Product Description

Review

With newspaper headlines proclaiming economic doom and gloom, all thoughts are turning to ways to save money. So this guide to 'cost effective horse management' serves as a timely reminder that owning a horse doesn't have to mean an empty bank account. Who needs expensive new kit when you can design and make your own at a fraction of the price? Practical tips from the inventive author include how to turn old duvets into cosy stable rugs, home-made poultice recipes and ways to go 'green' around the yard. With step-by-step instructions and easy to follow pictorial guides, you'll be stirring up your own shampoo before you know it. --Horse & Hound

The level of detail provided, in a simple and straightforward way, is impressive and very easy to follow. I think that this book would encourage every horse owner to try some of the tips and isn't just for super-practical people. I think that the recipes provided for fly repellents, shampoos and horse treats are well worth trying and potentially an area where a lot of owners can make savings. I would recommend this book to any horse howner who is trying to keep costs down. A lot of advice, although involving a little time and effort, will certainly save you money in the long run and allow you to have your own, personalised range of horsy gear. --Equestrian Trade News

This is a great reference book for all horsey people and would make a lovely gift. The book is full of hints and tips to make your money go further by making your own or recycling - which is perfect for the current economic climate. How to make the items is nice and clear and most products have diagrams or pictures to show you what you are aiming for. The make your own shampoo, conditioner and rinse section is great as it explains exactly what oils to use to particular skin types and purposes. --Central Horse News

Product Description

Just the book for any horse owner in the current economic climate! Budget Horse & Pony Care offers an array of ideas and advice on making hard-earned money go a little further. Horse products can be expensive and the lure of new kit is sometimes hard to resist, especially with increasingly elaborate designs - horse 'bling' is in! However, there are a wide range of items that can be made for a fraction of the cost, ranging from equine beauty products, first aid liniments, and rugs and blankets, to showjumps and horse treats with everything in between. Budget Horse & Pony Care gives easy instructions on making all manner of equestrian items, and explains how to 'bling' up existing horse and rider gear with minimal expenditure, while also providing an array of tips and hints on top turnout. There is also a comprehensive section offering advice on how to be more ecologically friendly and save money by assessing stable management practices. It is packed full of essential, practical and simple ways of saving pennies and making the most of your horse money while providing extensive information on show turnout. An indispensable book for any horse enthusiast.
