On today's show, we are chatting with author, Christina Keim, on her new book, Unwanted -- The Causes & Effects of America's Horse Populus Crisis. We touch base with Erin MacDonald from New Vocations to get her approach to telling the difference between a horse who is asking for help (aka maybe some naughty behaviors arising) vs a horse who is asking for more of a challenge in their work. Plus, we introduce you to our adoptable horse of the week who happens to have ran in the Preakness! Stay tuned...
