Carriage Horses - Should They Be Allowed in the City?

Have you ever ridden in a horse drawn carriage in Central Park, Columbus, Ohio or any other city?  It can be a really fun experience, at least for the passengers.  However, things aren't always great for the animals, though there are laws in place to protect them.

Learn a little more about this tourist attraction in our new article on SmallFarms4You, Carriage Horses,  written by Joy J. Fine.  Here's an excerpt:
