Part of running a successful website is keeping up with the industry which means reading horse blogs & paying attention to relevant websites.

Over the past few years of posting & using social media I have saved hundreds of URLs and if they have an RSS feed I try to keep up with their blog too.

What is RSS Anyway?

If you have heard of RSS (or not) and don’t really understand it, here is a simple explanation & a video that will clear it up.

You Gotta Love People Who Write About Horses

Recently I did some organizing and thought it was about time I gave credit to those horse bloggers & writers who I’ve followed for quite some time now.

Many of you may have noticed I’ve been doing quite a bit of work on my breeds section (if you haven’t go check it out!) because of this I’ve been introducing them to you once a week on Thursdays.

So far I’ve started with stables & rescues in the US & a long list of race tracks worldwide.

There are more horse breeds than I ever dreamed possible when I began my horse breeds page. Recently I had a friend tell me that the list was incomplete & provide me some holes I was missing (and there is more to come).

Can’t Hurt To Ask

So I’m asking for help from my readers. My goal is to compile a list of breeds with information (and clear images) for each one. There is very little information about some of the older & more obscure breeds, and often it is in a language I don’t understand. Plus finding pictures is very time-consuming.

The idea is to be objective about each breed and to provide basic information about their history, traditional colors, temperament, features & physique.
