Equine Enrichment Activity

A great enrichment activity for horses on stall rest, rainy days, boredom busting, desensitizing, exposure, fun, and so much more! Could even be used to slow down how quickly a horse consumes their meals.

That is so awesome!! Thank you for sharing! My rescue shetland was a petting zoo/pony ride pony and was skin and bones with neglected hooves. Her feet are slowly improving and I started taking her to the beach and teaching her little tricks as her soundness improves. I know she is going to love getting to seek treats like that!! Especially on days the footing isn't so great to go for a walk :)

Where did you get the purple faceted 'ball' ? That's what we need here we're it's so hilly that Jolly Balls all roll downhill and through the fences.

I've only found your channel and I'm in love! The horses and the barn are absolutely amazing!
Do you own the barn at which you work at or is it own by your family and you work there or something else?
Also could you please do a barn tour?

[@TheWillingEquine]

Kinguins-Corner the closest I have to a barn tour at the moment is “day at the barn” but I hope to do an actual tour soon. :) got to get the barn cleaned up a little haha. - and the facility is privately owned by my family but not “mine” , I use it to work out of

Are those little pools horse safe to leave in a corral? Or will they get destroyed?

[@elizaeliza5937]

This is probably one activity that should always be monitored. Too much risk of something breaking off or your horse doing something crazy and then they end up eating something they shouldn't or other wise hurting themselves. Besides the pool will fill with water when it rains and that will only make the flies and mosquitoes happy.
