Lots to choose from at NikkiAlvinSmithStudio.com including these ‘hot topics’ just released with First Time Rights currently available.
Should Your Horse Take The Wrap? ~ Horses aren’t born with boots and bandages and survive perfectly well in the wild without being adorned with expensive leg ‘clobber’ that makes much money for the equestrian trade. Horses’ legs are barely visible with certain styles of leg gear, wrapped from coronet band to above their knees it sometimes gives pause to even this dressage lover. Barrel racing to showjumpers, the driving force behind leg wraps and boots may not be the best option for keeping your horse sound. In fact, they may even cause damage. This article offers insights to the matter of whether it is wise to give the boot to horse boots.
Round Up Your Hay Supply ~ If you’re not concerned about what’s in your horse’s hay then you should be. The advent of Round Up Ready alfalfa seed, drought caused weed explosions in hayfields, masked mold and dust deterrents in dry bales is cause for concern. Makes you wonder where the increase in gastric ulcers and respiratory issues, hives and other skin conditions in our horses is coming from doesn’t it? This article explores the reality of what is commonly found in horse hay, from salts to fire retardants to mouse poison.
Don’t Zone Out ~ Almost every equestrian riding today has been blessed with the experience of riding out on the trail. Trouble is, finding trails to ride and enjoy has become increasingly difficult as agricultural land is marginalized with human migration and the inevitable development of properties. This ‘how to’ format article advises on how like-minded equestrians can help protect the trails and keep them available for non-motorized use with a look at other countries that have successfully navigated this issue.
The Neighbor Issue ~ It’s almost inevitable that at some point or other a horse property owner will face adverse reactions from neighbors about the sights, smells and noises that emanate from the horse farm. Learn the best methods to approach the likely complaints and how to nurture your neighbors rather than fight with them.
