Spokes-Horse Entry: El CaminoI have never had a colic problem with El Camino, my 19 year old Paso Fino. I always make sure he has good quality hay, feed and plenty of fresh water to drink.

My horses are out during the day and they have their own stall at night, that way I can check them twice daily for early signs of discomfort.

My now retired horse Macanudo had a fatty growth on his stomach wall, which I caught in time for him to have a successful surgery. After his recovery, I both trail rode and showed him. He will be 23 in May.

    Have a comprehensive dilated eye exam. You might think your vision is fine or that your eyes are healthy, but visiting your eye care professional for a comprehensive dilated eye exam is the only way to really be sure. When it comes to common vision problems, some people don’t realize they could see better with glasses or contact lenses. ;”^’
