Wildfire smoke covers the skies of the PNW and is quickly moving to our neighbors to the east. Below is an article that addresses how to bring horses back into work after wildfire smoke has cleared. Hopefully it can help keep your equine partners healthy during this severe wildfire season.

Wildfire smoke exposes horses to harmful particles in the air. Make sure your horses are recovered before working and riding them.
