In February 1999 my brother passed as a result of a snowmobile accident. Two days after my brothers funeral, my horse got severely injured with a devastating eye injury. The wonderful group of people at Pond Hill Stables found me to share the news. They had called Battenkill to tell them we were coming with an equine injury. As soon as the trailer pulled in they had a 5 plus team waiting for my boy. We discussed the 3 options to recover with as Baileys eye would have to come out. They explained everything with compassion yet did not sugarcoat anything. The Stables had shared that my brother had just passed. While in surgery they keep me informed. Bailey survived surgery and was recovering well. He passed as a result of a blood clot. The staff were very upset as they hoped he could go home the following day. Yet, they were just as worried about me. I can't say enough regarding Baileys team. All staff were just as wonderful. They gave me a gift that I will forever be grateful. If I could give them more than 5 stars!

We had to have our horse put down on short notice and Dr. Velenchenko could not have been nicer. He was very considerate of our feelings at this difficult time and very calming and gentle with our old mare.
