Hi everyone!
Ashley here- in light of the recent confirmed outbreak of Strangles at a local to me barn i just wanted to take a moment to pop on here and chat about some of the steps we take to prevent spread of infection or illness.
First and foremost, we DO NOT work with Serenity Stables as a business nor do we work with any horses or horse owners with horses on their property. We are not concerned about spread from their facility, to our clients horses.
Why are we not concerned?
We take biosecuirty seriously!
We regularly monitor and observe ALL animals we work with for any signs of illness or contagion
If we see signs of illness we immediately communicate to our clients and form a plan together to put safety for all at the top of the list
We use dunk buckets to clean and sanitize rubber boots.
We DO NOT use shared scrub brushes, gloves etc. Each client gets their own clean tools.
We do not load up horses clients all into 1 day, we spread these visits out through the week so we can be extra cautious especially with a current outbreak.
We keep extras in our vehicles: extra gloves, extra boots, extra clothing, extra cleaning products and extra TIME so we can be diligent in not spreading any sort of infectious diseases.
We take the safety of ALL animals seriously.
If we can't protect the pets we care for, we're doing something very, very wrong.
These are things we've been doing naturally since the beginning but events like this give us an opportunity to speak about the little thing swe do that make a BIG impact on the well being of not just the animals but also the clients sense of safety and peace of mind.
Rest assured that we dont play around when it come sto the animals we care for and we will never, ever, ever put a dollar over a life.
Much love 🩵🩵🩵
