Horse Agistment Is More Than Just A Place For Your Horse To Sleep

28/5/2021

 
To attain and maintain optimal individual performance within any given equestrian practice, horses must be in their prime physical fitness and have a healthy psychological state. These two factors are of equal importance; you can’t have one without the other. ​
Finding A Home Away From Home

When looking for a horse agistment facility, it is paramount to find a facility that cares for your horse’s well-being as a whole. After all, these beautiful and powerful creatures are not machines. They are our companions and our pride. Their success is our success and vice-versa. Giving your horse the much-needed time to rest and recuperate will bring forth an abundance of advantages. The time, effort, love, and commitment you put into your horse will be given back to you tenfold. 

​Listen To Your Horse

As with any unfamiliar territory, expect your horse to go through an adjustment phase. Listening to your horse and paying close attention to their behaviours and temperament will let you know if your horse is accepting his/her new surroundings. Your horse is not the only one who will face the difficulties of separation, though, so expect a little anxiety and be patient with the process. Rest assured, all of this is made easy when you find a facility that ticks all of your boxes. 

Take the time to visit the facility you are interested in. Spend time getting a feel of the place and the people. The way you feel is the way your horse will feel. The welfare of your horse is a priority, so consider these factors when choosing an agistment facility: 

#1 Location - Is the facility close enough that you can visit daily?
#2 Facilities - Access to an arena (indoor, outdoor, lights) or a round yard, shared or individual paddocks?
#3 Amenities - Wash bay, feed storage, tack room, etc.
#4 Agistment offerings - Health care, training, spelling, rugging, and supervised feed programs? 
#5 Expert staff - Are the staff passionate, knowledgeable, and caring? 

Here at Glenrae Thoroughbreds, we pride ourselves on excellence and ensure your horse stays in the best possible condition. We believe your horse deserves only the best.
