LEOLA, Pa.--Your new barn isn’t finished until you build the most important component—the stalls!
Sunset Valley Metal Craft specializes in quality horse stalls and components—Dutch doors, Dutch windows, aisle/sliding doors, hardware and custom metal fabrications.
Since 1975, Sunset Valley Metalcraft has been building quality horse stalls that offer rich beauty and detail combined with safety and durability.
They’ve perfected their standard horse stall designs with practical features and sturdiness in mind.
Their standard horse stalls are available in steel or aluminum construction with over 100 color options.
All stalls feature a quality powder coating and a zinc epoxy undercoat for a longer lifespan and maximum durability.
Stalls are available in a variety of styles, which include feeder doors and v-yoke and drop gates:
• Freestanding Modular Stalls are a modular stall supported by the barn post work to support the fronts.
• Free standing Stalls with Posts are inserted between structural posts in the barn.
• European Style Stalls include hand-polished brass finials, trim strips in the top and bottom, and 2” on center bar spacing so a horse’s hoof cannot slip through between the bars.
• Freestanding Stalls have self-supporting fronts and partitions with custom arch top for a European touch.
“Whether you would like to make changes to one of our standard horse stall designs or have an idea that’s all your own, we can make it happen,” said sales manager Mike Rinier. “Show us your design or a picture, and we’ll gladly customize your stalls to your preferences and specifications. Or simply tell us what your needs are, and we will make recommendations based on what we think is best for you and your horses. As always, feel free to visit our shop in Leola, Lancaster County, Pa., for additional inspiration!”
To learn more, call (717) 656-8219 or visit sunsetvalleymetalcraft.com.

It is 7 a.m. on a Saturday morning and several students have been working in the stables on Delaware Valley University’s campus for a while.
They have fed the horses and are now cleaning stalls.
This same scene replays every morning at the Equine Center, 365 days a year, regardless of weather.
Students are in the barn by 6 a.m. in the summer to stay ahead of the heat.
Each year, incoming freshmen majoring in equine science or equine management attend a mandatory equine orientation before classes officially start.
This highly focused week is designed to introduce the students to the horses, facilities, faculty, and most importantly – to each other.
This week is the beginning of building a close cohort of students who will spend the majority of their time together over the next four years.
“Our students tell me that they feel like this is home for them, that this is where they should be,” shared Dr. Cory Kieschnick ’07, Ed.D. ’22, chair of the Department of Equine Science and Management and director of Equestrian Teams for the University. “There is a lot of bonding that takes place during orientation week and you see the value of this as they work closely together over the next four years.”
The equine programs at Delval continue with robust in enrollment of more than 100 students.
“Our programs place major emphasis on the safety and welfare of our horses,” said Dr. Kieschnick. “The concept of a ‘social license to operate’ has become a focus in our industry. This is not new for DelVal, in fact, it is incorporated in everything we do.” In addition, the strong work ethic that our students bring every day, along with daily opportunities for hands-on learning, really set DelVal graduates apart in the field. Employers are looking for specific hands-on skills and the equine faculty integrate these skills with the curriculum. DelVal students don’t just learn about equine nutrition from a book; they are weighing and body condition scoring horses. And they study the impact of utilizing feeding technologies like slow feeder hay nets, which help to regulate hay intake.
Graduates of DelVal’s equine programs find success in many arenas, including careers as managers, riders or breeders, or for other companies that support the equine industry.
Others attend veterinary school to fulfill their dream of being a large animal veterinarian.
Where ever they go, they are always part of the Delval family.

OCALA, Fla.--Drive up from the glitz and bikini glamour of the Florida coastline, towards the center of the state, and you’ll find yourself in Ocala, almost at the very center of Florida.
Here there are rolling green farms and lush forests, sparkling clear springs and rivers, and a love of all things equine.
Called “The Horse Capital of the World™” for a reason, Ocala has become the epicenter of equestrian excellence in the United States – where premier trainers, riders, and professional breeders – including Kentucky Derby contenders.
Some come as snowbirds and see the pastoral landscape and calm, easy energy.
Almost everyone falls in love.
Like so many, Tami Fratis was drawn to the beauty and vibrance of Ocala, as well as the community’s investment in and passion for the equine industry.
She loved it so much that she took a giant leap, leaving Philadelphia to pursue what she dubbed the BHAG – “the Big Hairy Audacious Goal” – of buying a horse farm and training facility here.
Nothing was more appealing than immersing herself in a vibrant community centered around her passion.
She purchased Tamarian Farms, a beautiful 60 acre property, and created a first-rate training facility, welcoming professionals and aspiring hopefuls on equal footing in a judgment-free environment.
Just three miles from the World Equestrian Center, it’s fast becoming a favorite haven for riders and professional competitors to come and work out in one of the areas only indoor 100’ x 200’ arena with GGT footing like riders find at WEC.
Tamarian also has 25 acres of wooded trails for cooling down horses or bonding with fellow riders.
It’s also a place where people know their horses will be comfortably stabled and treated with the same care as family members.
People new to riding or who want to get back in the saddle again find an atmosphere of encouragement and positivity at Tamarian Farms, with trainers who help them restore their confidence and partnership with the horse.
If you happen to be in Ocala, you should stop by.
You may find home here and fall in love, just like we did.

