RE: How I'm treating our pony's hoof problems

in #ecotrain6 years ago

Thank you @vibesforlife! Yes, their hooves are the most important for them, so they need the care. However, if treated as naturally as possible, and not in the 'human kind of way' we get the best results I believe. Horses shouldn't be in a stable, but outside where they can move. It suits their natural way better. Us humans started to treat animals in a way they don't need to be treated. We feel sorry for them when it's cold, raining or snowing, when in reality, they don't mind it. I used to give our horses the option to go indoors by keeping the stable doors open, and guess what? They choose to stand outside in all weather. And if you've ever stood inside a stable during rain, or wind, you know why...
