more work She is on the advisorv hoard of Sheridan College starting this yeir Silverwood received centimetres of snow in Residents were wonder where to put the stuff when it got a little milder and settled down liad a letter recently from a young girl honing to aquire her first horse and what do I do You a be surprised how many such letters I receive or plaintive phone calls Many youngsters arc allowed to purchase a horse without anyone knowing anything about the care and feed of such an animal The best advice I can give in these circumstances is to board the horse with a reputable riding stable who wilt care for the horse ind train the rider However here is Melissa s letter from King City Question I am crazy over horses my parents are going to let me have one but I am afraid of a few things We only hove 1 acre and no barn We are going to make some sort of shelter but how much food will he eat if I have no pasture Also will he gel lonely if he is by himself we only have a rabbit to keep him company although I will be with him a lot Could you give me some information about these Answer I assuming you know how to ride and have some idei of rudimentary horse care before you plan to keep one If not loin or horse club take riding lessons or arm yourself with a library of horse books small short backed he will be to feed sturdy and probably placid of nature I know I am don need a tall thin Thorough to cause you problems at this stage It is possible to keep i horse on an acre providing he has three or four nice long rides week You won be able to keep him on unless you have the property seeded down to a very rich mixture It is likely that the grass you can provide him will only suffice as an appetiser It will cost a month for his gram hiy straw for bedding timers fees he must have fool attention every two months even if he is not shod and veterinary care a half bale of good hay daily spread into two or three feeds Fresh water and a mineral salt block to lick round out his basic dietary requirements A three sided structure with a roof will do for shelter if you don wish to put up a barn Face open side to tht south bed deeply with straw and he II weather the winter alright However he il need more food to keep him warm so increase his ration in the winter Many horses live alone happily but a companion is People who have one horse often lake in a boarder lokeeptiim company Perhaps you and a friend can work out a reciprocal arrangement If you keep your horses together it also gives you some one to ride with which is more fun However your parents will probably kill me for this advice hailing this could be pressed into service is A fiml word keeping your own horse tio make sure know to ride saddle and bridle him and generally horse before you get yourself in a heart breaking mess Please send letters to Jennifer R Acton In I Mi thev moved to tin Si iiu firm he Ion s print tier hush pissed iw iv in ind Mrs I in to there with herd itchier itoris
