Every horseman and horsewoman had a first horse. Whether it was a bombproof old-timer or a pestering pony, each taught important lessons to their pint-sized rider.

If you want to see a rugged ol’ cowboy smile, ask him about his first horse. After he tells you the horse’s name, he’ll start rambling off stories with barely a breath in between tales. It’s remarkable that after a lifetime of riding hundreds – if not thousands – of horses, a horseman never forgets his first horse.

Although blanketing tends to be a personal decision, blanketing a horse is necessary to reduce the effects of cold or inclement weather when:

🏡 No shelter is available at turnout and the temperatures or wind chill is below 5°F.
🌧 There is a chance the horse will become wet from rain, ice, and/or freezing rain. Becoming wet is usually not a problem with snow.
✂️ The horse has had its winter coat clipped.
⏰ The horse is very young or very old.
🏝 The horse isn’t acclimated to the cold.
🐴 The horse has a body condition score of three or less.

If blanketing a horse, make sure the blanket fits properly. Poorly fitted blankets can cause sores and rub marks. Remove the blanket daily, inspect it for damage, and reposition it. Make sure the blanket is waterproof and stays dry. Never put a blanket on a wet horse.

EPM is widely considered the most important infectious neurologic disease of horses in North America and is caused by protozoal infection of the central nervous system. Horses are infected by consuming food or water contaminated with opossum s**t containing sporocysts.

Horses with EPM do not present a biosecurity risk to other animals because the disease is not transmissible between horses. An effective vaccine has yet to be developed, so the best preventative approach includes eliminating access of opossums to feed and water in order to minimize contact with opossum s**t and improving your horse's immune defenses by decreasing stress and optimizing health.

To learn more about EPM, visit the following resources:

As always, consult your veterinarian for more information and for advice tailored to your horse's specific circumstances.

National Day of the Cowgirl 🩷

is a celebration and recognition of the spirit of the American cowgirl – a spirit embodied by women who are strong, confident and resilient. Whether through farming and ranching, arts and culture or equine sports, the spirit of a cowgirl shines through women from diverse backgrounds who share a passion for the Western way of life.

We are so fortunate to know, and have the opportunity to learn from GREAT cowgirls!
