Horse Care: Routine Care: Care of the
Grass Kept
Horse or Pony
The advantages of keeping a horse or pony at grass is that it
is more natural, the horses or ponies can be kept as a group, the risk of
behavoural problems or accidents occurring are less than with a stabled horse or
pony, less attention is needed and costs are lower. However there are also
disadvantages as the grass kept horse or pony may require greater preparation
for riding particulary if wet and muddy.
Although less attention is needed for a horse or pony kept at
grass, it should be checked daily for health and any signs of injury and care is
also needed of the field. The maintenance and management of the field is an
important part of the care of the horse or pony kept at grass to ensure safety,
