LS A, in BS A Caring for Trouper on this page our resident horse expert discusses horse care during the spring Staff photo Babs Ellis stands beside one of her favourite horses, Trouper, outside her Penetanguishene country home. In an article » Season. Tips on caring for your horse by Babs Ellis At this time of year horses have been getting a minimum of exercise and therefore require careful handling in order to con- dition them. A "soft" horse . fatigues more rapidly than one that has been conditioned because his muscles are: softer and carry an excess of fat. By working such a horse moderately, with properly spaced periods of rest, it is possible to build up the muscle cells to a point where the horse will do as much work as the seasoned animal. Rest provides strained muscles with an opportunity of repairing themselves. Inasmuch as fatigue increases with the square of the work done, and not in direct proportion, sustained muscle effort can produce disastrous results. If harmful fatigue is to be avoided, a horse starting a aay either in harness or tk, saddle, must be warmed up gradually. He should be worked at a moderate speed, in order to keep a balance between muscular activity and ability of the blood to provide fuel and remove waste material. He must never be called upon for his best effort until' thoroughly conditioned, and then only after he is properly warmed up. It is equally important that he be cooled out gradually at the con- clusion of each performance. It is difficult to overwork a saddle horse that has been thoroughly conditioned, provided he is _ being adequately fed and watered, and is properly ridden. That is that the horse will not be allowed to trot over nine miles an hour, that he will not be called upon to perform on hard ground or pavement, except for short stretches, that he will not be trotted downhill, and that he will not be required to carry a rider is obviously too heavy. If these precautions are ob- served, the rider will probably tire before the horse. Exercise should be started and finished at the walk, in fact, horses should be allowed to walk the first half- 'mile and the last mile. They should not be required to trot on pavement or downhill, as this tends to increase the concussion on the feet and front legs. Girths should be examined at the end of the first mile and adjusted, if necessary. A saddle horse requires about two hours exercise per day, while approximately three hours work is necessary to keep a hunter or polo pony in condition. There is a saying that '"'a horse should be groomed from the inside out"'. In other words, the coat should be kept in good condition by proper feeding and mana ent. The skin of a healuty@=se is loose, supple and easily moved about, the coat is smooth and glossy, but in winter may become coarse and heavy. Horses shed their coats in the spring and fall, the forelock, mane and tail are not shed. The more work 4 horse does, the more he sweats, hence the greater the need for grooming. In view of the fact that a horse has well- developed sweat glands, grooming should be thoroughly done for cleanliness and appearance, to prevent skin diseases and remove scurf, loose hairs and waste products such as skin secretions. To judge the cleanliness of a horse, the hand may be passed the reverse way of the hair with the finger tips presed against the set of the coat. If lines of gray are left on the skin, or if gray scurf clings to the points of the fingers, grooming has not been done efficiently. Quite frequently, the areas bet- ween the lower jaw, inside the ears, the fends of the knees and hocks, under the belly and between the forelegs and thighs, are neglected. Before going into the show-ring, the nostrils should be cleaned out and all developed sweat glands and will sweat from a number of bedding removed from the soles of the feet. Horses have well- causes. Operation face lift may blast off (June 28 - July 5). Ted Light and Wally Meisinger are representing the interests of Penetanguishene's Main Street merchants.
