I want to thank the 406 Arena, Vaughn, MT for all that the Fryburger family does for our community and outreach to our state and beyond! We have been involved in the horse industry for over 40 years and we have lived in this community for 32, so we know greatness in the horse industry when we see and live it~ The Schooling Show Summer Series is fantastic, 406 Vaulting Club is impressive and a welcome addition to all, NCSHA provides so much to those who crave cow work, reining, etc., and their support of 4-H is unmatched! They also provide an amazing outdoor trail course and arena!!

Happy springtime from WSE! I have 3 openings available starting in May 😁 I have ground (all facets of off horse learning), riding sessions and a lunging program which identifies balance issues in riders and how to understand our body and it's application to the horse in order to create the ultimate balance between horse and rider. Whether you are a Beginner, Intermediate or Advanced in your experience, I provide lesson horses for all ages and levels, or we can work together with your horse ☺️- Recommendations are on this site.
Message me for additional info 😁

Did you know we are in the middle of Flu and Rhino season for horses right now?

If our infectious disease specialists determine there is concern for risk of spread of infectious disease at our hospital and/or on ambulatory calls, our clients will be the first to know and we will adjust our plans accordingly.

Unfortunately, participating in horse activities is not a matter of IF you will encounter infectious disease, rather, WHEN you will encounter it. Just like seasonal cold and flu in people, horses experience different infectious diseases in different seasons.

As all have seen across the country in the last year, viruses like Flu and Herpes can behave similar to viruses in people in that, most of the time, symptoms resolve on their own or with help of fever-reducing medications. On occasions, these diseases can be more severe – think of the neurologic form of Herpes, pneumonia with Flu, purpura side-effects of Strangles, etc.

At Montana Equine, we have specialists in infectious diseases to include diagnosis and treatment of severe cases of infectious disease, as well as having extensive experience with testing and control of outbreaks. Our entire team is highly trained in quarantine and isolation of infectious disease in the veterinary setting to keep ALL our patients safe and competing.
