Tip : When you are going to show a mare and foal together, put the same
bridles on both as they will look more alike and the judges prefer them like
that, and keep them together! By Stacie Lipscombe

Tip 1: When you have a new foal, stroke its belly when it it drinking
its mothers milk, and it will digest it more easily!
Tip 2: If you're preparing a white horse for a show, wipe a KFC wipe
over their dirty patches and it will come off without getting wet!
Tip 3: If you want to make your horse's feet gleam, rub off the dried
black dirt and apply some sunflower oil overnight, cheap, and good for the
feet!
Tip 4: When making a horse's food, add some table salt, some lard,
and a bit of human-garlic, and he will enjoy it more and digest it easier!

To calculate how much weight your
horse can carry:
Take
your horse's weight in pounds, divide by six, divide that by 14 - this equals
the maximum weight of the rider in stones (remember to add 2st to your body
weight to account for the tack).
