Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and while I already know what my plans are (drinking a bottle of wine of the couch while watching Olympics — very romantic, I know) I have yet to determine how best to spoil my horse, who is obviously my one true love. These adorable little treat buckets made by my local pony club to benefit a local equine rescue sure look perfect though. I think I’ll grab one for my own horse and a couple for barn friends as well — what a cute idea!

Black History Bit if the Day:

Widely recognized as one of the most diverse colleges of veterinary medicine in the United States, Tuskegee University College of Veterinary Medicine (TUCVM) is the only veterinary medical professional program located on the campus of a historically black college in the U.S. and has educated more than 70 percent of the nation’s Black veterinarians. TUCVM was founded in 1944 by Dr. Frederick Douglass Patterson, who also founded the United Negro College Fund (UNCF), which today is one of the U.S.’s largest minority education organizations.
