Cascade Icelandic Horse Club
The Cascade Icelandic Horse Club is a recreational club for owners of
Icelandic Horses, and people who want to ride and have fun with
Icelandics. Our members come from all over the Pacific Northwest. Our
annual meeting is in January, and our typical activities throughout the
year include shows, trail rides, play days and competitions. We begin
the spring with the Northwest Equine Expo in Albany, OR, and we close
the summer with a beach ride in Long Beach, WA. We are a USIHC
chapter club. For further information, please contact the membership
chairperson, Sandy.

right horse for you!

Barefoot Horse Trimming
Two excellent books to review for barefoot hoof care are:
Making Natrual Hoof Care Work for You by Pete Ramey
and
Horse Owners Guide to Natural Hoof Care by Jaime Jackson.
You can purchase both of these books on amazon.com by clicking on
the link to the left.
Hestar Og Menn is a fabulous tack store in Reykjavik, Iceland, and I
spend way too much every time I’m there (but leave happy as a clam
every time!).

Consider Old Mac’s multi-purpose horse boots instead of shoeing
your horse! Your horse will thank you and their feet will too! I got a
pair of these last July and rode in them every day for three months over
all kinds of terrain. No problems and no more complaints of tender feet
from my mare. This summer we’re hitting the trails with our old macs,
and loving every minute!
