Emergencies can happen any time.  If you own a dog, it's not if... but when you'll experience a medical emergency or your dog will be faced with a painful condition.  Our trainers will teach you how to recognize and assess the situation, respond accordingly, and give you the confidence to help in any emergency.

We offer a full line of Neighmaste Natural Horse Care products.  Neighmaste provides an array of essential oil products to benefit both the horse and rider.
