Envision Your Way to a Great Ride

Print

It’s a beautiful spring day, birds are chirping and the sun is warmer than it’s felt in months. You’re out for a ride on your favorite Foxtrotter and nothing could be better. You move down the trail at a brisk flatfoot walk, your horse in perfect stride and a joy to ride.

As you round a bend in the trail, you see a scattering of deadfall littering the trail. Mother Nature and strong spring winds have cleaned up the old trees and created a natural obstacle course for you and your horse. You think to yourself (and maybe even say out loud), “Don’t trip. Don’t break stride. Don’t trip.”

Easy Winter Blanket Repairs

Print

PizzazzHorses, especially younger ones or horses kept exclusively outdoors, are notoriously hard on their winter blankets. Use these household supplies to make quick repairs.

A lighter. Use a standard lighter to melt frays and prevent small snags from turning into huge holes in blankets made of synthetic materials. Hint: Remove your horse from the blanket before starting this type of repair!
