Better Horse Care When You’re Not a Youngster Anymore

How can you provide better horse care as you grow a little older?  Maybe you’re not a strong as you once were, but you can probably do some things to make your horse care tasks easier.  We’ll look at horse care methods and gadgets that work, and some that don’t work, to get your horse care done.  Here’s Paul Sherland talking about better horse care.

Summary of the Better Horse Care Video

– – Howdy friends, my name is Paul Sherland with SaddleUpAgain.com. We’re going to be talking about horse care as one of the topic areas in SaddleUpAgain.com, and why is that important for someone who’s maybe a little bit older?

I think it’s important because whether you’re young or old, you want to provide great care for your horses, but as you get a little bit older, maybe some of the things that you were able to do when you were younger, you’re not able to do anymore.

I’m thinking of things like working with hooves, trimming hooves, that sort of thing. If your horse isn’t cooperative, as you get older, you’re not going to be able to horse the horse around and make him cooperative if he’s, if he or she is unwilling.

So, we’ll be working on better horse training, but also horse care tips that maybe will help you provide your care more safely and with less physical effort. Some of the horse care tips won’t be focused on being older.

Some of the tips will be focused on labor saving and some of the tips won’t be, but I hope they’ll be useful to you. They’ll be what works for me, and I hope you’ll share what works for you.

So, I appreciate your participation. I appreciate it if you’d be willing to share some of your experiences, what works for you and what doesn’t work for you, and I look forward to learning from you.

What’s SaddleUpAgain.com

SaddleUpAgain.com is intended for those returning to horseback riding later in life, and those who are returning to riding for the first time.

Maybe you rode horses as a child and now you have the time and the money to ride again.  Maybe you always wanted to ride horses and now you have the opportunity.

What can we remember from our younger experiences that will help us now? What can we do to ride our horses better with bodies that are not as nimble and strong as they once were?

I’m on that journey right now, and I’ll share what I’m learning and what others are teaching that I find valuable. If you’re on a similar journey, I hope you’ll share what works for you.

The Greatest Kindness

“If you are fond of a horse and wish to do him a favor — train him well. Teach him good manners, good habits, both in the stable and under saddle. You need never worry about the future of such a horse if for any reason, you may have to part with him. You assure him of friends wherever he goes. Perhaps the greatest kindness you can do any horse is to educate him well.” — Tom Roberts
