Paddock Paradise, history and examples.

Not all of this will be useful or benefit your horse or be practical. Every horse and environment is unique. But the basic premise is to respect the horse as a species and try to improve their lifestyle and welfare. Some of the observations and science behind this concept, have been improved upon and superseded since this was released. I personally don’t necessarily endorse all of the information, but I take what I think is good and helpful and works for me and my horses and donkeys and I encourage you to do the same.

The photos in this post are my own, but there are also some interesting ideas in the link I’ve shared. A quote from the attached link:-

“Paddock Paradise is a ‘management or boarding concept’ based on the lifestyles of the naturally healthy U.S. Great Basin wild horses. It was conceived as a way for horse owners to provide domestic equines with an environment that more closely resembles their natural habitat. It was not until Jaime Jackson published the book, Paddock Paradise: A Guide to Natural Horse Boarding, that the concept of providing horses with a similar enrichment environment was even discussed.”
