How else do horse people announce they are expecting? Photo by Zozo Photography.
This adorable photo was sent to us by a reader, who says it is her veterinarian pictured in their pregnancy announcement and she couldn’t resist the cute. Dr. Michelle McCashin is an avid eventer and fox hunter, and her husband Sean McCashin (an avid horse show husband) posted the perfect picture to announce their pregnancy. They are due this October and all of Mocksville can’t wait, to buy her (or him) a pony!

Horse & Hound has some top five categories to use to rate every stallion for your exact purposes. [Breeding Puzzle: 5 Factors to Determine a Good Stallion]
Speaking of keeping track of important people, get to know Chris Talley and Unmarked Bills intimately as we follow them to their first Kentucky CCI5*. I’ll admit, it’s my personal favorite pair, as I referred Chris to Billy after seeing him on the track and realizing I wasn’t a good person to do sales. The sale never quite happened, and four years later, I’m cheering loudly from the sidelines as this fantastic thoroughbred and his fashionable parter Chris tackle the biggest challenge of their lives yet.
