Read These Four Tips to Stay Safe This Spring

Know the Health Requirements

Well before your trip, schedule an appointment with your veterinarian to complete the required health requirements for your travels.

Check Tire Tread

Check the tires on your tow vehicle and trailer once per month; tires can lose traction long before they’re worn out.

Manage Thrush

If your horse gets thrush, pick out your horse’s feet every day, paying particular attention to the frog crevices, until the thrush has cleared up.

Watch Spring Footing

Spring trails might not be in top shape as soon as the weather warms. Mud might abound due to spring rains. To be safe, hike your favorite trails on foot to check the footing in advance of your ride.
