Welcome, Fellow Horse Enthusiasts!
All Equine Enthusiasts Come Together and follow Initiative #16 (PAUSE). Join the journey in becoming familiar with how this State Initiative might change our equine community, the lifestyle we enjoy, and how we care for our animals. Do not believe that this does not affect you as a one-horse owner, an equine business, a health professional, trainer, or equine enthusiast, IT DOES. Keep up with the information and efforts to oppose this sort of legislation on our Equine community.

The Colorado Horse Council organizes the annual Rocky Mountain Horse Expo (RMHE) in Denver every February/March. Please mark your calendar and join us for the 2022 Rocky Mountain Horse Expo (RMHE) the weekend of February 24 – 27, 2022.
The Colorado Horse Council advocates for the social, economic and legislative interests of all horse breeds within the State of Colorado, the US and worldwide. We are a trusted voice in the horse industry and our mission is to advocate for the health & wellbeing of all horses and promote initiatives that advance and enhance the equine industry.
The Colorado Horse Council represents farmers, ranchers, breeders, trainers, showmen and women, retailers, veterinary care providers, service providers, feed producers and those who own horses within the State of Colorado.
In partnership with the Colorado Horse Development Authority, we launched a new Colorado Equine Microchipping Program in 2018 help reunite owners and their horses when separated as a result of natural disasters, theft or accidental escape.

The Colorado Horse Council organizes the annual Heritage Ride as fundraising activity throughout the year. Heritage Rides offer horse enthusiasts the opportunity to participate in exciting adventures and activities with their horses. Last Heritage Ride gave owners and horses (all breeds) the opportunity to race around the track of Arapahoe Park Racetrack, try their hand at wrangling cattle, the chance to try obstacle courses and much more. To learn about upcoming Heritage Ride, check back on our website or follow us on social media.
