Natural Horse Concepts That Help Your Horse Thrive™
In one of my previous articles called When the Experts Fail Us, I addressed how the health care industry for humans, and for our animals, has failed us on numerous occasions. I gave personal examples as well as mentioning one very famous example, a very special lady named Temple Grandin.
HBO came out with a movie in 2010 about her life, and I’d like to offer a short review that may encourage you to see it if you haven’t already.

Anyone who spends time with horses faces the challenge of staying warm in the winter months and cool in the summer. Being from Texas, all I have to do is wait 30 minutes and the weather will change, sometimes from one extreme to the next.
Do you struggle with the decision of what to wear when you want to spend time with your horse, especially in cold weather? I don’t know about you, but I’ve tried many different brands of clothing and I’ve finally settled on one brand that consistently lives up to what it promises.

When I first started down the natural hoof care route in 2002, I struggled with the concept of creating more movement for my horses. I hated confining them to a “dry lot” and I couldn’t allow my laminitic-prone horse out on a big pasture with lush green grass.
