Caring for horses

Having a horse may be fun, but it is also a lot of work! You must be sure to give your horse fresh food and water several times a day. Its stall must be cleaned out and lined with fresh bedding such as straw or wood shavings at least once each day. You also have to exercise your horse to keep it healthy. Giving your horse plenty of attention will keep it happy.
