Sleigh your Christmas shopping with these last-minute gifts for that special equine in your life. Whatever you choose, we guarantee there will be no long faces in the barn this season.
1. Horse Advent Calendar
Why should you be the only one enjoying daily treats in the lead-up to Christmas? Horse advent calendars are filled with horse-safe goodies, offering your equine friend a tasty surprise every day. This is a perfect way to share the holiday excitement with your horse while keeping them engaged.
2. Unicorn Horn for Your Horse
Surely every horse (and maybe every donkey) has dreamt of being a unicorn. You can make that wish come true for your equine bestie with a soft, fun unicorn horn. These safe and comfortable accessories attach to your horse’s bridle or halter and are perfect for a special festive selfie with your horsey pal.
3. Horse Hair Dye
Dyeing for a new look this yuletide? Why not let your equine join in? Horse-safe, non-toxic hair dye is what the well-dressed horse is rocking this season. It’s easy to add vibrant streaks or subtle highlights to their mane and tail for a touch of festive fabulousness.
4. Horse Pajamas
We all love cozying up in new pajamas at Christmas—and now your horse can too! Equine pajamas are practical for keeping them warm and clean in winter. They also happen to be totally adorable. Some brands even offer matching sets for you and your horse, making for the perfect holiday photo opportunity.
5. Carrot Dispenser
No horse can resist a carrot. So, a carrot dispenser is a snow-brainer this season. These enrichment tools are designed to encourage your horse to engage with their environment while dispensing healthy treats at intervals. Just watch out for Santa’s reindeers – they might want to have a go too!
6. Horse-Friendly Beer
Don’t panic, we’re not tempting your horse into bad habits. Horse-friendly beer is made with oats or barley and is non-alcoholic. In some cases, it can even have health benefits such as improving digestion and encouraging hydration. Be sure to consult your vet before indulging in this quirky treat, and then raise a glass with your equine friend!
7. Glow-in-the-Dark Tack
Why should Christmas trees have all the fun? Light up these dark winter nights and stay safe too with glow-in-the-dark tack. Whether it’s halters, saddle pads or reflective leg wraps, they make nighttime rides or walks a whole lot safer. And, they add a bit of festive cheer too.
8. Digital Stable App Subscription
The Digital Stable app is a real game-changer in equine care, helping you protect your horse's identity, health, and location with a Santa sack full of features including:
- Uploading and managing health documents (e.g., vaccine records).
- Tracking appointments to stay on top of your horse’s health.
- A Lost and Found function to reunite you with your horse if they go missing.
- Assigning your horse a unique ID number to keep all records in one place.
So, there you have it, a whole bunch of fab presents no horse could say neigh to. The festive season is about sharing the magic—and your horse deserves to feel it, too. Merry Christmas!
