Remote/Wilderness Track (Level 2):
This track is intended for both Western, or English-style, riders who enjoy riding outdoors, trail riding, back country riding, camping, or living three, or more, hours from vet care. We'll cover tips on how to plan a safe ride, mapping it out, knowing what to pack, noxious plants and weeds to steer clear of, communication methods to use in remote areas, and using the environment around you to use as first aid tools. |
Local/Competitive Track (Level 2):
This track is intended for those riding competitively in the arena environment, who may be traveling to shows, competitions, etc. and are NOT far from vet care, but perhaps far from their normal vet, or home. We cover common injuries seen in stalled horses and around the arena environment. We provide biosecurity information including diseases, symptom identification, what protocols exist, transmission, prevention and reporting requirements, as well as field triage of acute neurological disease/issues. |
