Hello and Welcome to the Beechgrove Stable and Kennels.
I am Elese Alsup, the owner and operator of the Beech Grove Stable and Kennels.
I have always had a love of animals and working outdoors. Growing up on a dairy, beef, and crop farm in Manchester, TN, was the perfect place for me. At eight I received my first horse and began learning to ride.
While teaching high school, I took up the hobby of foxhunting in the early 90’s with a small foxhunting club in middle Tennessee. During that time I became first flight fieldmaster and later master of this club.
After retiring from teaching in 2000, I started, along with a few friends and local riders, the Beech Grove Hunt. I was the amateur huntsman for the club, which involved breeding, training, exercising, and developing a pack of hounds and, of course, hunting them each week during the season. In the thirteen years the Beech Grove Hunt existed, I developed a good, honest, and dependable pack. Not only did the BGH pack show good sport year after year in the hunt field, but in the off-season they were entered in field trials and bench shows in which several ribbons for performance and conformation were won over the years.
After closing BGH, I continue to enjoy the sport of fox hunting with Hillsboro Hounds in middle Tennessee.
Left with a kennel and several extra stalls and too much pasture for just my horses, I decided to open a boarding
stable and
Kennel. The 250-acre farm consists of miles of trails and beautiful scenic country to ride with many jumps left over from the BGH days of hosting a cross-country event each year.
This is a small operation where attention to detail and customer satisfaction are priorities. Here your horse, dog, or cat will receive the best care possible with their safety and comfort in mind.
