On October 30th, Texas Equine turned five years old—and with Thanksgiving right around the corner, we can’t think of a better way to celebrate than by reflecting on how far we’ve come and expressing our deepest gratitude to those who’ve helped us grow.

We’re excited to share our November coloring sheet , inspired once again by a real moment captured here at Texas Equine Education & Horsemanship! This month’s page features one of our amazing interns working a horse on the lunge line  — a training technique used to build communication, balance, and trust from the ground before riding. Lunging is an important part of horsemanship, and this calm, focused scene is a great reminder that learning doesn’t just happen in the saddle

Tonight’s class was all about one of the smallest yet mightiest members of the equine world—the American Miniature Horse ! These tiny horses may stand no taller than 34 inches, but they’re packed with personality, intelligence, and heart. Miniature horses were first bred in Europe as novelty pets for royalty in the 1600s before finding their way to America, where they were later used in coal mines because of their small size and steady nature. Today, they’re loved for their g
