️Did you know……
As we go into winter this is the season where we get drastic temperature changes, warm days and cold nights. When this happens, some horses tend to stop drinking water for short periods of time. If they are on a modestly or low digestible hay, the hay in the hind gut begins to form a dry mass because of a lack of water. If feeding Total Equine horses tend to stay hydrated better during cold weather and especially during temperature changes. This helps prevent a dry mass forming and impaction colic. Also, another way to help hydration is drop a handful of Total Equine in a water bucket.

Danny O'Donnell

Biography:

As the co-founder of Cowboy Lifestyle Network (CLN) Cowboy Lifestyle Network - now a western media powerhouse with over 4 million fans, Danny has become a trusted voice in rodeo culture, horse care, and Western traditions. CLN’s success is no accident; it’s built on Danny’s deep understanding of the Western way of life-its values, people, and economic engine. His work connects brands, events, and fans across a thriving industry, from the Rodeo Scottsdale to the Super Bowl Party Trophy Bar.

Danny’s journey from Arizona ranch life to Western media trailblazer is rooted in authenticity, grit, and community. Danny’s passion started early, shaped by eight years in Pinal County’s 4-H program, where he raised lambs and learned ranching hands-on. At Arizona State University, he became a division 1 collegiate diver, team captain, and earned a B.S. degree - fueling his entrepreneurial spirit. After a decade of corporate management experience, he launched CLN with his brother Patrick to amplify the voice of the Western community.

"Giving back has always mattered to me," Danny shares. His ongoing support for Horses Help, Harris Brothers Charity Foundation, and a 25-year CLN Christmas Toy Drive speaks volumes. Through action, Danny has built not just a brand, but a legacy of trust and impact in the Western world.
