Depends on your state, but in most cases no. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court recently decided that riding a horse drunk is not a DUI as a horse is not a vehicle. See link. ADDED: Its never wise to make positive statements involving the law or it's enforcement. Like most things involving the law it can depend on where you are.

Can you get a DUI if you are riding a horse drunk?

The charge would probably be 'public intoxication'. Not in most states. You need to be "Operating a Motor Vehicle" and a horse is not a motor vehicle. If you do some research on the web you can be armed with as much knowledge and info as an expensive traffic attorney. You will be able to argue your case and maybe get a reduction or dismissal of the ticket.

Why is knowing how to groom a horse a marktable skill?

Being able to groom a horse completely and thoroughly allows you to 'market' your skills to other horse people who cannot or will not groom their own horses thus allowing you to charge them money for your services. being able to braid or band manes and tails and clip a horse can earn you even more money than just being able to do a thorough show grooming.
