They know when you're lying to yourself.

Walk in the barn confident but scared — they step back.

Walk in genuinely calm — they come to you.

You can fool your boss. Your family. Yourself.

You cannot fool a horse.

That's exactly why barn time is the best therapy there is.

No walls. No pretending. Just you, as you actually are.

They Feel What We Hide

A horse responds
not to your smile,
but to your truth 🐎👀

It knows when calm is forced.
When confidence is borrowed.

Be honest—
and the horse will meet you there.

The 2025 EHV-1 outbreak is spreading across multiple states, with neurologic cases (EHM) raising serious concern among equestrians.

This Presence News update breaks down:

✔️ Where the current hotspots are
✔️ What symptoms to look for
✔️ How the virus spreads
✔️ What horse owners can do right now
✔️ Why this outbreak is more dangerous than previous years

EHV-1 typically causes respiratory symptoms, but some strains lead to Equine Herpesvirus Myeloencephalopathy (EHM) — a severe neurologic condition that can progress quickly. Early detection and strict biosecurity are critical.

We’ll continue to track new case reports, state-level alerts, and EDCC updates as they develop. Full article on PresenceNews.org
