NOTE: We ask that we be given a 30-day notification if you decide to move your horse. If the horse is moved during the month or moved to a facility for temporary training, we will not refund any monies to you. If the horse is sold during the month, we will not refund any monies to you.
Vet day services: Our facility does not charge any fee to "hold your horse" for the vet. You do not need to be here for this annual event. See 2010 Vet Day Pictures. General services: Spring vaccinations (5-way shot), regular deworming (rotating schedule), eye care, hoof care/abscesses, applying medicine and shots at a minimal cost to you. Mineral (Perma-Guard added - fly control) vitamin supplements, and salt blocks are provided. All pastures are mowed, dragged, reseeded, sprayed for weeds and fertilized. Horses are rotated every 2 to 3 weeks. See "The Cardiovascular Workout" for details on the pastures. Horses are in a winter dry lot. Hay is fed 1 to 3 times per day. The horses are usually turned out in the pastures in April (depends on the weather and time when fertilizer is applied). In 2010, another quanset building will be erected. All hay will be stored inside and it is fed differently (hay bunks) – much healthier for the herd. They are not your typical round bale hay feeders. Check out the hay bunks at "The Extras". Some hay is thrown on the ground. Cookouts/BBQ The girls at the Xtreme Trail Horse Challenge held at Lone Oak Ranch, Lone Jack, MO. Outings to other places to ride (Eagles Ranch, Panther Creek, Pineville, Knobnoster, Poosey Conservation (Jamesport, MO), Shawnee National Forest, Mingsville, Smithville). The Sitter Downs group went to Pine Grove Trails (Leslie, AR), Cedar Lake, Ouachita Mountains (Heavener, OK). Moonlight rides. Many folks have never ridden in the moonlight - a must for all trail riders. Check out the Updates at Sitter Downs Horse Boarding.

In August of 2006, John Sitter, who is our brother-in-law (horse shoer) had open heart surgery. His horse shoeing buddies, showed up to shoe his horses here at our facility and other neighbors brought their horses to be shod as well. All proceeds went to John (Pictures of this event).

This product is excellent for healing cuts and easy to use. George doctored a mare that had a severe cut on her hock and was ready to be "put down"; the owner had spent over $2,000 on vet bills. The proud flesh kept coming back. She brought the mare to him. The mare healed up. We wish we would have taken pictures of her injury. This unique medicine has made us a believer. We have it in stock. Our charge is $30 per bottle (includes baking powder).
We have been using Perma-Guard and have found it very effective against ticks, fleas and flies. We are currently feeding it to all of the horses by adding it to their mineral. When it is ingested it passes through the intestines and is deposited in the stool. When flies land on the stool or lay eggs, it lacerates the body of the flies and kills the larvae. Dust your barn and pets; kills ticks and fleas. If fed individually, add a cup of Perma-Guard to 2 lbs. of feed. The "official" directions are 2% of dry weight, or 1 cup daily. This regimen should allow your animal to become worm and parasite free. As the product is all natural, if per chance they are overfed, they will either not eat it, or eat it and pass it out. Which is one of the benefits of the product anyway. When they pass it out in their droppings, it kills the flies, or other insects that land on it. You can also use the product as a "dusting" mechanism by applying it to the animal directly and also dust your stalls/barn. It can be applied wet by mixing 1 or more cups of powder with water and applying by a pump sprayer (ensure you shake the sprayer frequently). Using this method, the powder will not be effective until it dries. It can be used in your yard, garden and on your flowers. Any insect that comes in contact, even for a split second, will die. It works by lacerating the exoskeleton and the insect dehydrates to death. Contact Mark Tesky, 816-224-8924, E-mail: matesky@peoplepc.com
