Here’s my rules.
1. Always wear pants and boots.
2. Never wrap the lead rope around your hand or arm.
3. Don’t turn a horse out with a halter on.
4. Don’t smoke in the barn.
5. Never leave a horse tied up alone for a long time.

Riding comes with a lot of responsibility and with responsibility comes rules. Rules aren’t there to bring you down, they’re there to help you along the way. The sign doesn’t say “pick your horses feet” for no reason! In a way, rules are reminders to get back on track!

Horses can be very dangerous, though the benefits of riding are worth it in the end. Riding and being around horses requires a few rules though. All barn rules revolve around the safety of the horse and rider, if they are both are safe, then all is usually well.

Please Pick…
Please pick your horses hooves as you exit the arena to leave valuable footing in the arena and out of the barn isles. Also pick poop after you ride to keep footing nice for everyone 🙂

In my barn we have a few rules.
1) No jumping over 8 inches without a horsey adult on hand.
2) Whenever trail riding bring someone with you.
3) When you are the last to leave the barn, check up on all the horses if they are in and turn off all the lights.
4) HAVE FUN!!
