Learn to Feed your Steed! - An Equine Nutrition Clinic

  • Front and Center Horse Riding Academy 4798 East Stable Lane Port Orchard, WA, 98366 United States (map)

Join FCHRAcademy as we host Equine Nutrition Specialist Natalie Shaw from Wilco/Purina for an afternoon of education and advice!

Natalie Shaw has been employed as an Equine Nutrition Specialist since graduating from Montana State University with an equine specialty in Animal Science. Her lifelong activities with horses coupled with her 11 years of consulting experience in the Pacific Northwest has given her a thorough understanding of regional equine nutritional needs. She achieved the industry’s Professional Animal Scientist (Equine) certification in 2013. 

Currently, she is pursuing a Master of Science degree from Washington State University. Her studies include a thesis based research project to understand the growing and harvesting effects on the non-structural carbohydrate values of teff hay. Her passion for this topic grew from a recognition of a pressing need for options to feed the growing number of overweight and obese horses.

Natalie is an accomplished equestrian and well-respected speaker. She is a graduate A in the United States Pony Club, and a current National Examiner traveling the country to certify its members. She is an active competitor in the sport of Three Day Eventing giving her a unique personal touch to her nutrition recommendations.

This free clinic will offer eight, one-on-one sessions to discuss your horse's individual needs.
