Horses
Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you are enjoying the day with family and friends and eating plenty of those "once-a-year" goodies. Don't forget goodies for the horses either! Mine always get a bag of carrots for Christmas. If your horse is "sugar-sensitive", stay away from treats like carrots and apples. Some great low-carb treat alternatives for your horse include alfalfa cubes, hay pellets, sugar-free peppermints, prunes, celery, and commercially available low-carb treats (i.e. Skode's Horse Treats).

- Happy Holidays From Our Research Team!
Every year, I put together some wacky Christmas card that involves my animals. But the picture I took of my pony Jackie, wrapped in Christmas lights, is by far my favorite! She was a very patient and quite bombproof pony, who would stand anywhere...
- Our Crazy Crew At Aaep
Right before Thanksgiving, our horse business group headed to the AAEP (American Association of Equine Practitioners) convention in San Antonio, Texas. In addition to being a sponsor of the convention and serving as an educational partner of AAEP...
- My Other Obsession(s)
Hi all. I know...Long time, no blog. I apologize for my absence. Today I am working from home sidelined with a terrible late winter cold. No worries though because it is providing me with plenty of opportunity to indulge one of my other obsessions (besides...
