Weird Horse News

It's my job, as News Editor of TheHorse.com, to stay on top of any and all breaking stories that pertain to equine health, care, management, and welfare. In the course of performing this duty, I occasionally (ok, often) stumble upon items that are just plain … well, weird. They might be funny, or sometimes sad. But they're definitely weird. Regardless, I find them interesting, and hope you do too.

Thrifty Horse Keeping

By now we all know that when the economy hurts, so do horse owners. Thrifty Horsekeeping will try to provide some relief by offering practical advice for weathering difficult economic times without giving up your horse. Each month will focus on a particular concern for horse owners facing tighter budgets – from vaccinations to feeding to horse showing to equipment. Information will be available for download in each weekly blog post, with the option to download the collective material in chapter form at the end of the month. We have sought out expert advice on each topic, but encourage readers to share their own suggestions and cost-saving tips.

Horses and the Law

Equine lawyers don’t sue horses—but what, exactly, do they do? And why does it matter? Horses and the Law brings you an in-depth look at the important legal issues affecting horse owners and exhibitors today, including liability, sales and bloodstock agents, contracts and other business concerns, taxes, the animal rights vs. animal welfare debate, and legislation. If you agree with something, or even if you don’t, feel free to comment. Just keep it tasteful. And remember that Horses and the Law does not—and cannot—address your specific legal problems, and is not a source of legal advice. For that, you should contact your own attorney.
