Movement and grazing will naturally dominate the majority of a horse’s time. Therefore, confining horses to individual stables or paddocks may be insufficient to meet their social and mental needs. Distress may result from lack of social interaction and space.  

★Horse owner should not place a horse in a situation where the horse continues to suffer stress/distress; nor should a horse owner use training methods that cause fear, pain or distress. By using humane training methods, horses can be trained effectively and safely.

★Traveling : make sure the horse is  in good condition to travel 
ex: stress-free , well fed, follow safety precautions ]]> 2016-09-15 04:16:40 UTC https://padlet.com/maswad/y9j2dwxm0cvp/wish/123960747
