Critter-Sitting On Deadline – Famous Last Words
Tuesday, April 02 2013
We have always done more than write. In addition to bodywork on horses and smaller mammals, including humans, we provide excellent care for Critters, Farms & Houses when dear friends travel. Occasionally we must go to extremes in order to ensure the well-being of their animals and homes: these efforts more than justify the small amount we ask to help our bill-paying fund (aka income before outgo!).

We addressed “stress at horse shows” in the last blog, so now lets discuss a bit about fear – the other main culprit causing spookiness in horses.

How to Handle Dogs On the Trail
Monday, March 25 2013
Whenever you head out onto public trails, you’re likely to encounter dogs. Hopefully they’re accompanied by their owners and are leashed, but that’s not always the case. Giving thought to how to deal with dogs before you encounter them will prepare you for if and when that time comes.
