horse care
Stable management duties
Horse care encompasses the daily practices of keeping horses healthy and comfortable—feeding, grooming, hoof maintenance, shelter, and veterinary attention.
The term covers both routine tasks like mucking stalls and brushing coats, and specialized knowledge about equine nutrition and health: The stable offers lessons in riding and basic horse care.
Good horse care requires significant time, expense, and expertise.
