Introduction to Equine Care and Handling is designed to provide a basic foundation for working with horses. Using hands-on activities with horses, the lessons teach elements of safety while handling a horse, horse ownership: general terminology, horse selection, stabling requirements, and basic care of the healthy horse. Students gain a greater understanding of conformation and selection of the horse, costs of ownership, nutrition, grooming, anatomy and care of the hoof, health care, breeds, and colors.
