Over the past few weeks I’ve been sharing some of the equine blogs I follow and today is one of my favorites. The general horse blogs…written by horse people for horse people.
The General Blogs
The term general hardly does them justice, many of these blogs are highly specialized within the equine niche. Some provide advice, some provide essential info and still others will just put a smile on a horse lovers face. In the end I’ve been following a large percentage of these blogs for quite some time.
I have tried to limit it to more active blogs and if I’m forgetting anyone my apologies – do speak up in the comments if I should be following your blog & I will!

The Never Ending List
Let’s face it, this list could go on forever. There are literally thousands of horse blogs out there. Most of these I found via social media or other horse industry online communities. If you write a horse blog (or if there is one you love) I’d love to hear about it in the comments below. Be sure to check out some horse association and magazine blogs too.
