Did you know that one year ago today I posted my first blog post! Looking back it’s been one wild year, filled with ups, downs, masks, and quarantines! But it has also been a wonderful year of growth for my one year old blog and for me personally as an equestrian & horse owner! In celebration of this anniversary and in recognition of the trial filled year we have all had, I decided to commemorate today by giving a shout out to the awesome blogs & online equestrians I have gotten to discover this past year! I hope you find these fellow horse lovers and their products & blogs as helpful and beneficial as I have!
Savvy Horsewoman HQ is an awesome resource for any online horse owner who loves taking online courses and tutorials! Including a video course library and access to multiple eBooks, the monthly membership fee is worth all the knowledge and guidance you can get from Savvy Horsewoman HQ! New courses added monthly; make sure to check out this great resource and try my favorite course so far, Equine Emotional Motivation!
I thoroughly enjoy reading The Backyard Horse Blog’s posts! I get excited when I see this blog’s notifications in my inbox! Relatable, informative, and friendly, this journey of Horse Owner & her two equines, Bear & Shiloh, is a joy to follow along! The Backyard Horse Blog’s author might be a newish blogger like me, but she is certainly an accomplished writer with her articles appearing in Equus Magazine, The Horse Magazine, The Plaid Blog, and Horse Nation. Be sure to follow along as this backyard horse owner “liv[es] the dream and reality of keeping horses at home.”
As mentioned in my last post, I am now an affiliate of the My Happy Lesson Riding Binder! This PDF printable can be used and enjoyed by any lesson taking equestrian! For any discipline or age, one of the things I love about this product is the customization it provides. Because it is in PDF form you can print or not print the pages you need, pick your cover photo, and really customize this riding journal guide to all your needs and goals! Read more about this super duper product here!
The Flaxen Filly, named after the author’s mare UC Fascinatin’ Rythum, is an informative and fun blog featuring all things horse!

Blanket safe is an equestrian service offering soaps & washes for horse & pet products! Their soaps, washes, and deodorizers contain no harsh chemicals or detergents. Their products safely wash all your barn laundry with awesome results! Check out the Blanket Safe website & blog for some astonishing before and after shots! I have yet to buy from Blanket Safe, but I also have yet to hear a bad review about their product! If you wash your blankets, tack, or any barn laundry and haven’t used Blanket Safe, you should totally give it a try!
Saddle Seeks Horse was one of the first blogs I ever followed! I really enjoy following the journey of Susan & Knight! This blog not only shares horsey knowledge, but also keeps you busy with product reviews, interviews, equestrian getaways, and book reviews! Susan is super friendly and readily answers any emails you send her! *that’s been my experience!* She has also written two horse centered books that you should definitely check out on her blog!
