As the cooler season comes upon us, see some helpful blanketing information at: https://www.horsedvm.com/featured-infographic/complete-guide-to-horse-blanketing-infographic 

A Horse Fall Checklist for your convenience is attached, speak with your veterinarian now to have your horse be a healthy, happy, and loving companion for you. A reminder that if you need to call a veterinarian at any time in the days ahead, have them draw your Coggins test for you as they are good for 1 year. If you do this now, you will not have to scramble in the spring and your vet will appreciate it.
