Horse Trailer Loading

Trailering can be one of the most emotional occurrences in your horse's life.  Can you imagine being pushed, rushed or shoved into an unstable enclosure.  It may initially take some time and energy, but the payoff is well worth it.  There are many techniques that can be used to accomplish this task - we thought we would bring you one such method.

Better Gas Mileage on Trailer Towing Vehicles
 
 
 

One of the most frequent factors in poor engine performance and fuel economy that we see in our service department is lack of proper maintenance. Today's high-tech engines require clean engine oil of the correct type and viscosity, clean fuel filters and clean air filters.

We use only genuine Motorcraft fluids and filters - the same parts that were factory installed on your vehicle when it was new. Motorcraft engine air filters are manufactured by Donaldson and are designed to trap smaller particulate matter than lower quality aftermarket brands. Motorcraft oil filters and Motorcraft heavy-duty engine oil is also engineered for use in your Power Stroke diesel engine.

Every time the expert technicians in our service department change the oil and filter on your trailer towing vehicle, we perform a 21-point inspection of your vehicle as recommended by Ford Motor Company. We don't stop at just only checking and topping up all the fluids like some, we also check the exterior lighting, the operation of wipers and washers, the condition of heater and radiator hoses, air filter, drive belts, battery and battery terminals, exhaust system, drive axles, steering and linkage, front suspension components, brake system including linings, lines, hoses and parking brake. We also check for any fluid leaks from the power steering system, engine, transmission, cooling system, axles and transfer case. Finally we measure your tire tread depth, inspect for damage and abnormal wear patterns and then set tire pressures to factory specifications.

This comprehensive inspection allows us to identify concerns with your vehicle in the early stages, saving you time, possible additional damage and expense, as well as the inconvenience of an unscheduled breakdown, certainly a huge consideration far from home while towing your trailer with livestock onboard.

Ford Motor Company has outlined the recommended scheduled maintenance specifically for your vehicle and type of driving. Oil and filter changes at regular intervals are very important, but the manufacturer also recommends replacement of fuel filters, transmission fluid replacement and engine coolant service at specific intervals.

The combination of having our trained experts perform a complete 21-point inspection every service visit, along with performing the other scheduled maintenance as outlined in your owner guide will not only give you peace of mind, but may help to reduce your total cost of ownership and enhance your vehicle's resale value at trade-in time.

The Basics of Understanding Your Equine Athlete's State of Wellness

Horse with Head Turned
Your equine - be it a horse, pony, mule or donkey - when approached as an athlete, has many facets that contribute to his overall wellness.  To manage and maintain the body means to manage and maintain a multiplicity of facets.  For instance, improving the environment and body can be a good step toward building a secure mental attitude (mind) for your healthy athlete. 
As a prey animal, the horse's most critial focus for survival is the mind.  When balance exists, the horse is content, confident and pain free.  When there is an imbalance, the negative effects on the autonomic nervous system can potentially result in behavorial issues (such as pacing, cribbing, uncooperative attitude or biting), ulcers, colic, adrenal gland exhaustion, disease susceptibility and poor overall condition.  Pain, fear, anxiety and discomfort are contra-survival to the horse.  It is the horse owner's responsibility to eliminate these problems and continuously improve the quality of life for his or her horse.
 
Focusing on just one area and diminishing the importance of other areas is a recipe for an unhealthy horse.  Utilize a well-rounded team of equine professionals - veterinarians, acupuncturists, certified chiropractors, physiotherapists, trainers, dentists, farriers and equine nutritionists - to balance the special  needs of the horse.  It takes an investment of time, passion, ingenuity and money to achieve your horse's wellness.
