Up in the clouds
After reading a few threads over the last couple of weeks or so, I began wondering 'What are the basics that any-one buying a first horse/pony should know?'
My thoughts are,
That all equines require trickle feeding, whatever you decide to feed yours on.
At optimum weight you should be able to feel but not see the horse's ribs.
Owner should be able to put on whatever tack they are going to use, without hurting/causing discomfort to, the horse.
Horses need company.
I feel that these are the absolute minimum but other people may want to add more.
