Horse Breeders & Owners Conference

I’m hoping to see lots of my horsey friends and clients at the 27th Annual Horse Breeders & Owners Conference in Red Deer this weekend. If you see Dave or myself be sure to come and say Hi. We love to chat with horse people. You might have to remind us of your names as we are getting older (and I have always had a bit of a filing problem happening in my brain in the name storage region) but don’t let that stop you from letting us know how Northernhorse.com is working for you and how we can be of even better service to you.

Josh Nichol at Breeders Conference

I see one of my favorite clinicians is going to share some of his knowledge and understanding of people and horses with us at the Horse Breeders & Owners Conference in Red Deer in January. I just put the info on the events section. The dates are January 9 – 11, 2009.

Although I have only taken one clinic with Josh, I keep telling myself I must go back for another. He really impressed all of us who attended his clinic. He helped us all feel a little more comfortable in where ever we were at while helping us reach out a little bit to do things we didn’t realize we could do. Each of us was communicating much clearer with our horses at the end of the clinic. Both my mare and I really enjoyed and benefited from the experience.

From “Matching horse to the job” to “Hoof Trimming” to “Insights on Equitation Over Fences” there is something for every horseperson at this event. A great learning resource and one of my favorite social events of the winter. It gives us something to look forward to in the short, cold days of January. See you there.
