THE RANCH & IT'S HISTORY

DPR is a privately owned horse ranch in Southwest Florida and is currently home to eight resident dragons. The ranch was previously known as Emerald Equestrian or Emerald Racing & Breeding by the many who trained, showed and/or boarded their horses on these grounds. With a history full of amazing memories, remarkable horses, great people and now a slow transition in ownership; The ranch will forevermore be known as Dragon Pilot Ranch. My connection to the ranch began 14 years ago when I started boarding, training and showing with Emerald's equestrian program, as a sophomore in high school. It's an unbelievable full circle achievement to say that after more than a decade of building, learning and tons of personal and professional growth, I am able to launch my dream on the same ranch that I have been apart of for so many years.
