4 R Equine

Merry Christmas from the Alberta Equestrian Federation🐴🎄

This holiday, we wish our entire equestrian family good health, peace, and well-being— in the saddle, behind the breeching, and anywhere your horse takes you. May your days be filled with quiet barn moments, fresh bedding, steady hooves, and the company of the four-legged partners who make life better in every season.

From our hearts to yours, Merry Christmas and warm wishes for the year ahead. ✨

If you know the stages of normal wound healing you'll be better able to recognize when your horse's injury needs veterinary intervention. Click the link in the comments to learn the basics.

❄️Happy holidays ❄️

Making Winter Manageable on Horse Farms Don't wait for the first snowflakes to prepare your horse property for the cold, dark, and wet months ahead.

Here’s to a new year of healthy and happy horses, thoughtful care, and time well spent in the barn. From all of us at The Horse.

Belated Happy New Year!
We've been very busy and apologize for not keeping everyone updated. We raised an incredible $91,178 during our December fundraiser!!. Everyone's support is so very much appreciated and we are looking forward to a great 2026. We have lots of plans in the works and will be sharing as we go along.
The horses are all doing wonderfully and enjoying the break in the weather, as it's been milder the last couple of days.

Just ride. Ken McNabb Horsemanship

They say I make no difference....

For how are they to know.

They sit inside their office....

Just going with the flow.

They have never felt my presence,

Touched my coat or breathed my air.

How can they make judgement...

When they have nothing to compare.

They have never seen me gently...

Pull someone from the edge.

Theyve never seen my silence...

Calm the voices in their head.

Theyve never felt their own heart rate..

Be regulated by mine.

Im not asking much from you...

Just a little of your time.

Come spend it in my presence...

Close your eyes, feel at peace.

Be completely in the moment...

For it will put your mind at ease.

I am not a magic healer....

I leave that to the best.

I am just a humble horse...

Youre the one taking lifes test🌿
