1. So You Want to Own a Horse Since the ripe old age of four I have been obsessed with horses. Having passed the 40-something mark without losing interest (hey, I even kept all my Breyers :o), I think it's fairly safe to declare them a lifelong love. While the other kids in m...
2. FOSH: Friends of Sound Horses FOSH is an acronym for "Friends of Sound Horses". The organization is incorporated as a public benefit humane and education organization. Its purpose is to provide information to the public about the humane care, treatment and training of gaited hors...
3. Blankie's Story Shadow is by far the biggest and most eclectic equine personality at Epic Farms. Sometimes funny, sometimes fragile, and always entertaining; we just never know what we're going to get from day to day. The day the majority of the pictures used in th...
4. Epic Farms: A small non-profit striving to share the BIG picture I don't pretend to have all of the answers (shoot, I'm still coming up with questions). Our sites are simply offered as a collection of learning experiences and personal observations that I found fascinating. Of course I find horses in genera...
5. Contemporary Equine Artists Throughout history the horse has been a popular subject in art. Today, many fine equine artists carry on the tradition. This lens focuses on current artists specializing in paintings and drawings of this noble animal.  
6. Horse Prints As long as I can remember I have had a love of horses. When I was very young I collected model horses, and played for hours with them. Then my sisters both bought horses and brought me with them riding, I was in love. Just watching them, grooming the...
7. Coping with Colic Colic is a word that terrifies most horse owners, and rightfully so. While mild episodes of colic are fairly common and sometimes easy to treat, severe episodes can be life threatening. Aside from old age, colic is the number one cause of death among...
8. Royal Lipizzan Stallions | Dancing Horses Rescued by General Patton Hermann's Royal Lipizzan Stallions and their mares rank among our favorite snowbirds in the Sarasota area on the west coast of Florida. These horses hail from the line rescued by General Patton in Europe during World War II. The equestrian troupe p...
9. Care for your horses feet It's an old saying, but nothing has ever made it out of date. A horse is no better than his feet and no better than his legs. The fitness of his legs depend more often than not on whether his feet are all right. The horse walks on two fingernails a...
10. Beverly Horse 90210 I'm not a competetive person; perhaps it's best to say that straight out and right up front. Sure, I participated in shows when I was younger. Did I want to? Sort of. But the morning of the show would always find me in a frantic state over something...
11. Helpful Hints for Horses Horses can be very expensive to own, but there ARE some things you can do that will help save you some money. This lens contains some things I've discovered along the way that (not being independently wealthy and all) have helped us to pinch pennies...

13. All About Cinnamon Cinnamon (sometimes teasingly referred to as "Cinna-minna-man") is one of our accidental rescues. He came to us along with his friends Max and Retta. In addition to a serious back problem from a heavy rider (which was solved by rest), Cinnamon also h...
14. All About Bella Bella is known as our resident brainiac; she tends to think on a higher plane than her pasture pals (and sometimes I think she's ahead of me too). She came here at age 2 as a temporary companion for Rina when Rina was about 6 months old. Considering...
15. How to Host a Worm Paste Party Deworming your horse does not have to be a total "night-mare", nor does it have to be some stress inducing ridiculous undertaking (honest :o) With a few simple steps you can go from "It's kind of like doing aerobic exercise with a giraffe" to "Man, t...
16. Horse Crazy Captions ...and sometimes there ARE no words. Of course I'm not including any of those pictures here (what would be the point? :o) This lens is in honor of the cool new captions module recently added by those brainiacs at Squidoo. I've started the bal...
17. All About Shadow One of two Tennessee Walking Horses (TWH for short) at Epic Farms and our resident Drama Queen (big time). His lens is designed to give you some insight into the Walking Horse breed as well as talk about himself (his most favoritist subject :o) Walk...
18. Books on Akhal-Teke horses Akhal-Tekes have both exquisite beauty and an amazing history. I went on an internet quest to find books about Akhal-Tekes and I was surprised at the paucity of information available. And as what is available is not easily obtained, I have started a...
19. All About Rina Rina is a purebred Arabian and the self-appointed leader of The Girls; she is also Lady's daughter and Taya's big sister. Rina is frequently feisty, super smart and takes her role as lead mare very seriously. Rina was three months old when she and h...
20. A Day in the Life of a Foal [in Taya's own words] Anytime I watch horses I get dialogue. I don't mean I sit there and try to make it up, I mean it's just sort of there; running through my head automatically in accordance with what I see. While it definitely ups the fun factor of watching horses inte...
