What can happen if you don't clean out your horses stall?

it gets stinky It's not just a matter of stinky. It's a matter of health. When a horse has to stand in a dirty stall he can develope hoof problems. Horse urine can be very strong, almost caustic, when it is concentrated. The next is the horse's lungs. They can develope lung problems from the above mentioned urine smell. These may not be as easy to clear up as hoof problems. If the stall has little or no ventalation problems can appear in a small amount of time. And last but not least is the horse's mental and emotional health. Horses are meant to live outdoors and when they are kept in a small box (stall) they can start to go stir crazy. Cleaning your horse's stall is a great opportunity to get your horse out while you clean.
