Dr Lewis is a wonderful vet! I'm so very lucky to have him
Dr Lewis took such good care of my dear jumper AJ (Jim Lewis did his acupuncture). So great to see him still at it. Check it out Ron Abrams!
Very nice man and wonderful polo host.
Sixteen TROT members rode in the 47th Annual Hamden Christmas Parade this past weekend! We are in the midst of holiday parade season so send your parade photos to editor@equiery.com for Out & About!
I was one of the riders - This is one of the MOST organized, well-done Parades. The organizers get us in the first couple of divisions so we can get back in plenty of time to load back up, keep our horses and riders safe in a parking lot at the beginning line until its time to walk. Make sure other participators are respectful and understand loud noises and spacing for the horses. The skateboarders were heard saying "hey guys, be careful of the horses. We don't want to scare them". A restaurant on 36th street came out and gave up hot drinks. TROT will do it for as long as we can and I hope others will join us next year !!!
Great parade!! My 3rd year in a row doing it on horseback!! With League of Maryland Horseman in 2017 and 2018 and with Trail Riders of Today this year 2019!!
I want to ride my boy in a parade
