Founded by Horsemen, Built for the Horse Community
Big Dee’s was founded in 1976 by Denise Osterholt, known throughout the industry as “Big D.” What began as a small Ohio tack store was built on hands-on horse knowledge, practical experience, and a commitment to serving fellow horsemen.
Over the past five decades, we have developed long-standing partnerships with leading equestrian brands and manufacturers while expanding our product selection to meet the evolving needs of the modern horse industry.
Our longevity reflects stability, industry expertise, and a consistent commitment to the equestrian community.
