Nutrition consult on Feb. 22, 5:30pm

14 02 2010

Finally, we have all the results from the fall. Dr. DeJong has tested the hay and found out all the nutrients in the feeds and supplements. He has entered the information we gave him regarding your horse into a computer, and has devised an individual feeding program on each horse dependent on their needs.

Dr. DeJong will begin with explaining what equine nutritional needs are; and how this changes with individual breeds as well as energy needs according to work, in order to stay fit and healthy.

At the meeting, you will receive a print out for your own horse showing all the vitamins, minerals, calories etc that they need and use.

You can then ask questions according to what your horse needs.

We start at 5:30 with refreshments, his lecture begins at 6:00. Please put this on your calendar and plan to be there.

You will find it very interesting.

I will be gone the week of March 14 (until the 24th).  Roy and I are going down to Arizona for some fun and sun (hopefully our weather karma will change).  We will be staying with Bobbie Jo and her husband John.





Comings and Goings

Merrilee, one of our barn cleaners, moved to San Francisco.  She fit in so well and we’ll miss her.  Replacing her are Mindee and another Lauren.  DeAnn has also been helping when needed.

Welcome to Ann Christianson and her lovely horse Cascadia.  She is a thoroughbred and Ann is a student at Western and has been working as an intern for Jasmine.





Congrats to Char on her new horse!

Charlotte has found her new partner.  Welcome to Bailey, a 16.1 HH Hackney Horse.  He has good feet, a nice tail, and doesn’t bite – meeting all of Char’s criteria!





Kudos for Xmas Party

5 01 2010

Thanks to Teressa for hosting the Christmas Party.  It was fun as usual but the gift exchange was a little heated and underhanded (just kidding!). We’re such a competitive group.  :).  The food was great and it’s always fun to see everyone in a different venue.
