		Fireside Inn Cabins

If you ever get a chance to come visit us we highly recommend staying with Guy & Diane Ludwig at the Fireside Inn Cabins. You won’t find better hospitality anywhere! They have modern, clean, cozy log cabins. The San Juan river runs through their place where you can enjoy fishing or just sit and listen to it while sitting by a bon fire at night. They have a wonderful safe set up for horses if you want to bring horses and enjoy the incredible trail riding our area offers. For more information: www.firesidecabins.com

Advanced Whole Horse Dentistry
We are very big fans of a holistic whole horse approach to evaluation and treatment of horses (all animals & humans as well). Spencer LaFlure is bar none the best equine dentist in the country! I am a part time dental hygienist and have seen and experienced with our own horses that he knows more about balancing a horses mouth than most human dentists know about balancing a humans mouth! Spencer is a big believer in a whole horse, natural, respectful, kind approach to his patients and they really appreciate him and know he is helping them and cares.

We get together with Spencer at least once a year and swap information on the new things we have learned in saddle fitting and he has learned in dentistry and how they relate to each other. We are both constantly learning and trying to improve on what we do.

If would like the best to work on your horse or you or someone you know of (maybe your favorite veterinarian) would like the best instruction available to become an Advanced Equine Dentist give Spencer and his wife Judy a call at: 518-623-9967 and/or visit their web site at : www.advancedwholehorsedentistry.com

We are proud to call Mark & Hela Russell friends! Mark is one of the most gifted, talented, patient, humble horse clinicians you will find anywhere that has an obvious love for horses and a sincere desire to help their owners become great partners with their horses. He teaches all levels and types of hormanship. Check out his web site at Mark Russell Classical Horse Training www.markrusselltraining.com






				Lessons in Lightness, veteran trainer Mark Russell carries the classical knowledge of "riding in lightness" forward. His theories and concepts are drawn from the teachings of the French and Iberian ecuyers, or riding masters, who are credited with being the first to promote the benefits of suppleness and flexion in the horse in order to achieve lightness to the aids. By using these methods the rider unleashes the horse's true movement without either driving force (the rider's legs) or holding restraints (the rider's hands). When the rider enables the horse to use his energy efficiently, the horse will drive himself forward- once balanced in self-carriage, there will be no resistance in the rein. $16.95 Paperback
