The horror gallery

Dear reader,

if your horse looks like a hairy quitar, weights 2o kg with a iron bed on his back and keeps the wool on also during summer months, is time to use your Mc Donalds money to refresh your four legged friend.

If you dont care, dont have a horse.

1. Water. Always. Not enough to give a bucket or two three times a day.

2. Salt and electrolytes. (If you dont know what is electrolyte, use "google". When the horse has acsess to free water 24/7 you can put a big spoon of salt to his food daily. Electrolytes when its hot, he is working or sweating due to long hair. A horse CANNOT replace his lost body water by himself. When a human sweats, the blood salts gets high and we feel thirst. Horse sweats much more salts than we and the blood salt level dont get enough high for him to feel enough thirsty to drink enough to replace the lost fluids.

If a horse dont get salts back, he does not drink enough. If he does not drink enough, he does not eat enough.

3. Hay 1.5 kg /100 kg body weight. good quality. Or lucerna or straw (needs more salt to get more water.) Or as much as he wants to eat.

4. Mineral mix with Ca-P ratio minimum 2:1

5. Good quality proteins: Lysine. That means soya, lucerna granulatum, sunflower seeds.

6. If in work or growing, some "gas": oats,barley, corn.

If you got bored and skipped the earlier part, please, sell your horse to someone who cares. This was only a small , simple part of the well-being and you should study more.

Dont forget: Teeth rasping minimum once a year.
Parasite control 4 times a year. (Ivermectin+Praziquantel winter and summer, Ivermectin spring and Autumn).


Now, the first price of The Horror Gallery of the year 2007 on XVII district goes to :

"Repulőter istallo" when kept by Sanyi. (Dont know where he has taken his skeletons now...)
And to "Horgasto"-stable kept by Gabor.

And you, who have your horse in these places to work and you who buy riding lessons with such a bad looking horses: SHAME ON YOU.
