On a beautiful afternoon we visited Waterford Farm in Lebanon, Pennsylvania which is an American Saddlebred Farm. We learned about "Barn Life" and the day-to-day operations on running the farm. Dr. Andrews was performing ultrasounds on mares to see if they were ready for artificial insemination; one mare was ready and we were able to learn about the procedure and see it with our eyes. The father of the foal is Samur, and hopefully in 11 months, we will see the healthy foal!
This afternoon, we enjoyed a trip to Lebanon, Pennsylvania where we visited the Waterford Farm. We enjoyed learning about barn life, American Saddlebred horses, also referred to as "show horses," and all of the operational details that go into running a modern day horse farm.
Tim showed us various techniques for riding American Saddlebred horses and we were able to feed the horses a tasty snack of carrots and apples. Samur, a World Champion Sire, had such a gentle temperament. But perhaps our favorite part of this outdoor adventure was seeing all of the foals!
