• Erosion Control:   2 to 3 times a year, Geo puts old hay down the "alley way" for erosion control.
  It is not an easy task. 

• 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 Vet Day Pictures.

• 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 brush hogged, dragged, reseeded, sprayed for weeds and fertilized.
  Horses are rotated every 2 to 3 weeks. For details on pasture, see our pasture link.
  
  Have you ever noticed that many horse facilities do not "drag" their pastures? Is that healthy for your horse to eat around all of their own manure? It definitely helps when you drag your pastures, fields, lots.

• The horses are put on a winter dry lot. Hay is fed 1 to 3 times per day (depending on weather)
  and it is fed differently (hay bunks) – much healthier for the herd. Check out the hay bunks at
  "The Extras". We do not feed like many other facilities, placing a big bale out in a bale ring.
  
  Horses will waste alot of hay plus the hay is out in the weather. MOLDED HAY is not good for a horse; can cause lung issues and heaves. Some hay is thrown on the ground. The horses are usually turned out in the pastures in April (depends on the weather and time when fertilizer is applied).

• Another quonset building was erected.  All hay is now stored inside. 

• Check out other improvements at Sitter Downs Horse Boarding.

• The girls at the Xtreme Trail Horse Challenge held at Lone Oak Ranch, Lone Jack, MO.

• Moonlight rides. Many folks have never ridden in the moonlight - a must for all trail riders.
  On July 15, 2011, there were 18 riders that rode our moonlight trail.
  
  This is one of their comments:
  
  There were only a few woodsy parts and I thought they were thrilling! The little glow things (glow necklaces) showed the trees coming at ya and you could watch the glow things in front of you to see what the terrain was gonna do. I thought it was all awesome!!

This product is excellent for healing cuts and easy to use. George doctored a mare that had a severe cut on her hock; 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.
