Blogs of Note


Here are some blogs and websites of note for daily reading.

    Tik Maynard - Chronicle of the Horse

In the summer of 2008 Tik Maynard came up with a grand plan. He decided to spend a year working for some of the greatest horsemen he could find in different disciplines and writing about his experiences. So far, he has worked for Johann Hinnemann, Ingrid Klimke and David and Karen O'Connor. Although he spent the summer of 2009 at home in Vancouver, B.C., Canada, he's still working on expanding his equestrian education.

Local Horse Helpers


Local Horse Helpers


  Pipsqueak Paddocks Miniture Horse Haven
Pipsqueak Paddocks Miniature Horse Haven is a rehabilitation and rehoming centre for Miniature Horses. We are located in the beautiful upper Fraser Valley of BC.
People have surrendered their Minis to rehome for various reasons.  Sometimes they are moving and can't take their horse with them.  Or, for some reason, they can no longer care for their four-legged friend.  We will accept any Miniature Horse and provide them with vet care, farrier care, dental work and all of the necessities to ensure that they are healthy and happy.  If a Mini is suitable for driving or some other discipline, we will have it trained.  If you truly just want a good home for your Mini and are out of time or options - we will happily take on the task of finding them a loving and permanent new home.
