Our Lab, Pepper, came down with a disease process I didn’t know existed. Our journey isnt over. If by example we can grant another dog early detection through education and her example then our difficult trek will have purpose.
Please watch and share and help us spread the warning.

Join us as we share Pepper’s story and educate others who love their animals, but wasn’t prepared for a medical emergency. ...

😶😶free tick testing 😶😶 in link below. I’ve used the service myself. It’s real.
Horses and humans and the risks of tick borne diseases
(Look how short the window of time is for transmission.)
1. Lyme disease is the most common pathogen to be aware of. Our studies show that adult blacklegged (deer) ticks have a higher chance of carrying this disease, compared to the nymph life stage. If left untreated, it can cause severe damage to bodily functions such as the heart and nervous system. According to the CDC, the blacklegged (deer) tick would need to be attached to the skin for at least 18 – 24 hours to transmit Lyme disease.

2. Powassan Virus is a rare tickborne virus found in an estimated 1% of blacklegged ticks. Although rare, it is a serious disease and can be transmitted in as little as 15 minutes from an infected tick. Symptoms usually appear within 1 to 4 weeks after the bite and include initial symptoms such as fever, headache, weakness, and vomiting.

3. Anaplasmosis is a serious pathogen as it infects white blood cells. If left untreated it can lead to serious complications. Transmission from the tick to the individual can occur quickly after a tick bite within an estimated timeframe of 6-10 hours. Early treatment is crucial to avoid further serious illnesses.

4. Babesiosis is a disease caused by a parasitic infection of the red blood cells. Babesiosis can be difficult to diagnose, because the symptoms are similar to Lyme disease, leading to prolonged treatment. This disease can be transmitted from ticks to individuals in an estimated 36-48 hours.

During the fall season, adult blacklegged tick activity is high, making it very important to take proper tick safety precautions to prevent a tick bite. If exposed to a tick, remove the tick safely with fine point tweezers, and save it to be tested! Testing the tick will determine if you’ve been exposed to any pathogens that put you or your loved ones at risk.

I'm starting art classes. It's casual and fun and can be as instructive as one desires. First class offered is on how to paint leaves. I've spent hours studying and practicing techniques and have narrowed it down to a simple-to-understand method. This method can apply to different scenes in future themed events.
I'll have coffee and tea ready. If you want wine...you'll have to bring it.
8 SEATS ONLY. I like my classes small.
I have a heated studio on my farm at Wild Hare Acres Equine Center.
Classes are approximately 2 hours long.
I use professional level supplies, no cheap stuff here.
If you have a heat gun or hairdryer, bring it.
To reserve a seat, a deposit of $20 is required, non-refundable, but can be re-applied to a future class if you can't make it.
Please share.

Introducing the "Be the Change" watercolor series. Change can be challenging for many individuals, as they often find comfort in familiarity, even when it is detrimental. Consider various aspects of life, such as diet, routine, work policies, health, and politics - the list is extensive. While most people may express dissatisfaction, few take initiative to research alternative solutions or propose innovative ideas. It is easier to criticize and remain passive. Embracing change is crucial. Autumn's cyclical transformation, marked by vibrant colors and breathtaking beauty, illustrates the necessity of change to foster growth. The demise of outdated ideas, habits, and thought processes paves the way for renewal. Embracing change is essential.
I hope this Autumn finds you healthy and happy. If you like this series, I will be offering these one of a kind, original paintings for sale.
I will also paint leaves you send me photos of and make it unique & personal to you. Message me for details.

Reina is searching for her next adventure.
She can: sidepass; half pass; turnaround, rate & neck reining well started. Does all the obstacles. Trail ridden and brave. Likes to lead but will back off. Rope and drag stuff. Has seen cows but never worked them.
When she stops, she is starting to put her butt in the dirt.
Tomorrow she is going to see a reining horse trainer for an evaluation. Once she’s in, her price goes up—I’m investing in her, and her future.
