Competitive Trail Riding

Jo Harder is planning to attempt competitive trail 25-mile riding and is looking for someone that is interested in doing the same.  A 25-mile ride CTR is typically about 4-4.5 hours, of which about half is a brisk walk and half is trotting or maybe even a slow canter.  We’d need to do at least one 20-plus-mile ride each week to get in shape (I think—I’m new to all this!).  If you’re interested, please contact Jo at 938-5270.

Vet Only a Phone Call Away!
Vet Supply magazine has a veterinarian on call Monday through Friday from 7 a.m.-8 p.m. and Saturdays 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Dr. Porter or Dr. Stava are based out of Nebraska so they are on a different time zone. Lynda Rehse recently spoke to him about a problem with her horse. She found him very helpful and patient with her questions.
