STREAMING
VIDEOS TO BE OFFERED ON THE
NAES WEB SITE |
Videos
will be provided free of charge on the NAES web site
beginning first part of the fourth quarter, 2008. Three
topics will be offered initially.
The need for information on horses and related problems
has dictated the many areas we’ll visually address.
Covered topics will be much broader than our customary
“Tips of the Month.” NAES welcomes your
input on areas that need to be addressed. |
|
|
The first video will focus on Agister's
liens and will aid the stable owner in collecting
overdue boarding payments.
The second video will analyze the
important steps in filing a lawsuit; (from my non-lawyer
experience).
The
third video will talk about taking your horse to a
show and being aware of the drugs and medication requirements
of rating groups, especially the USEF.

REGISTRATION
PAPERS
Why Registration Papers for Non-Breeding Horses |

Buying
a horse for your enjoyment can be lots of fun when done
with the help of knowledgeable friends or trainers.
Often, however, the horse purchaser
does not realize the importance of registration papers.
|
|
Always
make sure that registration papers are signed over
to you by the owner. The papers are critical even
in the non-breeding animal.
Should you decide to show your new horse at a breed-specific
show, you’ll need the signed-over documents
in order to be allowed to participate.
In addition, when its time to sell your horse it will
be easier to sell with the proper registrations.

PRE-PURCHASE
EXAMS
Why It’s not the Job of the Vet to Know the Price |
Getting
a pre-purchase exam on
your new purchase is, of course, absolutely mandatory.
It may seem silly to sometimes pay more for the pre-purchase
exam than the cost of the animal but in the end you’ll
appreciate knowing more about the condition of your
purchase. |

Obviously,
your trainer or savvy friend has helped to determine
if the horse and you “fit” and the price
is right. It’s not necessary that
the veterinarian know the horse’s price since
he or she is not your trainer.
The price of the horse should never
be a motivating factor in the depth of examination
of the subject horse. In other words, if the practitioner
has specific concerns then you need to be consulted
in order to authorize more and perhaps costly procedures
no matter what the base cost is.

One
of the most ethical horseman I know is the former Editor-in-Chief,
(for 15 years), of the well known magazine,
“The Bloodhorse.” Ray
now has his own website and I would encourage you
to sign up for his frequent thoughts on the Thoroughbred
racing industry; Ray always “tells it like it
is.”

ICY’S
COLUMN
ICY’s
decided to have me describe the Paws to Read program
that has been established throughout the US.
As shown in the picture, the dogs are brought in to
school situations where the students read to them. Obviously
the dogs don’t really understand the youngster’s
words but they act like they do. |

“VIOGNIER,” the Doberman in this picture,
is also a certified Delta Society therapy dog and despite
her serious cancer condition, eagerly gets to know and
give comfort to the kids and adults.

In
addition, “VINNY,” as she’s known,
goes regularly to the native American Hozhoni Foundation
to see the severely handicapped adults. She seemed to
know those with the most need and snuggles up to them.

and her friend, Chico –

Recently,
one of her “patients,” Chico suffered a
fatal seizure; VINNY was visibly upset when she could
not find her former friend. |
