5 Ideas That Will Make You Think About Stalls

By David Neiford


If you choose to purchase horses, you are making a significant commitment. These animals are often quite costly, which means they are an investment. The expenses associated with owning a horse, though, still exist long after you buy the animal. Food, hay, bridles, and saddles are items you will have to buy for as long as you have horses. In addition, if any of your horses are going to be trained to participate in shows or races, you will have to pay several staff members. Groomers, trainers, and jockeys will all to be hired, for instance.

It is also vital for you to pay for the construction of a horse stable where your animals can comfortably live. Usually, the construction of horse stables requires significant amounts of panning ahead of time. You undoubtedly want to make sure any horse stables on your property are sturdy, spacious, and laden with modern features. It is easy to get caught-up in these major aspects of building a horse stable and to forget about the small details. In this article, you will learn why it is vital to buy rubber mats for your horse stables.

Whenever you develop plans for building a new horse stable, the comfort and safety of your horses should be paramount. Purchasing rubber mats is a great way to provide both of these things. They can also make the jobs of your stablehands easier. Some horse owners have trouble believing that such a seemingly insignificant purchase can make so much of a difference in their horse stables. It is, however, vital to buy rubber mats.

The average horse weighs over a thousand pounds. When horses are kept in stable stalls, they are typically on their feet for a lengthy period of time each day. As time passes, it can become difficult for their legs to continually support such a large amount of weight. Furthermore, because horses are unable to move about excessively in stable stalls, their legs don't receive the same amount of exercise that they would in a field. If horses are made to stand for hours on the hard floors of horse stables, they may start to suffer from joint issues, leg pain, and other health problems.

When rubber mats are used as cushions on stable stalls' floors, these sorts of health issues do not occur nearly as frequently. This can be attributed to the fact that rubber mats protect horses' fragile hooves and legs from the hard stable floor. Often, horse owners opt to place a pile of hay or straw on the rubber mat in each stable stall. This gives the horses a comfortable location to rest and relax.
