Do you know why horses can sleep standing up? Did you know they don’t have a gall bladder? Equine Connection and Equine Guelph are partnering on an online educational initiative, “Who Knew? Fun Facts & Why it Matters.”
 
You can have your little-known horse fact printed in a new E-book, which once published, will be shared with all contributors. The E-book will be a great resource for instructors, riding camps and all equestrians with inquiring minds.
 
Equine Guelph will be fact-checking the E-book prior to distribution. 
 
“We are pleased to be part of this fun initiative with Equine Connection,” said Gayle Ecker, Equine Guelph director. “Horses share some things similar to us, but there are important differences. When we know about those differences and why they are like that, we are in a better position to care for their unique needs and promote good health and welfare.”
 
Equine Guelph is celebrating its 20th anniversary of providing evidence-based education through online courses for horse caregivers. As pioneers in online equine education, Equine Guelph caters to equine enthusiasts of all ages with programs including the EquiMania! youth education display, TheHorsePortal.ca short courses all the way up to university level certificates and a diploma program.
 
“We are so excited to be joining forces with Equine Guelph, we are proud to bring even more fun and educational opportunities to the horse-loving world,” said Kari Fulmek, Equine Connection founder. “With a shared passion for all equines and their welfare! You don't know what you don't know until you do, and that’s why this fun book of facts and why they matter will benefit all horse lovers -- both new and experienced!”

Equine Connection offers a global certification course in Equine Assisted Learning. This unique business training works with horses in a completely different way to help people. Equine Assisted Learning positively impacts people’s lives through working through objectively driven programs while keeping the welfare of the horse at the base of all training.
