An Openly Gay Horse....What?!

'She who must' has now booked her round the world trip and I'm broke...at least for a few months. I found a few 'different' horsey type stories and videos this week and I hope you enjoy them. I've now got a video camera and am looking at my promise of a video newsletter. I'm hoping that it won't damage my circulation when you see the full 'catastrophe.....'

The First Openly Gay Racehorse To Compete? - yep, you read it here and there's a video to prove it. It could only happen in the US couldn't it, or do any of you know better??

This TV station has a daily series entitled, 'Had a Bad Day?' and then showcases the Top 5 bad days on that date. It's worth watching the video for a laugh and top of the list is what happens when your buggy horse gets spooked and crashes into a police vehicle...what joy...ouch!!

My friend Roger Bourdon has a nice video in his weekly newsletter. It shows the horse in all its relationships to man. Great music too.

If you closely follow a horse around and then clap your hands behind him he's likely to show you his displeasure. Watch this idiot get his just rewards in this video as he does exactly that.

Here's a nice online horse quiz which you might find useful and you could also try it with the kids or, if you teach riding, your pupils.

Nowadays, more and more horse owners are looking beyond the realms of conventional medicine to alternative or holistic therapies when seeking healthcare options for their horses. Here's a short and valuable look at it.

With the warm weather coming and your horses much more active it's worth having a tub of H10 ointment in the tack box for all those scratches, abrasions, cuts and bruises. As I've said before, there's nothing quite like it and if you don't believe me you can read what other people think too. We still have a 2 for 1 offer that's worth a look.

Have a great week!
