Two great events this weekend in S FL!

What a wonderful weekend coming up in beautiful S FL!  With the horse show canceled this Saturday, no one will have an excuse not to attend the South Florida Trail Riders Autism Ride.  The ride will begin out of Woodrose Ranch, which is located at 14501 SW 224 ST.  Registration begins at 9 AM and the proceeds will go the Villa Lyan Equine Therapy Program.  On Sunday, April 6th you can attend the open house at the South Florida SPCA Rescue Ranch, located at 24650 SW 167 Ave.  This event is free to the public.  It is a chance for the rescue to open their doors to the public, in hopes that homes can be found for the many horses they have in their care.  The event begins at noon and runs until 5 PM.  There will be food trucks and even a raffle.  If you think you are going to attend, they would appreciate a RSVP by contacting laurie@helpthehorses.org.

Those darn parasites!

Pasture Management for Parasite Control

This article may be long, but it's packed full of great information.  Every part of the country has its issues when it comes to this problem.  Down here in S FL, there are not that many facilities that have great pasture areas, plus many of them only turn out for short periods of time.  There usually aren't alternate paddocks to be able to rotate, so it makes it even more difficult.  What are your practices for pasture management?

Looking for good, used tack

Do you happen to have some gently used tack in your home/barn that you haven't used for a while and might just be taking up extra valuable space?  Have you tried selling it on either Craigslist/Ebay without any success?  Would you like to try consignment to try to sell your goods?  If so, we are going to be looking to add to our inventory as our equine consignment will soon be open for business.  We will accept tack from all disciplines, but it must be in good condition.  If you would like to give consignment a try, contact us:  southfloridahorseconnection@gmail.com

Time For A Little Fun!

Today let's have a little fun and help find a "show name" for Eros.  His name in the Greek language means God Of Love, so I thought something along those lines would be fitting.  I don't take this stuff too seriously so I'm looking for a cute name that fits his personality.  This is what I have so far:

Love Machine
Simply Irresistible
Crazy Little Thing Called Love

I'd love to hear what you can come up with, so send me an email with your suggestions to:  southfloridahorseconnection@gmail.com
