❄️ That’s 10C ❄️

Did you know that a horse with a moderate hair coat starts requiring additional calories for body temperature regulation when the outside temperature drops to approximately 50°F?

As the temperatures start to drop, especially overnight, it's important to remember that cold weather prompts special considerations for your horse's diet and care. This is particularly important when it comes to the older members of the herd; consult your primary horse doctor to formulate a plan to keep your horses happy and healthy this fall and winter!

Our day flew by and we didn’t think to take a group Halloween pic. Nia rocked her Luigi costume and was the last one standing after a busy day.

Happy Halloween, Hampton! 🎃

As little ghosts and goblins take to the streets tonight, we ask drivers to be extra cautious. With kids excitedly running from house to house, they may be darting out unexpectedly - so stay alert and keep a close eye out!

For trick-or-treaters and parents, remember to stay visible and watch for cars pulling in or backing out of driveways. Stick to crosswalks or intersections when crossing the road, and respect people’s property by using pathways and sidewalks.

Have a fang-tastic night, stay safe, and enjoy the Halloween fun! 👻

"F" IS FOR FALL-CHECKLIST! 🍂🍁

As the cooler weather moves in, now is the time to crack down on housing, nutrition, and preventative health strategies suitable for the arrival of winter.

Check out this list of essential items on the horse owner's fall to-do list, but there is much more that needs to be done—like having your horse's blankets repaired and waterproofed, securing and storing hay properly, assessing your shelters for safety and soundness, etc.

Note that your equine veterinarian is one of your greatest allies this season, so be sure to consult them and discuss vaccination and deworming protocols appropriate for your horse’s situation. This is also a great opportunity to chat about recommended changes in nutrition and exercise programs as well!
