   With summer just around the corner and the warmer weather starting to give a taste of what's to come here are five ways you can spend time with your horse relaxing. Summer is the time to horse show every weekend but, just like we need a day off, sometimes our horses need a break from training and the routine.

Go for a Trail Ride

Wether you go for a walk around your barn or trailer out to the trails, this can be a great way to get together with friends and enjoy some beautiful scenery. 

Go for a Swim

Some horses will think this is more fun than others but combining sun, sand, water and horses make for a wonderful mini vacation.

Go for a Bareback Graze

Maybe after you ride or if you are just feeling like enjoying the sound of your horse eating grass, going for a bareback graze can be just what the doctor ordered.

Give Your Horse a Bath

Sometimes giving your horse a bath and getting them to look their best without the pressures of a show can be a great way to look after your horse. And going out to let them graze while they dry can be so peaceful.

Practice Your Ground Work Skills

There is so much to learn about horses. Doing some groundwork or going to a clinic to learn something outside of your regular discipline can really help you learn more about what your horse needs from you.
