A full consultation including rider and horse measurements is $100. If someone just wants to assess the fit of their saddle to their horse that would be $50 and includes a copy of the " seven points of saddle fit" noting on each of these points how good the fit is on their saddle or where it doesn't fit. It will also include a written estimate of adjustment costs, if needed, in case they would like to have adjustments done int the future. (If they do want adjustments then full measurements are required and the additional $50 is needed).

Barefoot and Performance - A Reality
Barefoot Trim Clinic

Cindy "Hawk" Sullivan and her assistant Anne Coley (aka "Tree") will conduct a full day clinic at Horrell Hill Dressage Center. We will start with a lecture followed by dissection of a cadaver hoof - the dissection is very important so everyone can see what is inside the hoof, then we will do a couple of consults prior to lunch. Consults will be for people wanting an opinion about their horse, but not a trim. After lunch we will accept 6 horses for trimming.

The fee schedule is as follows:
Lecture and dissection only $ 25.00
Full day attendance $ 40.00
Trim $ 40.00
Consult for participant paying full attendance
(limited to two horses for entire clinic) free

Please sign up, as clinic will fill very fast. We will accept no more than 12 full attendance participants and 6 horses for trimming. Stabling is provided, you clean up your stall afterwards and provide your own hay/feed. Please bring your own lunch.
To sign up please send check (made payable to HHDC). Pre registration ends May 15th. No late registration.
