Equestrian Days Newsletter Edition 2 Volume 3

From Your First Horse, To Your First Foal

News From The Editor:

Well, it's official, Spring is finally here. The weather is getting nice, except for the thunderstorms. The days are getting longer and the mares are getting ready to come into season (oh joy!).

We got the new pasture done and the horses moved. They love having the extra room, and with 4 horses out there, I like the fact that they aren't over-eating the field.

We were finally able to get out and do some cleaning around the barn, weeding, cleaning up someone else's mess, and putting up some crossties. This will help in keeping my back yard dry, and it is easier to tie up back there as it is closer to their fields.

The smaller field is working out great for working the horses. We actually are using both the smaller field and the dry lot for working them in. Depending on which horse we are working with and what we are trying to accomplish.
