It actually takes almost 40min before we chat about Pony club!  Katie's current involvement with horses is a lot of fun to hear...

In this edition, we invite you to join us at an upcoming Equine Symposium.  We also talk about the National Guidelines regarding the care and handling of horses.  Have you thought about an emergency plan for the equines in your neighbourhood? We love the idea of having the code available on-line, with an index and look forward to spreading the word about it across many varieties of breeds and sports and disciplines.

We also hear an interview Harmony did with a rider at Myrddin Equestrian and a 'Riding With the Stars' segment featuring Preetam, as well as a quick PSA we recorded for blood.ca.

Let us know what you think! Write to [email protected] 

We hear Alyssa determined a list of 350 breeds for her "Discover The Horse" project... and, how is a kiger mustang different than a regular mustang.  We learn about the crew, the equipment, and her background with horses before embarking on this amazing journey!  And we compare notes about the Icelandic Horse and how its important to experience that breed in that terrain, in Iceland.

Every once in a while, we are lucky enough to hear Jonathan Byrd perform in our town...  Do you remember when I caught up with him after a local show, for some random horse talk, for this episode of the hoofbeats podcast?  

There is also a current poetry reading to get the November 2017 edition of riding with the stars underway!  (Tis the season to check out the store for more, right?)

p.s.

Should I ask him to help us win a trip #offtoiceland with some social media efforts?  All thoughts welcome...

more original fiction for hoofbeats, by kim logue

fiction for hoofbeats radio!

This episode starts with a description of the Incident... you can read it or hear it on the blog also...

The segment is brought to you by Tapestry Equine Products.  Usually with used riding gear, its not allowed IN to Iceland, but in my case, the girth I brought in got such a great review, I wasn't allowed to bring it back!

What's a bay dunn? This edition of hoofbeats might leave you wondering.  It will also leave you wanting to go to New York for lessons on the trail, Vermont to go trekking from Inn to Inn, and prepping for another trek in Iceland with some lessons at Onice Farm in Caledon, or a neck strap from Tapestry Equine Comfort Products. There is mention of a horse named Leo and we do in fact address what most media ask when reporting on the Icelandic Horse.  Is the North American market ready for so much horse?  Also included is a funny story from Icelandic Canadian folk star Lindy!!
