Barn Fire Tactics & Barn Fire Tactics & Strategies/Equine Strategies/Equine EmergenciesEmergencies

Every year in the United States approximately 4500 barn fires occur and even higher numbers of barn and horse accidents. The number one solution is being trained and prepared to handle an accident or fire with a horse or other large animal. It is estimated that less then 10% of the emergency workers across the country have ever handled a horse and even less have been trained to handle a horse in an emergency situation. Our specialized courses feature live horses with live smoke in real life barn fire and emergency situations. In addition, we have designed classes for the equine owner, equine judges and technical stewards in dealing with horse and carriage driving accidents, developing an accident preparedness plan and overall safety on the show ground.
