There is always the need to groom your horses before a ride since this gives you the opportunity to bond with your horse while keeping the skin and hooves clean. You would also identify with experience if your horse is not well or maybe lame which will prompt you to call your equine veterinarian.
After grooming, put your saddle on the horse beginning with a comfortable saddle pad. Fix your bridle which is more of the headgear of a horse with a bit and reins on from which your horse will be governed. From this stage, you need to mount your horse.
