Horses
Cooperative Extension events, education materials and programs help horse owners stay aware of the best ways to keep their animals healthy and happy.
Owning horses is a tough job
Having a horse is like having a second job. There's a lot to do with no breaks. Horses have to eat and drink 365 days a year, and when they're sick they need help. Our researchers and other experts have compiled a database of education materials going back decades, and combined with our events, they keep horse owners up to speed and ready to ride.
