Welcome to our April issue.
This month we’re diving into young horse training, premature and dysmature foals and the long-term effects on the hocks, a sneak peek at the Lusitano breed and a few Canadian breeders, and navigating joint injections with Larch Veterinary Services. We’re also featuring Art of the Cowgirl coverage with Britain Mills-Dawes. Plus, a bonus from Mad Barn with five practical tips for broodmare care.
On the cover we have Black Creek Ranch — versatile, quality horses in Horsefly, BC. Learn more at blackcreekranchbc.com
Happy reading and riding!
