Easy-riding mountain trail horses, built for the tough trails of the West!
Bred for smooth, easy-to-ride gait, good temperament, good looks and sound conformation. Our horses are made to be trail horses and working ranch horses. They can do it all day, at a smooth gait, are sure-footed, and have good minds. They are used for a variety of purposes, from ranch and cow work, show ring, and especially trail. For more than 75 years, Foxtrot- ters have been bred to be an easy-to-ride, non-jarring, ground-covering riding horse, with common sense and sensible dispositions. Our stallions throw these characteristics to their foals, along with good looks and color.

Hay Belly – A Lot of Hot Air
A Tip from Dr. JulieT m. GeTTy, phD Ever been told that your horse has
a hay belly and needs to lose weight? Well, relax! He’s not fat, he just has gas! In fact, gas production is normal and healthy. It indicates that your horse is getting enough hay for hindgut micro- bial fermentation to occur. A distended abdomen is often referred to as a “hay belly” to describe an overweight horse, even when the rest of his body is nor- mal, but fat does not accumulate extensively on the horse’s lower abdomen (belly). Horses do accumulate fat in specific areas: neck, withers, back, ribs, shoul- ders, and tailhead. In 1984, Dr. Don Henneke, of Texas A&M University, developed a “body condition scoring system” that categorizes horses’ condi- tion based on the amount of fat stored in these six areas. This system is still the mainstay for equine health profession- als. Instructions for using the Henneke
system are in Dr. Getty’s comprehen- sive book on equine nutrition, Feed Your Horse Like a Horse. Horse owners who deliberately
limit hay consumption and replace it with cereal grain to avoid a hay belly are doing their horses a disservice, and increasing the risk of colic and lamini- tis. Forage should be the foundation of any horse’s diet. It is vital for the health of the hindgut microbes, and hence, the health of your horse. Dr. Getty will be speaking at
the Rocky Mountain Horse Expo in Denver, CO, March 11-13, and at sever- al other horse expos and fairs this year. Find her 2011 schedule, includ- ing topics, on her website,
