  • The Importance of Environment
    May 1 2025

    “When a flower doesn’t bloom, you fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower” – Alexander Den Heijer. Creating the right environment for our horses is vital for them to thrive, and if these needs fail to be met can result in long-lasting consequences for our horses welfare. Amy and Ross explore what is species-appropriate husbandry, why these practises should be necessities, not options and what you can bring in to enrich your horses lives.
