Most kids are out of school by now, and the breeding season is winding down.
Longer days and warmer nights are our reward for seeing our horses through another winter. But, there are some people who compete on a daily basis, and most will never be known by you or me or any of our horsy friends. They are the people whose full-time jobs are to protect our horses. There are many other veterinarians who choose careers in government. Although you have seen me give them difficulties over what I consider inappropriate actions or decisions, you also have heard me tout many times the benefits the entire horse industry receives from their dedicated work.