Shawna Karrasch is a pioneer in the use of Positive Reinforcement Training with horses.
Her powerful and humane behavioral training techniques are an eye-opening experience for equine professionals, competitors, and amateurs alike.
Shawna began her training career far outside the equestrian world, working with large marine mammals.
Animals such as dolphins, sea lions and orcas cannot be coerced.
Only positive reinforcement methods can be used to ask these magnificent creatures to participate voluntarily in activities with human trainers. (You may be able to force a horse onto a trailer, but just try it with a walrus!.)
When introduced to the world of top equestrian competition, Shawna saw immediately how reward-based training could be used to engage the horse’s willingness in equestrian pursuits.
By using Shawna’s Positive Reinforcement Training methods, Olympian Beezie Madden taught her famous show jumper Judgment (now Judgment ISF) to overcome his fear of water and go on to win the $1,000,000 CN International at Spruce Meadows, among many other international show-jumping victories.
Beezie’s spectacular success over decades as a top international competitor on a series of great horses is a testament not only to her extraordinary talent and skill as a rider and trainer, but also in part to the reward-based training system that Shawna first developed on the Madden farm.
Shawna’s infectious enthusiasm, sense of humor, years of training experience and rapport with animals and humans makes her one of the finest positive-reinforcement trainers in North America.
On Sept. 29, Shawna will be speaking at Dressage at Devon from 1-4 pm in the All Devon Club under the main grandstand.
This is a ticketed event and the topic will be: Taking the Science and Theory of Positive Reinforcement to Serious Ridden Work.
Contact: Jessie Hillegas at www.shawnakarrasch.com or 570-337-8347.
Art and technical design have always been a part of Eileen Johnson’s life.
Raised in Connecticut, her father was a naval architect and her mother a gifted artist.
One could say that artistry and technical design was in her blood.
As a young girl, Eileen had an intense passion to create.
At the age of 6, she received her first sewing machine as a Christmas gift, and her little hands became busy with creations of clothes for her dolls.
A few years later she discovered her other love, horses.
The desire to create and her passion for horses has remained a constant throughout her life.
As a teenager she began to dabble in jewelry design, taking classes that ensured the development of her art.
After school one could always find Eileen riding horses or at the stables caring for them.
As a young woman she attended the University of Kentucky, where her interest in metal work led her to the field of Dental Technology, and the horse environment kept her content.
Training at UK leaned toward sole proprietorship and later, as a Dental Laboratory business owner, she was able to successfully meet the needs of her clients and continue to dabble in her jewelry creations.
Although dental prosthetics paid the bills, Eileen dreamed of the day when she could become a full time designer for jewelry and accessories with a different twist.
After 25 years of her work in the dental technology field, Eileen decided to retire.
She took the opportunity to travel to England where, as a working student, she trained and studied to earn British Horse Society Certifications in Horse Care and Riding, along with an International Groom’s Certificate.
During that time her aunt and godmother handed down a family heirloom engraved in 1909 and asked her to do something with it.
She tucked it away and toiled in her mind’s eye how to re work the piece into a more contemporary design she could use as her signature line for the upcoming venture.
Eileen wanted to present a change she would call ‘Tempi’ in the jewelry and accessory line.
When Eileen returned to the United States she eventually settled in Maryland, all the while developing Tempi Design Studio towards a full time endeavor.
It seems that all exquisite jewelry has a unique signature design, and Tempi’s pieces are no exception.
Eileen has been able to combine her two loves of the Horse and metallurgy to create magnificent, near 3D jewelry.
These have caught the eye of not only equestrian experts, but animal lovers as well.
Now, as business is expanding into more subjects, it is taking on a mind of its own with special requests and custom work.
Eileen continues to find inspiration in the beauty of nature she dearly loves, and the magnificent horse.
You will often find her at a trade show or locked away in her studio, molding her next vision, or yours, into life.
See Tempi Designs at Dressage at Devon Sept. 26 to Oct. 1 in Booth/Cottage #8 .

