A Good Life for Horses:  Life Outside of Competition with David O’Connor

Olympic equestrian David O’Connor discusses the time horses spend outside of competition and training. What does a good life look like for horses day-to-day? O’Connor’s strategy to maximize horse happiness consists of three F’s: forage (sufficient feed and hay), friends (interaction with humans and other horses), and freedom (ample opportunity to turn out, hand graze, and socialize).
