How can I entertain my horse?

Question

How can I entertain my horse?

Answer 1

take it to the horse show

Answer 2

Groome him  lead him around to hand graze an ride him especially  in water. If you had an Iberian horse ie Andalusion, Lusotano they will entertain U.

Answer 3

On the ground: They have these things called l**k Its and Stall Balls

While riding: Do circles, serpentines, figure eights, all that stuff so your horse wont get bored. Don't do the same boring thing every day. Maybe work in the arena 1 day then the trail the next. Explore your surroundings, and if it's safe, go on an adventure. Just make sure you have the essential trail items. There's a great list at www.horsechannel.com

To encourage your horse to play with it if they don't take to it automatically, try using a spray bottle & giving it a spray with some watered down molasses.

I haven't met a horse yet that didn't love this, hang it approx a metre out from a tree/stable etc so it swings freely in the air to make it more difficult.

Cheaper toys include an empty milk bottle, poke some holes in it & put some molasses water inside.  You can also hang this from a tree/stable door so it swings around & poke a small hole in the bottom so the molasses water drips out.  Cheap versions of boredom breakers.

Other than that, make sure your horse has a companion & spend time with him/her.

Have fun with your horsey :)

Answer 5

To entertain your horse, you can get JollyBalls©, which is a basically indestructable ball that a horse can play with. You could also look into a companion, such as a goat, or even another horse. My aunt had a horse that had lone syndrome, a sickness a horse gets from lonliness. She got a duck, and believe it or not, the two bonded instantly.

Good luck!

Get a boredom breaker (toy), put the radio on near his stall (horses like classical music), if it is possible put him in a stall or pasture where he can see some activity.
