Cow Play Day at McDonald Equine
Thank you to everyone that came out yesterday to McDonald Equine’s first cow play day! We had some horses that had never been introduced to cows before and they made great improvements. So if your horse has never been around cows before, don’t let that stop you from coming. This event is truly for all levels and disciplines.
Some 3 year olds come more gentle than others 😂
A few weeks ago McDonald Equine traveled to University of Lynchburg to show with some current client horses. Have a horse that needs more show experience? Reach out for 2025 training spots.
Next shows: Goose Creek and SWVHJA Finals.
