Our four legged friends aren’t the cheapest of company. But this ebay cheat sheet will help you out – particularly for lead ropes and bitless bridles.

Could you maybe add hoof riding boots, saddle cloths and gel pads to your cheat sheet? 😛
I love horses!
I take horse riding lessons and i am sure that all of this will help me immensly to bond with the horse i ride 😉 😎 😀
have a 4 yr 0ld that is well fed, goes out everyday either in lot or pasture is kept wormed, teeth floated and etc he nibbles on poop. is there anything i can add to grain that would deter him away from this
yes, this is a sign that he needs more flora in his gut. look into pro-biotics for horses to help him gain this.
When foals are born, one of the things hardwired in is for them to nibble on their mom’s poop to gain the gut flora they will need.
Remember horses can not throw up so never give him anything that expands in water unless you soak it sopping wet first! (I am referring to stuff like beet pulp) so you do not get a burst gut, impaction, or a choke. Many folks put their pro-bioitics in soaked beet pulp or a very wet mash – hence my bringing it up.
I do not advise to use yogurt for horses. first off it has been proven in scientific studies in Europe that GMO’s horizontally transfer from the feed to the animals and even into the human’s DNA if it is a meat animal. SO giving yogurt to a horse from unlabeled GMOs and hormone laden cow milk products is asking for trouble.
Also i suggest you make his feed (and yours) as organic and unprocessed as possible. The more “stuff” to preserve or stabilize the grain, the more it will mess with his flora.
If you can’t pronounce it or spell it, it belongs in neither man nor beast.
