* We do of all vet and farrier scheduling. Owner will be responsible for all vet and farrier bills. We suggest that new horses coming in, starting a 5 day Panacur Pak before arriving.
* We also supply "Fly Predators" to help keep the flies to a minimum! Which by the way, works wonderfully!
* We highly recommend all of our horses use "Equi-Spot" which is a spot-on fly control that protect horses from flies, gnats, mosquitoes and ticks! This can be purchased by Dover or Smart-Pak and shipped here. This along with the fly predators, practically eliminates fly sheets and fly sprays!
* Some of our horses are also on Smart-Pak suppliments that are supplied by the owners, and served by us!
* If your horse requires a different type of special feed or hay supplement such as beet pulp, alfalfa cubes or any extra amounts of grain, "other than the normal amount of grain fed which is already included in the board" to help maintain weight for hard-keepers, we would be glad to serve any of these items for a reasonable additional cost.
