The basic duty of any horse lover is to keep horses fed and clean their stalls on a daily basis. This means forking manure into a chart and hauling it to the manure pile. This is a great job for beginners.

Every horse needs to be brushed and curried daily. Occasionally, they should be washed and groomed for show.

Most horses spend a considerable amount of time in their stalls; however, they should be walked daily in a ring and/or walked to the pasture for free-form exercise. This is also done as part of the training program for each horse.
