A little more than a year ago, I posted my very first “Old Horses: Better With Age” blog post and set out on what’s proven to be a really fun adventure. I can’t tell you how much fun I’ve had talking about my family’s little herd of senior horses, digging through my past and remembering all the wonderful oldies, and reading your comments and experiences with your aging equines.

I realized, though, a few months ago that I’ve never really introduced you to the horses that I tell you about all the time. I’ve shared many stories, but I’d little take a minute to really introduce the real stars of this blogÑmy senior horsesÑand tell you a little about some of our main health and management concerns with each.
