Kitty Nirvana….. heat lamp and a cornered twisty tie!

Archie and Applejax having a grand time in the pasture. They are playing by chasing, neck sword fighting, posturing by pawing and grabbing a hold of each others checks. The finale includes biting each others bottoms and rearing. Old man “gelding games” at its best!

In the process of planning for upcoming winter storms-Stalls are stripped, water buckets clean, mangers filled, square bales stocked, additional shaving stacked, medicine and supplement levels checked! Additional stock tanks, hoses, round bales and tractor staged in indoor arena! What a wonderful hardworking staff!

The drill team worked so hard this fall! Their hard work showed through and had a great presentation at the horse show!

Wally has been a very studious Horsemanship student!

Strange tales from the Equine ER Doctor! Always a popular segment of the Lameness Seminar on March 11, Dr Huntington will present X-rays, pictures and videos from interesting local cases. Take the video below, can you spot the abnormal eating pattern? Think it’s Teeth? Hmmm. Come to the Seminar to find out the convoluted path to discovery! Call Dr. Huntington at (417) 860-5115 to register. $35 per person. Limited seating! You might be turned away if not preregistered!

Zorro says, “Join me this Sat at 10:00 am on Facebook Live for the Christmas parade at Valley Water Mill Equestrian Center!”

Shorty gets some heavy duty scritches!

Otis having fun in the water tank!

Dash is no Dummy! CIty Utilities regularly vents the water from the line to ensure water quality in the summer. They are nice enough to reroute the water to our fields rather than letting it run down the street. Not only does this provide a nice green area for grazing in the summer, but Dash has learned that it’s a great spot to cool off!
