Horse Care

HORSES ARE THE HEART OF SKIJORING

Horses the heart of Skijor Canada and are a top priority for the organization. Skijor Canada is passionate and vigilant about animal care. Together with Back On Track Canada and our official veterinarians, Wise Equine, we offer guidance on skijor horse training and conditioning, limit the number of runs a horse can make in competition and advocate protective gear and traction shoeing. All events have veterinarians on course and officials are authorized to excuse any horse or human appearing unsafe or unsound.
