Saturday evening I noticed that our senior boarder, Vinny, had a swollen area on his cheek. Sunday he had some bloody discharge but no fever. Vet came out Tuesday and after xrays discovered he has a fractured zygomatic bone. Minimal trauma to the skin but possible MOI is kick by other horse or significant blow to a tree/run In shelter. He is on pain meds, antibiotics and SMZs. Send this cool old man some good vibes!
Wednesday and Thursday slots available at this time. Please reach out to schedule.
Year two: camp two is a success so far. The temperatures have been hot and dry for the most part but thankfully we have the creek to cool off in. Finding lots of critters and making lots of memories!
Hi families!
It’s that time-camp is next week! I have all your liability releases and shirt sizes. If you have not sent the remaining balance of $250 per camper, please do that by Friday.
Please apply sunscreen for your kiddos so they are ready to go. I recommend either a swimsuit or extra set of clothes for the creek time. Crocs or water shoes are good for the creek but not for the horses. Sneakers or boots are preferred for riding time.
See you all Monday the 29th!
Riding Lessons for the week of 7/8-7/12 have been cancelled. See you all next week!

One of our students. She has been working hard in lessons and at our last horse camp. Today I took her on her first solo trail ride. She was all smiles the entire ride. Safe to say she loved it.

Pictures from Camp day 3. We worked on walk/trot this morning on Ellora and Poncho. All campers rode by themselves today and all we heard was laughter. Staying out of the heat today in AC working on crafts and watching horse movies.
Photos from day 2 of summer camp. We found lots of critters in the creek and had so much fun.
Yesterday kicked off the first day of Summer Camp. Kids had a blast riding horses in the morning and even more fun exploring the creek in the afternoon.

Interesting article. I personally have five different feed scoops that are all different sizes. Each has their purpose for the type of grain or supplement I use it for. The smallest scoop hold 1 quart of peleted feed where the largely holds a little over 5 quarts of pelleted feed.
A good standard horse scoop holds 3 quarts which is equivalent to roughly 3 pounds of feed.
Ask anyone how much they feed their horse, and they will usually answer with the number of scoops, quarts, cups, or coffee cans. Ask an equine nutritionist for feeding recommendations, and they will answer with how many pounds (or kilograms) to feed. Is there a difference? What is a typical…
