Due to a recent rise in regional EHV-1 cases, AL Performance Horses is taking extra precaution and temporarily closing the facility to outside horses. This is strictly preventative, and we want to make it clear that we have no sick horses and no concerns on our property at this time. Our goal is simply to limit exposure risk and keep our program running safely.

For anyone monitoring their own horses, keep an eye out for signs that may indicate EHV-1, including:
• Elevated temperature
• Nasal discharge or cough
• Decreased appetite or general dullness
• Hind-end weakness or wobbliness
• Difficulty rising or changes in coordination

We appreciate your understanding and your commitment to keeping the equine community healthy. Updates will be shared as the situation evolves.

Big thanks to Leah for everything she does at AL Performance Horses!
From saddling and unsaddling to free up time for client horses, to pushing calves, keeping the barn in shape, and making sure things run smoothly behind the scenes - your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed. Happy birthday, we appreciate you!

Want to get the most bang for your buck when sending your horse to the trainers, here are some of the top recommendations we suggest!

• Make sure your horse is up to date on regular maintenance - a horse that is wormed, vaccinated, shod and has his teeth properly maintained will be ready to go to work when he get to the trainers. So often we get horses who have dental issues that we have to get taken care of once they arrive, creating fights that aren't really there that we have to work through, slowing the horses progress.

• Make sure your horse is in shape - imagine you haven't been to the gym in a year and all of a sudden you decide to go 6 days a week. The body soreness created will result in frustration and unwillingness and the same is true for your horse. Even if you are sending a c**t to the c**t stater, make sure you have been exercising the animal before you send him off. It will make a way easier transition.

• Make your expectations clear - TALK TO YOUR TRAINER BEFORE SENDING THE HORSE - this may sound simple but it can create the foundation for a happy client/trainer relationship. Explain to your trainer where you want your horse to be when his time is up, then ASK how long he/she believes it will take. If you are sending your horse for a fixed amount of time, ask the trainer where he realistically expects the horse to be at when you pick them up. Remember, horses don't know/care about the schedule you have for them!

It takes a long time to become a great trainer, it also takes a long time to become a good client. Hope these tips help you get the most out of your horses time at the training barn!
