The Whole Scoop

5: Enrichment


Listen Later

While Jordan and our producer Maddy enjoy time staring at wall, our horses don't always feel the same. Did you know that horses only sleep 3.5 hours a day? Our domestic horses then spend 4-6 hours eating, and maybe an hour or two with us on a ride. That leaves 14 hours a day for.... vices, getting into trouble, destroying their fly mask, etc. Enrichment is the idea of building natural behaviors into your horse's life through habitat, cognition, sensory experiences, food, and toys to help keep them entertained and healthy.
