Alumni Update: Jewel
This little girl turned 13 on November 4th!! Also our gotcha day, Jewel has been with me for 7 years now. As you can see, Jewel has an affinity for mud and somehow manages to get her supplement mash all over her face. Not flattering in a photo with snow.
Week in Review: November 3 — 9
It’s November, and though the days have grown shorter in terms of light, they are as jam-packed as ever! Joel Conner was here last week for our last two-day workshop of the year, helping us identify our growth edges to work on this winter. The farrier was out for some…

Week in Review: October 28 — November 2
October has come and gone, with very little going on. Just kidding! The last week we’ve been doing a little rest and relaxation after our busy clinic weekend, but that by no means means there wasn’t a lot happening. Check it out below:

Alumni Update: Emma
We recently checked in with Jan and his adopted horse, Emma. Jan boards another mare on his property and her owner trail rides with Jan and Emma. Both horses also enjoy the company of two friendly goats.
Clarissa Passes
We are so sorry to tell you that last week, we made the sad decision to lay Clarissa to rest. When cleaning her stall in early February, we discovered blood coming from her vulva, a small drip that cleared up in less than 24 hours. Dr Lewis examined her and found no…
Alumni Update: Violet
We recently checked in with Lexee and Violet. Here is what Lexee had to share: Violet has been such a great addition to my herd. She and Duke (my other horse) get along so great. Best friends at first sight. She also loves to run around with him and our minis, Bubba…
