It's still a hot summer out here!
 
Make sure that you are drinking plenty of water while out at the ranch. If you are in need of a water bottle we have GA sports bottles for sale in the office.
Salt Blocks

If you do not already have a salt block in your horse's stall...now is the time.           

 

"Horses do require about 1-2 ounces of salt per day to help meet their requirement for sodium and chloride.  This requirement can increase to 4-6 ounces of salt per day in hot climates or under exercise where losses in sweat increase greatly.  Inadequate salt in the diet can result in abnormal eating behavior such as licking or chewing objects which have salt on them (fork handles etc.) or licking/eating dirt.  Water intake may also decrease, increasing the risk of impaction colic. In more extreme cases, horses will stop eating and may experience muscle incoordination."  
 
Yield to Horses
While driving on Green Acres Ranch please be aware that the ranch policy is for vehicles to always yield to horses.  There are no exceptions to this policy.  We want to ensure the safety of all our customers as well as horses.  Please let riders safely pass or clear out of the area before proceeding.  

Thank you! 

your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
