    Helpful Tips On 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.

    Be sure to groom your horse throughout the year. This is one of the best ways of preparing it for a competition. By cleaning them daily, you will surely bond with them and enhance the health of their coat. To ensure they are clean enough, there are a number of things that you can do. These include combing off any dust that might be on their coat, picking their hooves and brushing their tail.

    Provide your pony with feeds that enhance the appearance of their coat. From the market, you can get a wide range of these products that you can use. These types of feeds contain nutrients that go a long way in enhancing the shine and thickness of the coat of your animal. It is therefore important to incorporate all such grains into their diet. You should begin doing this several months before the show you are preparing for.

    Be sure to offer your mount the best medical care. You do not want them to appear underweight or overweight for the event. Still, an animal that looks ill or has worms will not earn you the points you desire. It is therefore advisable to take the health of your horse seriously by following up on its medication. Working with a qualified veterinarian is highly recommended.

    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.

    It is also important to pack the right items for the event. Due to the stressful nature of such functions, keeping up with the feeding schedule of the pony is important. For this reason, ensure that you pack all their feeds and enough drinking water. The food that you carry should be exactly what you feed them during other days. Still, it is recommended that you do not change their feeding time.

    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.

    There are some things that you should do just moments before the competition. If your animal caught some dirt, it will be time to do some final cleaning up so that they look as good as possible. You will also need to dress appropriately and keep yourself in good moods. Taking time to relax yourself is also important.
