- Tips for grooming sensitive-skinned horses like Thoroughbreds?
- How do you treat horses with perpetually terrible skin that already have an A+ diet?
- Do you ever use a fake tail? If so, how often?
- How do you do perfect braids with a thick mane and using rubber bands instead of sewing?
- On the flip side, how can you help your horse's mane grow back after the winter rubbing season?
- Top tips for studs?
- How do you keep your gray horse clean and sparkling?
- Favorite tips for impressive quarter marks?
- Handy hints for grooming at a five-star? Any differences from grooming at a four-star?

Volunteers
The VIP Volunteer: Jim Moyer
If you take one look at Jim Moyer’s Facebook page, you will see it is filled with sweet sentiments from the lives he has touched through his work in the equine industry. Moyer’s involvement with horses began when he met his future wife Jean 50 years ago. As Jean went on to become a prominent instructor in eventing, Moyer found that their friend circle was full of horse people, so it was only natural that he should find his place in the community.
