Did you know that July 15 is National I Love Horses Day? Neither did we until just recently. We’re not sure what the origin of this day is, or what its exact purpose is, but why pass up an excuse to profess our love of horses to the world?
Thanks for participating, everyone, and Happy I Love Horses Day!

Elka Sterling
My 7-year-old Belgian Warmblood mare has been out for the last eight weeks with a serious tendon lesion. If there’s anything I’ve been reminded of it’s that she’s much more than just my teammate in riding but also my irreplaceable best friend.

I started taking riding lessons a year and a half ago at the age of 56. I was terrified and vowed I would never trot. Well, this week I cantered almost a full circle and only holding on with one hand!! This is Emmy, a sweet Haflinger school horse I get to borrow twice a week. Love her!!
Lisa Washington
He never complains that I tack him up in pink. 🙂
Alex Ciccarelli
My weanling and I! I rescued her at an auction where she would have gone to slaughter, and she is the sweetest, smartest, most willing baby I’ve worked with. I can catch and lead her, load her, pick up her feet, and rub ALL over her when a month ago she was completely untouched and unhandled

Traci Alton
I’ve known this beautiful mare since she was a few months old finally was able to buy her a couple of years ago. She is my therapist and my buddy. She is the reason I work two jobs and go without new shoes and getting my hair done for months at a time. She is my sunshine.
Sharon Hancock
I love doing rescue work, and helping the nurse mare foals and other orphaned foals is what I think I do best! Here I’m feeding Baby Doll, whose mother was not able to produce milk because of her own depleted condition. Baby Doll thrives now and has been adopted to a new loving home!

I love knowing that Coconut enjoys what we do together.

This is Litli Skjóni fra Borgartúni. He’s an Icelandic horse and loves when you show him affection and love. He’ll give it back instantly.

Salem and Junior, owned by a friend. Such sweet, chill guys. I’ve only met them twice but I adore them both. Junior has been a star both times I’ve ridden him.
