When your setting up a place for your horse to live in, you have to set it up in a certain way.You need a large space(small stables NOT recamended unless you have a HUGE field to let them out at least 4 times a day)You will need a big trough to fill up with water,and a big bucket of hay, salt rocks and if needed,cover the ground with straw.You will also need a fenced outdoor area for the horse to run around in and you will need a door tall and wide enough for you and the horse to fit through.
