Some horses are susceptible to disease when their food is placed in dirty places. Therefore, do not let the food for your pet horse directly touch the ground.
When changing the type of food for your pet horse, make the change gradually. Start by giving small amounts of the new type of food and gradually increase the amount so that your pet horse gets used to the new type of food.
Seek advice from experienced horse riders regarding horse care and riding tips.
Ideally, you can start training your pet horse after you buy it. Start by training him to walk a little, then run a little (trot). After that you can try to ride it and take it at a gallop. This way, both you and your pet horse can get to know each other and get used to each other’s presence.
Don’t give your pet horse too much food; give the right amount of food.
The explanation in this article is an example of the daily care of horses in stables. You do not need to strictly follow it (work out everything exactly as what is described in this article).

Memorial
Do not make sudden movements around the pony you just bought as it takes time for the horse to get used to your presence.
Stand behind your pet horse a considerable distance. If your pet horse is frightened or angry, they can kick with their hind legs and it can be dangerous for you, even deadly. In addition, keep in mind that horses can bite and have a flexible neck that can rotate 180 degrees.
Horses should not be abandoned. Before you decide to keep them, make sure you know that you really want to keep them and are prepared for the consequences. To make sure of this desire, try doing a little work in a common stable for several months. In that time period, you will have a lot of experience related to caring for horses that can help you make the big decision to raise a horse yourself.
Do not walk directly behind your pet horse. Even if you think you know your horse well, he may kick you for some reason.
