A horse doesn't care how much you know, until he knows how much you care.

Linda Dorie-Arakelian, President
AJ's Stafford Feed & Pet Supplies
Linda grew up living next to Lake Oswego Hunt Club and "hot walked" the polo ponies for her first job. She graduated from PSU and started her career, but her heart was always seeking an equine-related business opportunity.
After two years of research and planning, AJ’s Stafford Feed & Pet Supplies opened on May 17, 2001. After over 15 years in business, Linda loves being in a place where she can talk about horses, what organic feed is best for your baby chicks, birdseed varieties and recommend what product to use on your dog that just received a direct hit from the neighborhood skunk.
Linda owns a small barn where she trains her young horses in Dressage, Jumping, Trail and Eventing.
