So this was a great day! It was rewarding and fun to be there with the horses. Honored to be able to give back and share Neumann and Venture with the residents. Hope to be able to do it again in the future! The horses were enthralled and so calm!

A great night for Bob! Well done Bob!

This past weekend marked the end of an era at our farm with the passing of this mighty little Arab gelding aptly named Nitro. He was 35 years young by my calculations and had been a patient of mine for 10 years but I lost track of when he moved to the farm to become part of the farm family. Feisty but friendly would describe him, a bit opinionated but overall easy to be around. Had a little trouble in that he tended to bite off more than he could chew when it came to meeting new horses so I sewed him up a few more times than the rest of the herd cuz he was scrappy. He found his niche with Neuman most recently. Despite his varied health issues as he aged, he always looked the picture of health - fat and sassy literally to the day he passed. He will be missed by many, most especially by Carla, who loved him best. Rest easy, little man.

Neumann gave us a bit of a scare today with a mild colic episode. Turned out to be a gas colic but led to a Neumann spa day! Spent some time celebrating the unique life of Neumann aka Bit 'O Honey, a mini that came to our farm as a week old weanling with stifle issues and is now considered a farm mascot. He has lived a storied life, providing companionship to a number of different horses and humans over the years. Goes to show, that with a little bit of help and direction, we all have a purpose in this life.

There's something very satisfying, on a very cold, blustery, snowy evening, to have all the water tanks full, hay out to all the outside horses and the barn crew tucked in tight🥰. Stay warm everyone and enjoy the snow storm!

That time of year is fast approaching...to blanket or not to blanket!

That time of year is fast approaching...to blanket or not to blanket!

TO BLANKET OR NOT TO BLANKET?

As temperatures are cooling, many horse owners may be wondering when it's time to start blanketing their horses, or if blanketing should be done at all. The short answer to this age-old debate is, "it depends."

While it is true that horses are naturally designed to keep warm without a blanket, the decision to blanket or not should be based on your horse's unique needs — which are determined by age and overall health, condition, shelter situation, tolerance to cold, and activity schedule (e.g., if you horse has a sleek "show coat,” has trouble keeping weight on or is an older animal, it will probably benefit from having a blanket on its back).

The catch is, once one starts blanketing, blankets must continue throughout the season. And while they are useful, blankets should be applied responsibly:
• During seasonal transitions, like from summer to fall, several blanket changes may be needed on the same day in response to day/night temperature changes.

• Always replace or remove a soaked blanket immediately — wet blankets will keep in the wetness, creating an even colder horse. This could potentially create a skin fungus problem, or even worse could cause hypothermia-induced colic. (The reverse is also true: don't put a blanket on a wet horse.)

• Finally, don’t just blanket a horse and forget about it. There can be changes happening under the blanket, like weight loss/gain, skin fungus or bacterial infections, blanket rubs, etc. Be sure to remove the blanket at least once a week for a good grooming and to check for any problems.

Consult your horse doctor today about what is best for your horse when it comes to blanketing. While there are apps out there that can help you understand what blankets to use and when, nothing can replace your veterinarian's expertise!
