    Trail riding offers numerous benefits for both horse and rider! Some of the advantages include: 1. **Improved physical fitness**: Trail riding provides a great workout for the rider, building strength, balance, and coordination. 2. **Mental well-being**: Being in nature has a calming effect, reducing stress and anxiety. 3. **Bonding with the horse**: Trail riding fosters a deeper connection and trust between horse and rider. 4. **Exploration and adventure**: Discover new trails, scenic views, and experience the thrill of exploring the great outdoors. 5. **Social opportunities**: Join fellow riders, make new friends, and enjoy group outings. 6. **Horse's mental and physical health**: Trail riding provides exercise, mental stimulation, and a change of scenery for the horse. 7. **Development of horsemanship skills**: Trail riding helps riders improve their balance, seat, and communication with the horse. 8. **Connection with nature**: Trail riding allows riders to appreciate and connect with the natural world. Overall, trail riding offers a unique combination of physical activity, mental relaxation, and bonding with nature and your horse!

    Sir Arthur this afternoon.... Monday, April 1st
    3/31/24, 9pm Update on Sir Arthur Sir Arthur, coming from an auction barn, (auction barns are notorious for strangles and other equine diseases) is being quarantined for 30 days, and no one will be allowed near him for his safety, our other horses safety and your safety. Besides donating to his gofundme page, here is a list of items we will accept for him. * hay (good grass hay and/or grass hay/alfalfa mix * good quality senior horse feed * alfalfa pellets (in a lot of starving horses, they tend to choke for eating too fast, so I will soak alfalfa pellets to make a wet base to add his senior feed to so his grain will not ball up in his throat, causing a choke. He did choke today, but I was able to clear it. * apples. I will cut up apples into small pieces to add to his grain mixture. * bedding in the form of straw or bedding pellets. Much love and a huge thank you to all who have donated/will donate! @everyone
    Always!
    This is so me!
    A beautiful afternoon here at Nation Road Horse Rental! It's 4:43 p.m., and the moon is out....

    We are called the "Butler County Hoofbeatz 4H Club. Our main interest is equines (horses) and welcome new members! You can reside anywhere in Butler County and be a part of our club. We typically meet in the Oxford area. You do not need to own a horse to enjoy being a member of the Butler County Hoofbeatz 4H Club! There are great ways to be equine involved without owning a horse such as the "Horseless Equine" project. Come join a great group of kids, both town and rural, as we learn, play and have fun together! 4-H is a non-formal educational, youth development program. Your child will be a Cloverbud if they are 5 years old and in Kindergarten through 7-8 years old and in second grade. Once a kiddo is 8 years old and in 3rd grade, they are a typical 4H member. Please contact me with any questions! Most meetings are held here at Nation Road Horse Rental!
    It sure does!

    Let's make a difference this year! Nation Road Horse Rental will be accepting donations at our office between now and December 9th. Several of our workers have already volunteered to then take all items collected to Hope's Closet. Hope's Closet is a clothing boutique in Butler County that only serves local foster children. Children can go to Hope's Closet for a shopping visit twice a year during spring/summer and fall/winter seasonal changes. We also offer shopping for back to school and for when a child’s size changes. All items are distributed through personalized shopping visits where foster children and their foster parent work with a volunteer assistant to select items. Hope's Closet served 250 foster children in the first month of the fall shopping season and they could use help keeping the SHOE racks stocked! Key needs are for little kid sizes 9-13 for girls and 8-13 for boys, and big kid sizes 1-3 for girls and 2-6 for boys. They take the following items in ALL sizes: - clothing - pajamas - socks - underwear - coats/ jackets - hats/ gloves - shoes - books - infant toys - new in the box toys/ games (Christmas is coming up) - backpacks - school supplies - baby gear/ equipment - toiletries (shampoo, soap, hairbrushes, combs, deodorant, hair ties, barrettes, makeup, lotion, etc.) - youth sporting equipment (baseball glove, basketball, cleats, shin guards, etc.) - kid friendly wall decor for their room They only accept lightly used or new items (no stains, holes, rips, etc.) as to help the children in foster care feel confident and special. (Think like a boutique-like Goodwill).
    We are coming up on the last weekend of our "2023 Riding Season" here at Nation Road Horse Rental. The trees are alive with many colors, the air is crisp and the trail riding is awesome! Give us a call at 513-255-5752 to reserve your ride time this Saturday, October 28th and/or Sunday, October 29th!
