What Our Happy Client Say
"Yay I get to be first to review Paxton LLC, specifically Dana Robinson. My girls have taken lessons from Dana for the past few months. Since we have some experience getting lessons and seeing different barns in the bay area we have some perspective. In short, Dana is first-rate. If you take lessons through Paxton LLC you will have that wonderful combination of a great trainer, great horses, and a great barn. Its really tough to get that combination here and for us it is worth the drive out to Livermore."
