Discover peace and the magic of horse wisdom

At Sundog Corral, the mission is to provide a serene environment that nurtures the human spirit. We believe in the power of immersion with horses and nature that can take you deep into your soul. When we meet the horse in front of us we face our heart and our inner knowing.

At The Sundog Corral, we believe horses are here to help us. They are medicine for our souls. By mirroring us horses can take us out of our minds and into our hearts leading us to deeper levels of self awareness to promote personal growth and well-being.

Prescott, Az
Nestled in the high desert of Northern Arizona in shadows of the mighty Granite mountain, the Sundog Corral is a sanctuary of peace and tranquility. Our location offers an ideal environment for relaxation and rejuvenation.

A few rooms are offered at "The Corral" and in addition at the beautiful Howdy Ranch right around the corner from The Corral. There are shared and private rooms available.

Join us in the corral for an afternoon experiencing pure presence with these magnificent beings who ask nothing of you but to reveal your truth. Pick a Big Horse Big Heart Oracle card to guide you to the realm of your higher self. Feel the wisdom that ripples out of your heart and soul.
We will literally circle up in chairs while the horses chose were to go. They may stand near by radiating their big heart energy or they may come right up to you with curiosity allowing you to touch them if you please. Chances are you will feel a bubbling over of emotion offering you valuable insight towards your personal growth.
In addition to the horses Jo and Brandi will be holding space for guidance and support. Brandi is available for readings if you wish and Jo can explain the creation of each card.

Every attempt will be made to accommodate you in a private space. At this time the bed arrangements between The Corral and The Howdy Ranch are almost all queen beds. In the event the retreat is full we may ask if those who may be friends or family would not mind sleeping in the same bed, we can also put a single bed in a queen room or another room to make separate bed space. In other words we aim to please, we will get creative to serve you! The dream for Sundog Corral someday is to without a question make private spaces for all!
If you cancel your spot more than 30 days prior to the retreat date, you will receive a full refund. If you cancel between 15 and 30 days prior to the retreat, you will receive a 50% refund. Unfortunately, we are not able to offer refunds for cancellations made less than 15 days prior to the retreat date.
Although it makes lodging with privacy a little more challenging men are welcome at this retreat. However the retreat is likely to be all or mostly women.
Open today | 09:00 am – 05:00 pm |
