Description

Class Experience

This is an advanced equine science course for those students who have taken my Introduction to Equine Science course or those who have previous horse experience. 
This course will explore the following: 
Week 1- care of the pregnant mare and pre- delivery prep and warning signs 
Week 2- delivery 
Week 3- postpartum mare and foal 
Week 4- the foals first days and potential problems 
Week 5- foal nutrition and feeding
Week 6- care of the foal

I am a certified veterinary technician and have bred, raised, trained and shown horses for many years. I have been teaching veterinary and equine science in both the college level and for youth for 7 years and have enjoyed every minute of it! It is exciting to share my love for horses with the next generation of equestrians!

Handouts may be provided and will be posted week by week in the classroom for printing. These are not mandatory for class, but will provide follow up materials to class discussions when appropriate.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

55 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.

This course does discuss the mare (female horses) reproductive tract during the discussion of prenatal care and foaling. Some photos will include birthing and may contain the afterbirth and/or blood/fluids. Additional YouTube videos on birthing and mare/foal care may be shown in class, or posted for followup viewing.
