Sharing the road safely is important, so when you see a horse and rider on the road, remember: kia tūpato kia ata haere, pass wide and slow 🐴

This weekend 14-15 September, there will be more than 40 awareness rides to promote this important message taking place around Aotearoa New Zealand, so please take extra care. If you’d like to know more about the awareness rides, and to find one near you, visit Pass Wide and Slow New Zealand for more details.

I did my first Equine Nutrition Educational presentation to the lovely ladies of the Waimakariri Riding Club last Wednesday night.

I managed to squeeze the "Basics of Equine Nutrition" into 1 hour....phew....there was a lot of info but well received. They have a wee special going at the moment for my new services.

So many more things to talk about and it was hard to limit what was included. I now need to to a bit more study for my final exam, but if any club would like an Equine Nutrition Educational presentation, flick me a PM.

Just had the pleasure of meeting Dr Jess Fuller from Fuller Vet today when she came to do the teeth on my 3 horses. Jess was brilliant, did a fantastic & thorough job with no fuss (had a concrete truck turn up in the middle! - unplanned but couldn't turn away as my builder has been waiting a week). Jess has a wealth of knowledge and we had a lengthy chat on equine nutrition which I'm currently studying. I learnt a few teeth related things like horses have an "overbite" when their head is up but don't when their head is down grazing.

She bought along a horse skull (fascinating)- a mare as it didn't have canine teeth (learnt that today as well) which I tried to name "Gertrude" (wasn't accepted), then "Hazel the Head" (we'll see if that one sticks 😁).

Anyway, would absolutely recommend Jess for anyone needing a horse dentist.

Performed Emmett on this amazing boy. Helped him out in the shoulders and found an ouchie spot around his stifles which will require a few more sessions.
He is based in Rakaia, so I will be looking at going back, so if you are in the area let me know and I can make a day of it.

Did an Emmett treatment on this lovely horse last night. She's had a bit of a rough life but her current owner is turning her around! Half way through the treatment, she decided that she wanted to explore, so I allowed her to step up onto the concrete. Her owner was amazed that she willingly did this by herself - something she has never done before. Then she came back down and parked up beside me ready for the next Emmett move 🥰 love the results of Emmett, it's so gentle but comes with huge results.

Next in the series - Sunday 11th February. All details below - PM me to book.

**EQUINE NUTRITION CASE STUDIES WANTED**

Hi all, I'm nearing the end of my Equine Nutrition studies and one of my last assignments is to do "Clinical Nutrition Consultant Reports" i.e. creating a balanced diet for your horse taking into consideration (but not limited to) your horses breed, age, workload, grazing and health

This involves:
- meeting with you and your horse at your property/grazing
- answering some questions relating to your horses current diet, exercise, health and you and your horses wants and needs
- analysing your horses current diet and making any relevant suggestions that may improve your horses health or way of going
- follow up visits to make sure you and your horse are happy with any suggestions that were made

If you would be interested in partaking, please PM me and I will go through in more detail with you.

Many thanks!
Robyn

Hi all, I am newly qualified Emmett 4 Horses Equine Therapist!!

Emmett 4 Horses is a non-invasive light touch therapy which relaxes and releases muscles. It provides a powerful but extremely gently release. Great for any horse at any time, but especially useful in helping to treat such things as saddle soreness, restricted movement, tension in neck and back plus more! There are even some moves that help relieve a horse with colic or laminitis.

I've been working away in the background attending weekend clinics over the last 18 months and in July I obtained level 5 and became an Emmett 4 Horses Equine Therapist. It's been a fantastic learning experience, where I not only gained new skills in helping our equine partners using Emmett, but I have also learned to become more patient and observant. Both equally good qualities for being involved with horses.

I have one more level to attend in November which will bump my status up to an Equine Practitioner and from there, we have the opportunity to attend clinics which will keep the learning going.

The Emmett family has been fantastic and we have been privileged to have Rebecca Cooper from Australia come over and expertly tutor us as well as having our very own Emmett 4 Horses New Zealand tutor, Esme Whinwray who has been a most gracious host and provides the trusty steeds that we can work our newly acquired magic on.

I am available for therapy sessions. Contact me to book in.
