
This beautiful, spacious facility is in Medfield, MA. It is conveniently located between Providence, RI and Boston, MA, easily accessible from I95 and I495. Here we offer full care and training board.
Facility
Black Rushin Farm offers beautiful pastures for all day individual or group turnout in a secluded and relaxed environment. The bright standard size arena is attached to the barn and has good quality dust free footing. We strive to create a safe and relaxed atmosphere to make even nervous or traumatized horses relax and heal. We try to never rush our training sessions. The stalls are large, and well bedded to allow maximum rest and recovery at night.
Programs
We offer full or partial training, rehab board, as well as a senior program. All programs include 20 minutes of hand walking before turnout. It is not only a great way to warm up your horse for the day, it also helps limit the risk of injury. Our horses spend around 6 hours outside and can go out in any weather.
Our stalls are bedded deeply with shavings offering a comfortable and relaxed space to rest and recover. We offer quality first and second cut hay, as well as straw and alfalfa (hay and cubes).
Our full care programs start at $3500/month.

Backing
Do you have a young horse in need to be started under saddle?
Dilara's foundation in the German training scale began at an early age, from when on she observed its practical application under the guidance of her trainers, a two-time Olympic competitor and gold and silver medalist, while starting one young horse after the next.
Over time, her expertise expanded through studying the methods of the Spanish Riding School and drawing inspiration from historical classical masters. These rich influences have shaped her approach to riding, training, and horse care, blending tradition with thoughtful individualized practice.
Experienced
Over the last 15 years Dilara has successfully started many horses' careers. Many of them were successfully trained up the levels and have competed nationally and internationally in dressage and jumping.
Fair and horse friendly
Central to Dilara's philosophy is a commitment to upholding the highest standards in the horse world combined with sport. She prioritizes the well-being of the horse above all, ensuring that training methods are fair, humanen, and rooted in respect for the animal's physical and mental health. By fostering a partnership built on trust, respect, and understanding, she strives to set an example of integrity and compassion in every aspect of equestrian practice.
Rehab
Prevention
Our routines are designed to limit the risk of injury or mental exhaustion. We check our horses daily to determine how much and what kind of work is ideal for your horse each day. Preparation is key, and sometimes doing less is more. The same applies to their mental health.

We have proudly rehabbed many horses and helped them get back to their careers . Whether you are looking to get back to competitions or simply having fun riding your horse again, we are happy to help.
