Horse breeding is a multi-million dollar international industry, with some breeders earning millions in sire rights by breeding award-winning male horses.
For purebred horses, careful selection of the male parent (the "sire") and the female parent (the "dam") is essential to successful breeding.
From conception to foaling, horse breeding today is carefully managed through modern technology.
Whether you are breeding horses for racing, equestrian competition or the family farm, a firm understanding of the breeding and foaling process will ensure a successful outcome.

Dental care for horses differs significantly from that of humans or even cats and dogs.
Due to their vegetarian diet and manner of eating, a horse's teeth work more like a gristmill, constantly grinding and mashing down their food.
The horse's teeth are therefore designed to keep growing as an adaptation to the manner in which they eat.
Therefore, horses usually need a dental checkup every six months to have their teeth floated (evened out) in order for the horse's bite to remain healthy, and so that their food is evenly ground for healthy swallowing and digestion.

We like to think of our horses as big, strong and invincible, but there are some common horse health problems that can become dangerous if not promptly diagnosed and treated.
It is important for you to be able to recognize the symptoms of potential health issues quickly.
Lameness-The number one complaint for horses, lameness can be caused by a long list of problems.
Know your horse's healthy gait and be able to recognize any changes in it quickly.
Even head bobbing can be a sign of lameness as your horse tries to compensate for pain in other areas of its body.
