By Ina Hunt


People find it joyous and pleasurable to keep different animals in their homesteads and farms. While some people would make efforts to keep puppies and kittens at home, others would look for bigger animals. This depends with the need of the individual in buying the animal. Among the most enticing animals you would keep at home, include a horse. If you are looking for a good horse, you need to consult people who breed and keep breyer horses.

Prior to bringing a horse in your home, you will have to make several preparations that will ensure peaceful co-existence of your family and the animal. Make sure that you build a barnyard that will be able to serve as a house for the horse with stables in place. Do not just make space for a single horse. Ensure there is space for at least two or three more.

When making a stall for the animal you should ensure that, it is livable. One way of doing this is by ensuring that the floor is kept clean and comfortable at all times. It would not be good to let your animal sleep on a hard rough floor instead of the more comfortable version where you make use of products such as sawdust on the floor. Other materials that could be used include materials such as straw or even shredded paper.

Another important thing to take note of is the feeding pattern of your animal. You need to ensure that the animal is provided for in terms of all feeds it may need in order to allow for its upkeep. For your horse to remain strong and healthy, you will need to ensure a consistent feeding practice. It would be wise to feed the animal twice daily as this would allow for its proper growth.

If you have made the decision of keeping this kind of animal, ensure that you have all it takes to ensure your animal is well groomed at the right times. Buy currycombs that would see to it that the horse is kept in the right order. The bristle brushes are also important since they would give your horse a groom in the best manner.

You should also make sure that you keep your horse warm during the cold weather and especially during the winter. In such cold weather, it would be wise of you to ensure that your horse has a warm blanket with which you can be able to keep it feeling warm.

It is especially advisable to allow the animal to graze in open fields during the summer months. This allows or the animal to roam and exercise as it grazes. You may also consider buying your animal fly sprays to keep flies from it.

Lastly, give your animal sufficient clean water every now and then. This helps in the digestion system. You need also to let it lick nutritious products that have mineral salts to help it grow healthy. Moreover, after two and a half months you should see to it that the animal is administered deworming drugs to ensure that its health flourishes.
