Best Answer

A horse that does not require a lot of attention in terms of not needing lots of special food or constant attention by a veterinarian or farrier (horse shoer) generally is called "an easy keeper".

But don't forget that horses are herd animals and need to have lots of attention from their herd mates (other horses) and lots of care and affection from those who own them.

All horses need a safe environment, access to grass or hay, a constant supply of fresh water, daily attention, and periodic visits from the vet and the farrier.

How do you care for a Palomino Horse?

Horses take a TON of responsibility, work, care, and money$$$. Every day, you have to feed, groom, exercise, and muck out the horse's stall. You have to muck out the stall twice a day in the summer, because of insects/parasites. You have to clean the horse's tack, grooming supplies, blankets, and all supplies. You have to have vet checks, and a farrier to take care of your horse's hooves. You ALWAYS have to put the horse's needs over yours, and its NOT just riding. You should spend much more time caring/spending time with your horse than riding. A horse has emotions and needs, and you can't just get on, ride around, and throw the horse back into the stall. Take a ton of riding lessons first and learn a BUNCH about horse care before purchasing/adopting a horse.
