| A New Product for Joint Care | 05 14, 2010 | Friday afternoon found me driving to Woodinville, Wash., to attend an open house for a new client, Joint Oats 4 Horses. I found their information while looking through other horse magazines and gave them a call. They are only a couple of hours away so my husband and I decided to go meet the staff. | Horse Ownership | Consumables | Health Products | Horse Health | Holistic/Alternative Care | Feed & Nutrition | Preventive Care | Blog |

| Book Barn: Why We Ride Women Writers on The Horses In Their Lives | 07 01, 2010 | I remember my step-daughter and her love affair with horses as one of the greatest aspects of my own relationship with her. Lauren was a “problem child.” Born prematurely, she spent her first months in an intensive care unit. Lack of a motherly bond (she could not be touched for months) made her distrustful and difficult as a teen; horses, however, cut through the hard exterior. On a horse’s back, Lauren found moments of utmost confidence, joy, camaraderie, beauty and acceptance. | Horse Ownership | Books |

From there, the Barb horse went to North Africa and the Iberian Peninsula. They were already in Spain with the Hebrew people when they were reintroduced to that area by the Moors and Berbers. | Horse Ownership | U.S. & World News |

| Breed Profile: The Classical Lipizzan | 06 01, 2009 | The Lipizzan breed began in 1580 when Archduke Charles II established a stud farm in Lipizza (Lipica), using the best imported Spanish horses--Andalusians, Barbs and Berbers--bred to the local Karst horses. The Karst horses were white in color, small, slow to mature, and extremely tough. Most people have the false idea that Lipizzans inherited their high stepping gait from the Spanish horse. It was, however, the Karst horse who gave the Lipizzan this trait. | Horse Ownership | Dressage | U.S. & World News |
| Breed Profile: The Mediterranean Miniature Donkey | 03 01, 2009 | The term "miniature donkey" is sometimes used to refer to donkeys of any breed that happen to be small, but a true member of the Mediterranean Miniature Donkey breed traces its ancestry to Sicily and Sardinia, and before that, the North African coast. Miniature donkeys average 32"-34" in height, with a 36" maximum for the breed standard and a recommended 30" minimum for health reasons. | Horse Ownership | U.S. & World News | Horse Ownership | News |
