In a few weeks, I'll be heading out of state to try some horses to hire for the summer camp I work for. We usually lease around 7 Western trained horses for the summer. I've never bought or leased a horse before, so I was wondering what other people look for when shopping around for beginner...
Hello, I do not keep horses but we are considering adding a privacy hedge along our property line. Our fence runs along a horse pasture that our neighbor owns. I want to plant something that the horses will NOT eat. I’ve done a lot of research and so far have seen only a few evergreen hedges...
Where I board, the horses are all paddocked 1-2 per paddock (the single horses are surrounded by fenceline friends), and none of the paddocks are larger than an acre. Elle and her beau are in the largest one, and it's lots of space for them. There's also a nice slope to the property, so I have to say, the drainage is great. Which definitely helps.

Gatorade didn't work for my horses, personally. What did work was buying jugs of "Indian Summer" apple juice, available at Walmart/Meijer/etc. I tried a juice bar with Gatorade, apple juice, and apple-a-day electrolyte when trying to get Toofine drinking during his impaction colic. Apple juice was the trick.
