~Bonnie's Corner~

Welcome to Bonnie's Corner!

Bonnie Kibbie is an adult amateur rider and the owner of Balanced Care Equine Veterinary Services, LLC, an equine ambulatory practice specializing in chiropractic medicine and acupuncture, in Chester County, Pennsylvania. Originally from New Orleans, LA, she has been riding for most of her life and involved in the sport of eventing for the last twenty years. She has loved every aspect of the sport since her first Beginner Novice event as a child, and even met her husband, Jeff, on a cross country course (he is the owner of Equi-Sport Services, a cross country design and construction business also based in Chester County). She and Jeff live in Coatesville, PA on a quirky old polo farm with their two off-track thoroughbreds, Loki and Carl, and one exceedingly energetic Australian Cattle Dog, Rusty.

Bonnie's Blog Post # 4

Well, where should I start? In my last post, I was prepping for the one-day at Fair Hill all the way back in May, and there really aren’t words to describe how incredible the summer and fall seasons were for us. I’ll try to use the next few posts to sum up the past six (how did that happen?!) months, and give you a sneak peek at what’s in store for me and the ever-wonderful brumby this winter...

Bonnie's Blog post # 3

Today I had a jump school with Missy, final prep before Fair Hill this weekend. Loki warmed up well and felt really loose, if a bit sluggish (dressage boot camp yesterday taking its toll!). He woke right up for the jumping though. I swear, it’s never not fun to jump that horse. He’s so cute about it, too. As soon as we’re done he takes this big sigh, and, honest-to-goodness, gets this very pleased-with-himself look on his face (he knows he’s The Bomb)...

Bonnie's Blog post # 2

Today was, shall we say, rough. I haven’t ridden with anyone consistently since we got back from Florida in mid-March, and the lack of supervision was painfully obvious today. Jeff has been traveling non-stop and Missy was in Florida until April, and then in Europe with Gigi McIntosh, a para-equestrian student of hers who is making a bid for the 2016 Paralympic team (Go Gigi!), so this was the first real lesson we’d had in weeks- er, months.

Bonnie's Blog Post # 1: Introduction!

My name is Bonnie and I’m a Weenie Eventer. That is, I am scared of eventing but I also find it weirdly addicting and ridiculously fun, and I continue to do it because I love a good challenge, I’m a glutton for punishment, and I have an awesome horse who takes very good care of me. Speaking of… introductions are in order.
