It’s already Mother’s day within less than a few days. Your mother is your first friend, your best friend, your forever friend. What best way to celebrate that?

Do you want delicate communication with your horse? There are several different spurs on the market and each has its own effect. When you’re not used to them, rowelled spurs may look rough, but they’re actually very gentle.

Bye, bye cold winter and welcome back slighty warmer weather and long hairs up our noses, in our mouths and eyes, and all over the floor. Shedding season is officially upon us. The hair that is shedding out during the late winter months is very normal and once it’s gone it’s time the horse’s summer coat comes in. Yay! Around this time, when the days grow longer, the horse’s body knows it’s time to start preparing for the summer months and begins to shed out the “winter coat” in preparation for the summer coat. You probably would love to hurry the shedding process along, for your horse's comfort and your own. Luckily, with all the handy currying and clipping equipment available today you don’t have to worry about this! By the time you are done reading this, you will have a complete plan to get your horse sleek and ready for the show ring this summer.
