Hi horse people! Does anyone know if there have been any Eugene/Springfield Pigeon fever cases in the last month?
Are we on the other side of that panic?

Whilst attempting to take progress photos of his weight gain….😂
I love this horse so much, one of the biggest regrets in my life will always be, that I let him leave for this trial.
That said, he amazes me every day, His strength and trust that he is safe in my hands, his trust that he will be fed, he will not be worked to the bone (literally ), that he will be loved, unconditionally 🥰
Be careful letting a horse you love go out on trial... Even if it’s a situation you believe you can trust.

Not everyone has your horse’s best interests at heart ♥️

If you’re thinking about riding but haven’t done it because of some fear holding you back…

JuSt because someone can speak body work language, doesn’t mean they should be doing body work on horses. Be careful out there.

I don’t even know what to say 😔

❓ ARE YOU CONDUCTING THIS STRETCH CORRECTLY?

A stretch is not just simply moving a part of the body from A to B and back to A. It is the careful repositioning of a body part from neutral (A) gently to correctly mobilised (B), held for 10-15 seconds before a controlled return back to neutral (A).

A stretch that is commonly struggled with in relation to this progress is a lateral cervical mobilisation stretch. In the left photo you can see the stretch being incorrectly carried out, with the tilting of the head and neck to get the treat without stretching the muscles of the top of the neck and poll region.

In the right photo, the ears remain perpendicular to the ground and you can see a clear stretch of the muscles around the body of the handler. You can imagine here that each vertebral joint has an even extension around the handler, rather than some joints being mobilised and others locking.

If you are using stretches for your horse, ensure your physiotherapist has seen you conduct them to make sure the desired result is being achieved. ✨

Hi guys!
I’m wondering how PNW barn owners/managers feel about taking references for potential boarders, is it something you do or have thoughts on doing?
I’ve worked for competitive barns out of state who do it all the time but I’d love to know thoughts on this from my local barn owners.

(Photo because I love them❤️)

If you don’t know how to clean your own stall, you’re not a true equestrian.

Hi everyone! I want to thank everyone for your interest and messages in regards to boarding at CVS, we currently have a significant waitlist.

So please know, if you contact me about boarding, there will be a wait to get a stall. I’m happy to give tours and meet with you, I think we’re worth the wait but won’t have availability for some time❤️ thanks again for your interest!
