Electrolytes during cold weather help the horses stay hydrated and help to keep their metabolics stable. Electrolytes are better than salt because While taking salt (sodium chloride) covers the most common mineral lost in sweat, a "complete" electrolyte supplement provides a team of minerals that work together to keep your body running. Given 1 time per day is enough, they are not sweating, they are metabolizing food and water to keep warm. 🙂❤️

The new treatment modality, called Spinal Flow, that I am currently studying works on the Vargus Nervous System. It allows the body to release tension and pain, so that the brain can then release tension. When the body releases, which is 80% of the brain body nerve connection, then the body can begin to heal. This is really amazing to watch work. It's not a once and done treatment, it requires multiple treatments, but the results are unbelievable.

A Training Plan involves a lot more than saying "I'm going to ride M,W,F and compete on Sat.".
Over the next few weeks, I will explain the various parts of a Training Plan and what each involves. I will be focusing on the Horse's Plan, but you also need a Teaining plan for yourself, they are two different things. 🥰

Horse owners- please learn how to look at your horse and analyze their posture. I often post about the rear hoof angles and how it affects the back, but the front end is just as important. Photographing your horse, while they stand square, should be done at least 2 times a year. Take photos from the front, back, both sides and from above. Stand on a stool at the horses tail and get a pic of the spine from above. Make sure your horse's neck is straight and head is level with the back.
If you would like help understanding how to photograph them and how to analyze the photo, please contact me.

How do I prevent a "Nervous Horse"?
1) Slow Down, build a relationship and trust.
2) Relax - they cannot be calm if you are not.
3) Learn to listen to your horse.
4) Ask yourself if you are developing a partnership with them, or are they your submissive slave in fear of pain and punishment for doing something wrong.

When it comes to balanced nutrition for horses, there is more than one way to achieve proper energy, protein, vitamin, and mineral intake. First and foremost, it is important to consider the horse’s individual needs, including age, activity level, health status, body condition, and the availabilit...

Did you know that Minerals are the 1st thing that you should give to a starving or emaciated horse? Water and a Multi-Mineral mixture, then hay and small amounts of grain.
Their bodies are so depleted that they cannot metabolize the food without them. Minerals are the base components of the metabolic process.

Horses don't normally get the Hiccups. If you see a horse that is Hiccuping, they may be low on Calcium and/or dehydrated. Give them electrolytes and clean water right away. If the Hiccups persist for more than 1 hour call your Veterinarian!

Remember to give your horse Electrolytes and keep
their water fresh & clean. With the crazy swings in the weather it is important to keep our partners hydrated. Horses drink more water when it's cold then they do when it's hot. Adding some warm water to their feed, and soaking a small amount of hay for them to eat at feeding time also helps.
Stay safe out there.
