Safety first!

We all need to remember that horses are flight animals and we always need to be on our toes whether or not it is our own horse or we are caring for others.  I came across a sad but eye opening story that happened just the end of February at the International Polo Club in Wellington.  A groom was taking a horse from the fields when he passed too close to another horse who spooked and kicked him in the head.  He died within an hour from his injury.  This is a stark reminder that horse safety comes first.  There is a workshop that my friend Shelley Patterson is holding on April 27th in Southwest Ranches called Intro to Horses and Horse Ownership.  Shelley was the volunteer coordinator for the South Florida SPCA for many years and is a wealth of information.  For more information on her workshop, please contact her at shelley@horseownerworkshops.com or 305-495-2486.
