Update 5/21/2009

This has been a beautiful and busy May of 2009.  I wanted to share with you that my wonderful, loving, and caring wife Katie and I will be celebrating our 1st year anniversary on Sunday.  What a wonderful journey marriage has been for us.  We have learned so much about each-other and I look forward to many more years together.

May, has brought us many new clients.  Our newest regular stop is Breezy Ridge Stables located in Hagerstown, MD.  Tim and Jennifer Gargana have a fantastic facility.  Please visit www.breezyridgestables.com for more information about their boarding and training services, summer camp programs, and lessons. 

We’ll be off this Saturday, Sunday, and Monday for the holidays.  We wish you a happy Memorial Day.

Laminitis Season 2009

I’ve recieved 3 phone calls within the last 48 hours for horses with acute laminitis so please be cautious becuase the season is here.  If you have a horse on lush pasture or who has chronic laminitis beware, and take extra precautions to avoid this serious problem.  If your horse begins to show signs of lameness please contact you veternarian and farrier immediatley.  Most damage associated with laminitis occurs very fast usually within the first 24-48 hours.
