Horses and Ponies

From The Pet Wiki

Welcome to the Horses page!

Besides being highly intelligent, horses are loving, loyal pets. Keep in mind they are very large pets that need lots of room. They require proper housing, an area to exercise in and graze, and equipment for riding and care. And veterinary and food bills can be high. As with all pets, research horse ownership thoroughly before committing to purchasing a horse. If you can provide for all its needs, you will have years of pleasure sharing your life with a horse.
