The Things That You Should When Preparing For Open Horse Shows And Events

By Jerry Burns


Nothing could be harder than preparing for a competition. However, where stakes are high, doing certain things right can increase your chances of excelling. Here are helpful tips on preparing for open horse shows and events.

Groom your horse on a regular basis. It is important that you keep it clean by grooming it on a daily basis. Ponies that are groomed regularly usually look great, happy and healthy. Proper grooming will ensure that the coat of the animal maintains the right shine and thickness. By personally cleaning your mount, both of you will also get time to bond. Therefore, spend time picking its hooves, working out dirt and brushing its tail.

Offer your pony the right type of food. To enhance the health of its coat, you should feed it on certain grains. These you can buy from the local stores in large quantities so as to ensure you have enough all the time. Some of the foods that can really make the coat your animal shine includes dried bread crumbs. Incorporating them into the diet you provide is therefore advisable.

Keep up with the healthcare needs of your animal. Before taking your mount to a show, it is critical to ensure that it is up to date on its treatments and vaccines. The last thing you want is to go for a competition with a pony that is ill, has worms, underweight or overweight. To make your horse more presentable, ensure that it is healthy enough.

There are certain preparations that you only need to make a few days to the show. First, it is important that you bathe the horse so that it is clean enough and prepared. Ideally, the cleaning should be done a night to the function. This is because if you bathe them too early, they will become dirt again. There are various types of high quality cleaning products that you should have for such an activity.

About 24 hours to the event, it is important to prepare certain things. First, you are advised to pack the right kinds of food for your animal. Whatever you pack should be the things that you normally feed it on regularly. It is therefore not advisable to make changes to its diet as that may adversely affect its performance. In addition, you should carry enough buckets of clean drinking water.

Have the required stall equipment. You should find out from the organizers of the show if there is anything you need to bring. For instance, inquire if you will have to come with the bedding for your horse. Other things that you may be requested to pack include shavings, hooks, chains, buckets and a wheelbarrow. Still, it is important that you carry a first aid kit for both you and the animal.

Do some final preparations moments to the competition. Here, it is important to feed them and groom them by brushing off the dirt that they may have caught. You also need to remain in great shape for the competition. This you should do by dressing accordingly and keeping yourself composed and relaxed. Still, you should strive to have confidence in your ability to win.
