| News From the Horse Barn!
Summer is upon us. In our part of Texas, it is still Spring and that is VERY unusual. No complaint from us though. I am enjoying watching my palomino horse colt. He thinks he owns this place and all the other horses treat him like he does. I find it interesting the way horses respond to foals.
I will be combining the Learn All About Horses Newsletter website and the Learn All About Horses website into one. I think it will be more convenient for you, and definitely easier for me. If you know of someone who would enjoy Learn All About Horses, please send them our URL.

| Tidbit of Horse Wisdom |
|
 Horses get itchy spots in odd places, one being the side of their head. They usually scratch this particular itch on a post or a tree--or the nearest human.
Humans are not suitable scratching posts! It is simply too dangerous to allow a horse to run on a person. Real damage can be done to human skin, especially if the horse is wearing a bridle or a halter.
Plus it indicates a level of disrespect that can lead to more aggressive behaviors.

| Reader Profile--Barbara and Diamond |
 |
| I thought this month I'd introduce you to me. In this picture, Diamond and I are in Vermont. Diamond is the mother of Shade, the palomino baby I keep bragging about. Shade was born April 14, 2002.
Some of my earliest memories are centered around horses. In fact, I can't remember a time that I didn't have a horse. I have been training, showing, and teaching riding lessons for 18 years. And now I have added writing about horses and horsemanship to my list of horse-related activities.
