Rutgers Equine Science Center

Dr. Karyn Malinowski, an accomplished equine scientist, is the Founding Director of the Rutgers Equine Science Center at the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station (NJAES). She joins Helena today to talk about current best practices in horsekeeping that are actually backed by scientific research.

EP 30: Emma Ford Returns with Horsemanship Tips

World Class Grooming Pro, Emma Ford, returns to Stall and Stable to chat with us about some interesting tips from her clinic in Rhode Island a few weeks ago.

We talk winter blanketing, turnout, horse care, and transporting Olympic horses by air and by truck. We also chat about what kinds of things the team at Phillip Dutton Eventing do in order to prepare their horses for a possible run for the gold in Tokyo this year. As always with Ms. Ford, it is a very interesting and fun conversation. Listen in!

EP 28: Certifying Your Barn with CHA

How do you know you can trust a barn to provide quality care for your horse? How do you define the word “quality”?

If you ask 10 equestrians what “quality” means in terms of horse care, there is no doubt you will get ten different answers! That’s a problem when business owners open their barns for boarding. It may not be their problem, but it is certainly a problem for the customer – the horse owner.

As with any equestrian professional or service provider, accreditation is key to establishing trust with the customer.

In this episode, guest Christy Landwehr of the Certified Horsemanship Association chats with Helena about what certification means to equine businesses, why a barn owner should consider getting certified, and how one goes about the process. Listen in!

EP 23: A Conversation with Emma Ford

We’re going world class today with a guest who works at the top level of our sport. She’s the kind of person who’s brain you could pick for days on end and still never feel satisfied. Her name is Emma Ford, and her career as a professional groom, most notably as Olympian Phillip Dutton’s groom, affords her an expertise in horse care that few can rival. The exception would be Cat Hill. You see, Emma and Cat wrote a fabulous book together. It’s called World Class Grooming for Horses, and every horse owner should have this book in their horse library because IT. IS. AWESOME. And by awesome, we mean, Has Lots of Pictures.

Emma joins Helena in this episode to talk about how she got to where she is today, what has kept her on the Phillip Dutton Eventing team for so long, and a few pro tips you may be surprised to hear. Listen in!

EP 9: The Perfect Boarding Barn – Or Not

Many of us have had to board our horses at one point or another. I bet many of you, like me, have had good experiences and bad experiences. If we’re lucky we learn from both, so that ultimately, we have more good experiences than bad ones. In truth, there is no perfect boarding barn – just like there are no perfect boarders. But you know, things don’t have to be perfect to be ideal. 

In this episode, we explore the concept (or is it fantasy?) of the perfect boarding barn with Terry Golson of the Cooperative Horse. Terry is a lifelong horsewoman who combines classic horsemanship with a reward-focused methodology to create enthusiastic and conflict-free partnerships between horses and riders. She joins me today to talk about how we can find (and create) the ideal boarding situation for our horses and ourselves. Listen in!