If you’ve been shopping for equestrian clothing in the last few months, chances are you’ve stumbled across Novella Equestrian – a sunshirt brand who has made huge strides in less than a year.
Each design is not only named after a specific horse but is carefully crafted with the horse’s personality and story in mind.
Taryn Young is the Founder of Novella Equestrian.
She also is a well known influencer in the equestrian world and the person behind “Warmbloods + Wine”.
She created the equestrian lifestyle account Warmbloods + Wine in December 2018 and since the creation of her social accounts, Taryn cultivated a hyper-engaged following of over 20,000 equestrian enthusiasts.
Her equestrian journey has also caught the attention of brands like Ariat, Purina, Pikeur, PS of Sweden, Kerrits and Goode Rider.
The months during Covid left Taryn Young uncertain about her future in the corporate world.
Taryn found herself continuously working with her favorite equestrian brands to promote their clothing.
"I thought to myself: why wouldn't I do this on my own based on my fabric, fit and design preferences? I had a good grasp of the market and what I would do differently to flatter every rider body," Taryn said.
That's how Novella was born.
She named the brand Novella because it means 'new, fresh and YOUNG' (her last name) in Italian.
Coincidentally, it also means short story, and each design is named and designed after a real horse and its story.
“It felt like it was meant to be,” Taryn said.
With features like UPF 30+, forgiving and flattering fabrics that adapt to your body's changes and functional designs, NOVELLA Equestrian caters to all shapes and sizes in & out of the saddle.
It has caught the likes of top U.S. dressage riders and retailers in the US and Canada.
“I love that people love Novella. It’s the first shirt a lot of my friends will choose to wear and that means the world to me.”
Shop Novella Equestrian at shopnovella.com and follow Taryn Young as she shares her horse journey and favorite equestrian finds on @WarmbloodsandWine on Instagram.
WEST CHESTER, Pa.--Forty-one years of engraving nameplates on site at Dressage at Devon on the iconic Devon Horse Show Grounds.
Of all the shops that have been at Dressage at Devon over the past 48 years, we have been there longer than any of them.
If you’ve been down to our booth, #62 at the far end of Barn 1, you’ll find it hard to believe that when we started everything fit into a 1978 Toyota Corolla.
We’ve made countless nameplates for anything and everything equestrian related.
We hope we have helped to create lots of memories.
We’re very grateful to all of you for allowing us to do that and we cherish the friendships we have made.
Did you know we keep track of a lot of things you ask us?
We have to confess, some of them leave us dumbstruck.
“How much is the five dollar plate?” is our favorite. Yes, there are silly questions.
It doesn’t seem possible that it’s been 12 years since we moved down to our little corner of the show grounds from the Fall Festival area and started our Green Hill Collection of leather and Cordura goods.
We’re very excited about the new leather colors we’ve added this year.
We’ll be featuring a very vintage burgundy in everything from halters to our famous pony bracelets.
There is also a new olive green and emerald green.
We can attach our nameplates to your equipment, so come prepared!
Since we do the engraving on site it’s best to make The Engraver your first stop at Dressage at Devon so we’ll be able to have your orders ready later that same day.

A quality fence can be a significant investment but is a necessary part of having an animal.
Compromising on the quality of materials or proper installation will only lead to stress, disappointment and regret.
Nobody wants to find that their animals are missing or get a phone call that they have strayed to the neighbor’s house or are out on the road.
Repairing an existing fence is a good first option and can buy you some time, but eventually the repairs will cost almost as much as replacing the fence.
Sometimes going through the process of having a fence installed can be just as stressful.
ProFence LLC brings a level of professionalism to the fencing industry that will make the process as stress-free as possible.
Our friendly staff takes your calls, emails, or website inquiries, and our estimators will discuss your needs and provide you with a free estimate.
Prior to your installation, we will work through scheduling and discuss what to expect next.
When the crew arrives on-site, they will review what is to be done and make any necessary adjustments.
You can then relax, sit back and watch how it’s done.
ProFence LLC uses quality materials resulting a fence that is sturdy and will last for years to come.
We are so confident in our fence installations that we offer a 10 Year Warranty.
Free Estimates, Quality Materials, And Professional Service makes your next fence stress-free.

Fry’s Equine Insurance Agency has been working with horsemen since 1984.
Insuring your horse is a way to protect your finances if there is an accident or sickness.
Mortality insurance provides coverage on the life of the horse and includes theft and some colic surgery.
You can also purchase different medical options such as major medical covering required treatments and surgeries.
Another policy to consider is liability coverage.
If your horse hurts someone or damages their property do you have protection under your homeowners policy?
If you board your horse, you still have a liability exposure.
Your horse could kick another horse or get out on the road.
You will be named in a claim as owner of the horse and you will need to defend yourself.
For less than a few hours of an attorney’s time you can have a policy with a $1,000,000 limit.
Do you offer boarding at your place or are you giving lessons or training?
If so you should contact Fry’s Equine Insurance to discuss a Commercial Liability policy.
This policy is tailored to your specific needs and can include coverage for boarding, lessons, training, show, clinics, and day camps.
Fry’s Equine Insurance also writes farm policies.
Many homeowner’s policies exclude coverage on any building used in a business.
If you don’t have an equine-specific policy, you could be missing important coverage – such as fire/storm damage to your barn or not enough coverage to replace it if there’s a total loss.

The classes in which the sale horse is entered will be listed in the catalog.
Horses can be seen while warming up and competing.
