Horse Welfare
Our horses do so much for us. They give of themselves wholeheartedly everyday. Nothing that we do would be possible without the Horses of Halifax. But simply acknowledging all that they do for us is not enough. Horses have physical, mental, and emotional needs, just like humans do. Just a few way that we look after those needs are through regular care by horse health professionals, feeding them quality foods, and sending them on vacation.
Vacation
Professional Care
Farrier
A horses’ hooves are vital to their overall well being. All of our horses receive specialized care from our Farrier every 4-6 weeks.
Saddle Fitter
A Saddle Fitter makes sure every horse has a well fitted saddle that will keep them comfortable during their lessons at Lancers. A well fitting saddle plays an important role in ensuring the continued soundness of all of the Horses of Halifax.
Veterinarian
Our veterinary care team helps us ensure that all of our horses are healthy and provides regular teeth care.
Osteopath
Our horses also benefit from visits from an osteopath. Osteopaths use a wholistic approach to improve the horses’ mobility, function, and well being.
