Dirt Dogs Excavation did the finish grade for a barn pad in Elizabeth, CO several months ago. We recently visited that location again to view the finished result. Cleary Building (a fantastic local builder) erected a beautiful, two bay building that will house an RV. We also installed the recycled asphalt you see. When you need excavation or earth moving services for your new barn or shop give us a ring and you’ll get the best earth moving company around.
Dirt Dogs Excavation is proud to show off a massive horse area excavation project we are finishing up in Elizabeth, Colorado. This is a 100 ft by 200 ft horse arena with the crusher finds drain system installed. You can see Steve in the photo (standing and flapping his arms like a bird) in the middle of this new arena to help you see size proportion and just how big this area is. Notice how nice and smooth it all looks! Below is another view of this beautiful masterpiece which is sure to make all the other horse owners in the area jealous with arena envy.
We are just getting ready to begin installing the sand footing.
Here’s a couple more photos (below) to give you a perspective on the size of this baby.
Seriously…you could just about land an airplane on this thing with room to spare.

Face the facts…horses and horse arenas, land, barns, fencing, etc. can be expensive. One challenge horse lovers often face is… how can we afford and build a quality arena when there are so many other expenses? Dirt Dogs Excavation can help you plan, design and build your horse arena in an affordable and manageable way!
If you’re considering building a high quality horse arena we’re going to share a valuable secret with you….your horse arena can be done in stages. Let’s face it…building a quality horse arena can be expensive. Costly things that you have to pay for include: your land, the excavation, the fencing, the footing, maybe a barn or structure, a driveway AND the horse or two you want to ride. All this can add up and be overwhelming. But you can make this happen in stages over time just like one of our clients is doing. Here’s the story….
One of our old clients from Elizabeth, Colorado recently moved to Florence, Colorado. Because we did such an awesome job for them before – building a horse arena – they insisted that to build them another horse arena at their new location. Why? Because we’re nice people, with fair prices and we’re the best!
Interlude of Culvert Drama…
But before we got out there they had a flash flood that washed out their driveway. No problem…we were on our way out anyway. So we rebuilt their driveway and installed a new culvert drainage system – adding two, big 24″ drainage pipes alongside their pair of smaller 12″ pipes which were overwhelmed by the flood. We had to fix their driveway as part of the process too…
OK…back to the arena story. Our client really wanted a top quality arena but the price was simply too much – on top of the new move. So we came up with a plan to build the arena they want over time. Here’s the plan in a nutshell:
They whole time they are using and enjoying their arena. It just gets better each year. The arena for this client was 110′ x 201′ – which is pretty darn big!
So we’ll be back out in Florence next year when their finances are in a little stronger and then come back again in 2 years to finish up the project.
Bottom line…horse arenas can be built over time and Dirt Dogs is the best company out there to help you do the job!

Dirt Dogs just knocked out (installed) another gorgeous driveway in Centennial, Colorado. In our neck of the woods…that is – beautiful Colorado horse country where there’s a good bit of elbow room between neighbors – we’ve got REAL DRIVEWAYS. Not those little bitty baby things you see in suburbia. Nope. Out here we’re talking about nice wide and long driveways of 500 feet or more. In this case we the brand new granite driveway was about 700 ft. long – complete with a nice spot for parking vehicles. This driveway is built to handle the weather and make the drive to and fro comfortable and dreamy. We should mention that it’s going to end at a new barn that will be built this spring. AND we’ll be helping them on that barn pad excavation too. The job only took about 20 loads of granite road base and took 2 full days of work. It looked so good we hated to see it in our rear view mirrors when we left.
