Curly Horse
Turnout & work
A large equine such as a Curly Horse is built to move and graze for much of the day. Daily turnout, consistent exercise suited to their fitness, and a job to think about all support a sound body and mind. Build any work up gradually.
Temperament & herd life
Horses are herd animals who read body language keenly and settle best with equine company and calm, consistent handling. A Curly Horse's manners and confidence come from patient groundwork and trust rather than breed reputation.
Everyday care
The basics are constant access to forage, fresh water, shelter, routine hoof care, dental checks, and a vaccination and parasite plan with your vet. Introduce feed changes slowly. This is orientation only — an equine vet and farrier guide the specifics for your Curly Horse.
