Hello All!
We're really excited that our Paddock Paradise series launched yesterday on NHR. It will be an ongoing series of articles and we've got some great contributors lined up.
We've had 50 new visitors to the site in 24 hours. This tells me about the demand there is for such a series - people are hungry for informat...ion, for details, about Paddock Paradise. This series looks in more detail at each horse owner’s Paddock Paradise - via diagrams, video footage, photographs and asks questions on the details of their PP - the reality of what works for their horses in their environment and climate and what doesn’t.
If you have got any ideas on what else you'd like to read about people's Paddock Paradises and if you would like to contribute, please let us know.
Hope to hear from you on this page and thanks again for your support of the site so far!
