Thinking About Breeding Your Mare?
By Dr. Kimberly Carr
Welcoming the New Year also means welcoming in the breeding season for 2023. While this is often the most exciting time of the year for mare owners, it can also be the most hectic. Whether you are an experienced breeder or just getting started in the industry, it is important to remember that a successful season hinges upon good organization, good communication and a bit of good luck.
Getting Started
The early stages of the breeding season can often be the most overwhelming for mare owners because there are a lot of decisions to make. The first decision is always figuring out which mare or mares to breed. There are many factors to consider when breeding a mare and a veterinarian can help you make an educated decision about the reproductive potential of each mare.

If you are hankerin’ for home cooking just like grandma used to make with fresh ingredients, then look no further than Dixie House Cafe with locations in Fort Worth, Saginaw, and Euless. Dixie House, which was originally named Theresa’s Cafe after its owner, opened its first restaurant in 1983.
In the early days, it was just Theresa and one employee that ran the cafe. Between the two of them, they created mouth-watering meals from scratch using tried and true recipes. Dixie House is where the nostalgic vibe of a 60’s diner meets the charm of Southern hospitality and cooking. The portions are substantial, and the flavor is reminiscent of a time when meals were slow-cooked with families gathered in the kitchen and not hurriedly microwaved.

With most of America fighting off the winter blues and setting their sights on the warmth of spring, the rodeo world is already heating up. It is often common chatter about how the rodeo world really does not have an off season. In October when the regular season wraps up, it is not even a week before rodeo athletes start running to fall rodeos so they can start building up money toward the next year’s finals. It is true that fall rodeos do not have big payouts, but many athletes take the every dollar counts approach and throw several of them on the calendar.
November and December may be the slowest months of the rodeo year, but believe it or not, there are still plenty of places rodeo athletes can go and earn a small check. Traditionally the number of rodeos in the winter months is lower, but the few events that do happen tend to have big payouts. Pretty much every rodeo fan knows all about places like Denver, Fort Worth, San Antonio, and Rapid City. These are all big scale events with huge payouts.
