This is SEAHA Online!
The Southeastern Arizona Horseman's Association (SEAHA) is an Arizona
horse club, founded in 1997, and is dedicated to our equine friends.
We offer many exciting events including gymkhanas, horse shows (English and Western),
trail rides, camping trips, poker rides, and our year-end Shindig. Please read our
mission statement. Our monthly
meetings are held at various locations and times and are open to everyone.
More specific information about the meetings will be published in our monthly
newsletter the "Equine News". We also offer a special program called the
Saddle Log Program. It's a perfect way to keep
track of your riding hours and get prizes too!

Did you know...
A 1,000 pound horse
produces 1,500 Btu of heat per hour (36,000 Btu/day) and exhales 2 gallons
of water daily. Which is why stables need to be well ventilated, but don't
need to be heated. |

The outside of a horse is good for the inside of a man.

Biological classification of the horse:
-
order Perissodactyla (odd-toed ungulates; at this stage
related to the rhinoceros and the tapir who, with the horse, are
the only remaining families in this order. There were more than
15 in prehistoric times.)
-
superfamily Equoidea (only group in suborder)
-
subgenus Equus (true horses; the domestic horse is
Equus caballus)
