Opening available!
Enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside at Deer Creek Equestrian Center, a boutique boarding facility in Troy Texas.

Offering private 50x100' paddocks for your horse to stay in overnight, that includes pasture turn-out with a small group during the day. You don't have to keep your horse stuck in a 12x12 stall all night with little to no room to move. Our private paddocks allow your horse to move around, and also provide shelter. Each paddock has a 12x12 loafing shed with attached 5x12 private tack/storage area.

Deer Creek Equestrian Center offers plenty of amenities for boarders to enjoy.
Our Creekside area amenities include a 150x250 ft arena, 20x40m & 20x60m dressage arenas, round pen, wash rack, restroom, and trailer parking.
Our Countyline amenities will include a 150x250 ft arena, 20x40m & 20x60m dressage arenas, round pen, wash rack, restroom, and trailer parking as well. The round pen is up and the arenas are to follow soon.
There are also trails on the owner's 477-acre family farm that boarders can enjoy as well.

We also offer pasture-only board at our Hillside pastures. Hillside has limited spots available.

I caught this perfect moment between Taryn Hill and Noelle near the end of their ride the other day.
Taryn has been getting Noelle back in shape and ready for her person.

Noelle is a 14.1 hand large pony mare that is available for an on-site lease to the right match. Noelle prefers quiet, calm and relaxed. She prefers the trails over the arena, and will happily head out for a quiet ride. She has been everywhere on our property and knows the trails. She responds best to a quiet seat and soft hands. If you are interested in a lease with Noelle, contact us for details.

Taryn is offering lessons and training at Deer Creek Equestrian Center. If you are interested in lessons, or training for your horse contact Taryn, or Deer Creek Equestrian Center. We would be happy to discuss details and options with you.

On November 18, Texas Animal Health Commission (TAHC) received information that multiple horses are exhibiting clinical signs of equine herpes myeloencephalopathy (EHM), the neurologic disease linked to equine herpes virus (EHV-1).

The extent of this EHV-1 outbreak is not yet fully known. Presentation of EHV-1 in these horses has been acute with rapid progression and high clinical severity. Investigation into the character and epidemiology of this disease event is ongoing but the need for rapid and proactive actions to curb the spread is clear.

Here are the questions discussed in the conversation on the live A and A: continue asking questions and we will answer throughout the day.

1. Should producers cancel this weekend?
- Answer: Yes, they should cancel.

2. How would you advise neighboring states to proceed with horse events?
- Answer: Less movement of horses will help resolve the outbreak faster.

3. Is BVH aware of cases outside of the Waco horses?
- Answer: Currently, only aware of cases in Waco, but expect potential spread.

4. Is this contagious to humans?
- Answer: No, it is not contagious to people.

5. Can someone who attended these races get a test at the clinic?
- Answer: Yes, they can screen horses and we will do trailer-side examinations.

6. How do you advise other disciplines to respond?
- Answer: Be discipline-specific, vaccinate, take temperatures, and practice good biosecurity.

7. Is there any risk that farriers could transmit this from barn to barn?
- Answer: Unlikely, as farriers are typically careful about infectious disease transmission.

8. How do people get vaccines without bringing their horse to the clinic?
- Answer: Vaccines require a veterinary exam, either at the clinic or on the farm, call and we can schedule this for you.

9. When do you suggest getting boosters?
- Answer: If the last vaccines were given more than 90 days ago, then as soon as possible to increase antibodies and slow virus spread.

10. What is your choice for disinfecting tech buckets, the barn, etc.?
- Answer: Avoid bleach, use accelerated hydrogen peroxide, phenols, or quaternary ammonia products. (rescue or companion)

11. How long will the virus last on surfaces if not disinfected?
- Answer: 2 days on dry surfaces, up to 2 weeks on wet surfaces.

12. Can horses have the virus without fever or nasal discharge?
- Answer: Yes, they can still be potentially contagious.

13. Can lysine or other products help prevent or build immunity?
- Answer: No, lysine and zinc have not been effective. Vaccines are the best prevention.

14. What is a normal horse temperature?
- Answer: 99 to 101.5 degrees Fahrenheit, depending on environmental conditions.

15. Is it okay to ride your horse at home if they were exposed but have no symptoms?
- Answer: Yes, but be smart about separating horses and avoid sharing tack.

16. If a horse had recent exposure in the last two days and is not vaccinated, should they be vaccinated now?
- Answer: Yes, vaccination can help reduce virus shedding and spread.

We are aware of the EHV-1 outbreak. No horses on our property are affected. But there is an outbreak as close as Waco associated with a show earlier in November. The TAHC has guidelines for biosecurity and a publication about EHV-1 that is informative. Links are listed below:https://www.tahc.texas.gov/news/brochures/TAHCFactSheet_EHM.pdf

We are monitoring the outbreak closely and will not take any outside horses at this time.
