Remember! When you rinse a horse is cool water they need shade afterward or you risk the chance of the water heating up on their coat in the sun and causing damage!

Example, today is 95 degrees with humidity of 56 percent.. that adds up to 151 heat index.

In these conditions you will easily over stress your horses ability to cool themselves off by working them and risk the potential for so many issues INCLUDING DEATH from heat stroke.

It’s common sense and kindness.

Fly mask precautions!

As we begin the dreaded black fly season and start to mask up our horses there's more to think about than the neighbors asking why we blindfolded poor Fluffy 🤦🏼‍♀️

🥵 Heat. One thing to remember is in extreme heat waves fly masks can cause sweating and then chafing. Bring your horse in and take the mask off and let them dry before putting it back on your horse to avoid chaffing 💦

👀 Ill fit around the eyes. This is a big problem because so many masks are generic size but no horse is a generic size. Make sure that the eyes on the fly mask is not too tight against the horses eyes or it can cause damage to the eye balls or constant blinking up against the material can cause gunky eye or infection Also, make sure you take the mask off daily to clean around the eye area both horse and mask for any debris 🧽🧴🫧

👃👂 Ill fit around the nose or ears if it is earless. This is a problem too because maybe Fluffy has two fly masks and mini Bu**er tore his up last summer 😬 and now Fluffy has to share his extra mask but it's too big for little guy. Well, this can be a cute picture for laughs but if it's too big around the nose or ears bugs can easily still crawl in and get under the mask and this is worse than no fly mask on the face because now they are happily trapped under there and you can’t see them and Fluffy can't shake them off 😔.

Happy trails 🦄 and may the wind always blow your bugs away🌬️

Farrier client announcement 📣

Good morning from the farrier.

I’ll keep this short and simple, as always I hate this part. The pricing part. The inevitable part of living in this world today. I do this job for the love of the horse but if I’m going to keep doing the job for the love of the horse the money has to match todays world. Tools and shoes and travel costs… we all know, it’s all gone up. It’s through the roof, it’s mind blowing the cost of living in the world these days.

As of June 1️⃣st 2024 this will be the price list in effect.

Barefoot trims:
Regular$50
Draft cross$60
Draft$70

Hoof treatments:
Thrush emergency treatment:$10/per foot
White line protect:$15/per foot
Thrush or white line quick treat:$3/per foot

Shoes: GLUE and POLY only, (prices include trims not in addition to)
Front set:$120
Full set:$175
Front special:$150
Draft shoeing will have additional fees.

Boot fitting: FREE!!!:)

Thank from the bottom of my heart heart to all my loyal clients over the years, believe me when I tell you I appreciate your business and look forward to continuing to work on your equines.

There’s nothing like a little girls love of a horse:)

It’s 🥵. And we’re not just talking about the competition this summer. After a hard schooling session or a long ride, one of the last things you want to do is stay out in the heat. But, before you can cool off yourself, you have to cool off your horse.

Horses handle cold weather much better than hot weather, so cooling down in the summer months is extremely important. Learn how you can help cool your horse when riding during these hot summer months:
