Professional Horse Handler/Driver

Oscar Rios

I have been raised with horses and livestock my whole life. My family was introduced to horses and livestock by my father.  I train horses from starting colts, to finished rope horses. I have been hauling livestock for Rio Grand Classic Horse Sale in El Paso Texas for the past ten years.  I have a total of 15 years experience hauling horses to horse shows, sales, rodeos, and to farms across the United States.

I have roped in most all of the Western States and as far East as Minnesota, Oklahoma and East Texas. I won Rookie of the Year in Montana, in the Northwest Rodeo Association (1994). My wife and I have trained hundreds of roping horses during our 24 years of marriage.

My wife and I ran our own boarding stables. We gave riding classes to 4-H students and gave private lessons, teaching students to rope, ride; and care for their horses and livestock. I also am an accomplished welder and farrier.

I own a 2007 Dodge Super Duty one ton truck.

Oscar was wonderful, such a nice fellow. He delivered my filly and she was calm and relaxed. No signs of stress. I am extremely pleased with your service and am very Thankful for a perfect delivery.

Sincerely,
Julie R.

Just wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed doing business with Oscar. He's very professional and seemed to be a great guy. The horses got to Montana in great shape. He put me at ease from the start, and called frequently to "touch base".

Hello Marshall,

A HUGE "thank you" to both you and Oscar! Your transport really bailed us out when the "other" people we booked with took our deposit and left us stranded. Oscar called every day to let us know how the horses were doing and where he was on the long cross country trip. All three horses were just fine. Oscar is one good horse person I would highly recommend! Our thanks again.......it is good to know there are still honest people out there!

Hi Marshall

Oscar was wonderful with my horses. I felt totally confident that my horses would be well cared for and settled during the long trip, which was a new feeling for me in having my horses transported. I actually did not worry at all! Please relay my thanks to Oscar.

Sorry I have no photos to send.

Hey there!

I just wanted to say thank you for a wonderful transport. Oscar was FABULOUS!!! I highly recommend him and would be happy to be used as a reference if needed. Decent transporters are few and far between and everything was just perfect on mine. THANK YOU!!! :-) Take care!

Dear Scott,

I would like to thank you and Oscar for providing a safe and successful hauling experience to move my new horse from Missouri to South Carolina.  I have never done anything like this before, and was pretty nervous about how it would work out.  But you and Oscar were very helpful, and Saire arrived on time and in good shape.  I was very pleased with Pure Pleasure, and will certainly recommend your company when I have a chance to do so.

Best wishes,

Barbara F.
