Children's Basic Horsemanship
Saturday, August 9, 2008
9–11 am
Lisa Estes and Mary Hull, GVEC Clinic Assistants
Calling all children! We will spend a summer morning teaching horse-crazy youngsters some of the ins and outs of horse anatomy and basic veterinary science. Kids will learn how to take their horse's temperature, pulse, and respiratory rate. They will listen to a live horse's heart with a stethoscope, learn how to weigh a horse, and how to handle the feet. They will view at real horse cells under a microscope, and look at x-rays. A fun time is guaranteed for all! Parents are welcome to watch from the sidelines.
