Free Training Session!

I am fostering a South Florida SPCA rescue this month and because he is young and very green, I thought this would be a great opportunity for a little training session. Tango is a great horse, who is very intelligent and willing.  Please don't miss out on this special opportunity to be a part of helping Tango be able to find his forever home!

A great weekend of training….

Here is my 4 1/2 year old QHX in training with Julie Grennan, the former owner/operator/trainer out of Coconut Palm Equestrian Center in Homestead. Julie moved to Ocala recently and comes down every other month to help train my youngster!  He is making great progress and for a horse that has a tendency to tie-up has not had any issues now that I have been able to manage his diet and exercise with the help of many professionals.  This is a horse that is going places, though his beginnings were rough.  He was found wandering the streets of Homestead as a six month old and was rescued by the SFSPCA.  No one ever claimed him.  He then had life saving surgery as he had a bone infection due to a tree branch puncturing his neck.  So now, I want to help others who may not know what to do in an equine emergency by hosting an Equine Symposium on Equine Emergency First Aid on Friday, December 6th from 7-9 PM at the Little Yellow Barn located at 22200 SW 152 Ave in Miami.  For more information, please email southfloridahorseconnection@gmail.com.

An open forum...

It seems as though every time we talk to our vet it is because we have called him/her for an issue with our horse or it's vaccination time.  Some of us have great relationships with our vet, but some are hesitant to ask a question that doesn't pertain what the vet actually came out for.  So, here is your chance to do just that!  Dr. Franklin, DVM will be available for your questions in a completely open forum at our Equine Symposium on Equine Emergency First Aid on Friday, December 6th from 7-9 PM.  Please share this event with everyone you know as we would love to have a great showing for Dr. Franklin who has been so gracious to share his time and knowledge in the ever so important topic of discussion.  For more information, please visit our website:  www.southfloridahorseconnection.net or contact Tyra directly at 305-992-2769.
