About us, in an eggshell.

We take great pride in keeping a clean facility, and making improvements continually for the safety of the horses as well as for the enjoyment of our clients. At Celebrity Ranch, safety comes first.

We offer a custom coaching program and a unique Buckle Series to supplement other show endeavors, and also to offer a structured format for those residents who are new to showing or for those who don't take their horses off campus.  Beyond Western Dressage and Trail Obstacles, Celebrity Ranch sets itself apart with a natural horsemanship foundation. The program is driven by core values that impact the approach to horse care and training.

Celebrity Ranch, previously known as PM Show Horses, was established in 1997 by Danielle Miller and Mary Plotkin. The stable has been at it's current location in Southeast Chandler, Arizona since July of 2003.

Mary is a life long horse enthusiast from Northeastern Ohio who enjoys owning, breeding and caring for her own horses. She met her husband, Douglas Plotkin, on a trail ride. They are now both retired and reside in the house on the ranch.

Danielle Miller, Mary's daughter,  has enjoyed raising and training horses since she was a teenager. She has competed on the local and national level, and is the riding instructor at Celebrity Ranch. She also is a Cowboy Dressage World Recommended Clinician Level 2 Educator, and the Vice President of the Western Dressage Association of Arizona.

Celebrity Ranch School of Horsemanship and Western Dressage is dedicated to helping horse loving folks with ordinary skills achieve extraordinary goals through confidence building, team work, dressage elements and trail work. The ranch was named after our now passed broodmare, AQHA Ima Pretty Celebrity. Three of "Big Mama's " six foals have lived on the ranch, and now a third generation of Celebrity Ranch bred babies, including Danielle's current show mare, multiple World and National  Champion Struttinlikacelebrity.
