Horse Observation Report

I would like to put together a series of 5 horses shows to be hosted at the school arena throughout the year. The horse program would be in charge of hosting the events called the Razorback series. The program would be responsible for all aspects of the show including but not limited to judges, office staff, arena, class list, awards, equipment, concessions, and announcer. There would be 5 horse shows hosted throughout the year and points would be awarded to the top 5 in each class. All contestants would pay a yearly membership and would help to find sponsorship money to be eligible for year-end awards.

Life is made up of moments that can be good or bad, big or small, it just depends how people choose to see it. I personally choose to look at moments in my life with a positive outlook. Life will throw you the craziest obstacles, and how you handle them will design the person you are. The soundtrack of my life is made up of events that impacted my life tremendously, and made me who i am to this day.

Through my science research project I aimed to find out the differences between equine and human monocular and binocular vision span. I went about investigating this by measuring eyesight through the use of a chalk configuration, orange marker and observing the horses’ eyes to determine the span of their vision. To determine the human vision span I used a different method of verbal communication. From my experiment I have discovered that horses do have a larger field of monocular vision and a smaller area of binocular vision compared to human vision. These results supported my original hypothesis which was expected from my background research. From my specific experiment I was able to come to the conclusion that on average horses have

The Chronicle of the Horse reached out to Larry Glefke for comment on the result of his USEF rehearing, and this is his response in full. This is his personal statement and not the opinion of The Chronicle of the Horse.

Working in stables can be useful for clients who may have a fear of horses but still enjoy the animal (4). They could muck out stalls, brush them and even feed them. Many clients enjoy just being in the pasture field with the animals and just walking alongside them (4). When it is just the client and the horse out in the pasture field, the client is more likely to share what disturbs them. Some patients simply want to read a book in the stalls with the animal (4).

As a struggling, broke college student, I don’t have to describe how a lack of time interferes with being able to spend more time at the place I love the most: the barn. I practically grew up in the barn, and horses have been part of my life since I can remember. Over those years, I have had the pleasure of working with dozens of horses. Currently, I am working with a goofy, but highly intelligent bay Arabian gelding by the name of Jack. Jack, comes from a background of misguided training. In the time before I met Jack, he used to lie down with his riders to avoid working with them. Ever since he fell into my hands, it has been a topsy-turvy road full of blind spots and learning curves at every stride.

There are over 350 horse breeds in the world. Horses are sensitive creatures they can feel a fly landing on their back. They have stunning vision it is monocular and binocular they have large vision. They are one of the fastest domestic species. A working horse like a quarterback horse can weigh up to 2000 pounds. A light horse is a horse with small bones and thin legs. can weigh up to 1300 pounds. A few horse breed are the American quarter horses, Arabian horse (which is a good if you have children), the Miniature horse, Rocky Mountain horse, Appaloosa, Palomino, the Mustang, and the American paint horse.

It all started on a cold and rainy day. I arrived at the barn, slamming the door behind me the warmth of the barn brushed my face. The tack room door creaked as I pulled it open. It was fairly quiet. I began rummaging around for my tack. I piled it all up on top of my saddle like a misbuilt tower. Struggling, I managed to open the tack room door and headed towards Turbo’s stall. I dropped my stuff down and slid his stall door open. I fed him a treat and he whinnied with glee. I pulled my hair back into a low tight ponytail, and placed my helmet on my head. Paige was standing in the aisle tacking up. She was around my height 5”0ft, with light brown hair. Paige nicely helped me finish tacking up. Anna gave us permission to bridle, and we walked into the arena. Turbo had been amazing now that I was big, it made it easier to ride a small pony like him. I walked into the arena towards the mounting block. It was barely an effort getting on Turbo; he was so small that I could have mounted on without the block. Warming up was a breeze. Turbo stayed ahead of my leg and had a smooth and steady tempo. Turbo cantered along happily and soared over the jumps. By the end of the lesson I could not have been more proud of my pony! I hopped off and gave him

Did you know that horses have great eyesight and have minocular vision? Well if you didn’t know then you do and for the people who do know then you just had to hear it again. A horse can't see in front of itself because of it’s minocular vision. It’s eyes are on the sides of it’s head. A horse has things called blind spots.

Since I was a kid, I love horses. Every time I could get the chance to groom the horses or feed or ride, I would take it. Over the years, I’ve learned not how scary or threatening they may seem, but how noble and therapeutic they really are.

Arabian horses have been around for thousands of years, originating in the Arabian Peninsula. They were first bred by the Bedouins to be strong endurance animals, capable of surviving in an unforgiving desert environment (Discover). The Bedouins formed strong bonds with their horses, sharing resources and shelter with their four legged companions. As a result of both their incredible stamina and lifelong loyalty, the Arabian has been remarkably well preserved since their inception (Discover). Today, they are found not only in the Middle East but all over the world. With their trademark dished face, arched neck, and incredible stamina, Arabians are still one of the most popular horse breeds

Albert’s father who always gets drunk before an auction decides to buy a baby horse. However, he only wanted the horse because of his “rivalry” with another farmer. Since Albert’s father doesn’t need or want the horse he often would abuse it since it was stubborn. This later came to bite him in the butt when he tried to put a collar on Joey, he kicked Albert’s father because Joey didn’t trust him. Albert would stand up to his father because of how much he adores Joey.

Most of these have to be done on a weekday, so you will need to consider who will be around to get your horse in, supervise them during the appointment and then turn them back out again. This could mean taking days off work or paying someone to be there when you cannot.

Some have come to believe that our smell is one of the most powerful senses that can be closely tied to memory and I would definitely have to agree. I am an equestrian and always will be. Having the opportunity to be around horses and working on my family’s farm has become an intrinsic component of my personal identity. I have made so many memories and have become so familiar with my horses over the last few years that I am easily able to tell them apart simply by their own individual smells. My redheaded Thoroughbred gelding, Doodle, smells of sweet hay, manure, peppermint breath, and dust, whereas Lacey, the black Quarter Horse, smells a bit more like a slightly sour sweat and also much like fresh cut grass on a hot day. Horses tend to have an extremely unique smell that
