Holistic Horse Care

Horses are like us, they need sufficient sunlight for vitamin D production and bone formation.

"Horses need some free time in daylight every day for optimum health and a fully balanced energy field.  If your horse is confined becasue of veterinary treatment/instruction, see if you can use a stable where the horse can put its head over the door into good bright light and use a light airy stable. Check with your vet in case of contraindications."

However, remember to provide shade for horses that are turned out so horses can rest if needed.
