Recently I connected on LinkedIn with a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. His profile indicates on LinkedIn that he is not only a veterinarian, but also a scientist and inventor. Dr. Agelan reached out to share about a topic he is passionate about and keen to make available for horse owners. Out of curiosity I headed along to the Dr. Milt’s website to find out about this product.

There are many minerals that assist the body to function properly. The importance of magnesium in the horse’s diet for nerve and muscular function is highlighted over at this site, focusing on why this product can be of benefit to horse owners.

The only ‘products’ I tend to promote on here are horse books.  But I love to be able to share about other products and services that relate back to horses. So if you’re interested in the benefits of using a magnesium based product with your horses, then why not check out Dr. Milt’s Magnesium Therapy? Or if you know of someone else who may be interested, then spread the word.

The great thing about being able to read up on and purchase products online, is the way we can spread the word by sharing. The same can be said for discovering opportunities for you and your horse career. Not sure what you want to do with horses, but keen to explore options? Be sure to check out Vocation 100, where I explore 170+ horse careers here on Equus Education. And if you’re happy to explore free horse resources that are available to you online, then also check out the free resource category of posts here on Equus Education.

Whilst reading Jean Halley’s Horse Crazy, there was a reference to hobby-horsing.  Apparently this sport has built from fantasy horseback riding.  It now appears to be a sport where people ride around on props that are essentially sticks with a horse head on top.  And these are utilised with riders going over jumps and even carrying out dressage tests.  How unique!

Even more incredible is the fact that a horse business has arisen from this hobby sport.  Eponi creates and sells custom made stick horses that sell for 100-300 euros in price.  This is equivalent to $160 – $480 Australian dollars.  The collection online is incredible!  https://eponi.hobbyhorse.fi/#/

I had never heard of hobby-horsing before reading this non fiction works.  And yet, exploring a little online and I am amazed.  I love that a sport can be created by horse enthusiasts that don’t necessarily have a horse of their own.

And I especially love that from this, a new horse sport has developed and people are able to establish a horse business to help cater to this sport.  The equine industry really is exploding in so many areas that I am amazed at.  If you have a passion for horses and want to make a career out of them, be sure to think outside the box.  Many people have made their passion much more than a hobby and are living from an income they have earned through a unique horse business.  Incredible stuff.
