"Can a horse wear a fly mask during an adaptive riding lesson?"- Ask an Adaptive/Therapeutic Horseback Riding Instructor (#9)
Ask an Adaptive Riding Instructor is a mini-series answering questions submitted from instructors all over the globe!
In this episode I answer the question: "Can a horse wear a fly mask during an adaptive riding lesson?"
While answering the question I'll talk about:
Safety considerations when an equine wears a fly mask during a lesson.
My preferred "layering" of the fly mask with other equipment.
Important actions and thoughts to take before deciding if a horse wears a fly mask during class
Is a fly mask a good fit for every horse?
Are there any standards that say horses can/can’t wear fly masks during lessons?
