As pleasure riding becomes increasingly popular, more riders are
contemplating buying their own horse. However, the cost of
maintaining the animal at a boarding stable can be off-puting,
leaving potential horse owners to wonder if it's possible - and
practical - to keep a horse on their own land.According to
experienced backyard horsekeeper Joan Fry, the answer is yes.
Beginning with the basics, Fry helps readers to consider whether
they have sufficient and suitable land, access to a veterinarian
and farrier, and available feed supplies. She also carefully leads
the prospective backyard horsekeeper through constructing and
furnishing a small barn, paddock, and corral; locating and
purchasing the horse; as well as feeding, grooming, and otherwise
tending to the animal's creature comforts. Backyard Horsekeeping
will easily lead the way to maintaining and enjoying your very own
horse on your very own property in no time.
