April’s issue of Western Horseman leans into the small, consistent habits that protect a horse’s long-term health. From understanding how to age a horse by its teeth to practical guidance on taking a horse’s temperature and managing salt, sweat and electrolytes, this issue focuses on the everyday knowledge that keeps good horses healthy.
We also explore horsemanship and training insights from Wade Black, Tuli Dowers, and Van Luse, and address real-world health concerns with a feature examining equine herpesvirus.
Beyond health, we step back in time with selections from our 90th anniversary series. Part two of our Western Horseman feature history continues with a closer look at the content that has shaped this publication for generations. We’re also back with a reader favorite, exploring historic advertisements from the magazine in the ’60s and ’70s.
