One thing that you will notice when watching action or fantasy movies, are the horses that has been the mode of transportation before. Not only that the chariots are tied on them, they are also used as the means of traveling when warriors go to battles. With its speed and lean body, they were considered the best friends of these chivalrous knights. However, strong they may be, they still need pampering and an equine fencing to keep them safe.

A horse has to be kept in a pasture. The land has to be vast and needed maintenance especially when it has four different seasons. It needs more grasses to grazed and a large room for exercise. The basic exercise that is done by this animal is running the whole area so these fences has to be built so that they would not get lost.

The fencing has to be visible so that the horses will not come running into it. By it being visible, they know where the limitation of there place is. Barbed wires are not recommended because of the possibility of tearing the hide. High tensile wires are not also recommended because the strands might entangle them.

Board and woven wire are ideal for them since they see distance more clearly . Particularly with a single board on top so that they can easily see the boarder. This will keep them from running into it and destroying what you built.

This should be well constructed with high quality of materials that are used. This is to ensure that it will last long with few repairs. Remember that you will place stallions there. They are strong and they can damage a thing with just one single kick. It has to be like them, sturdy and strong.

Also, it can not be moved so it makes sense to build something that will last for long. May be not a last time especially when it is an open area where heat and rain are ubiquitous. But as much as possible, the repairs will be minimized compare the ones which were damaged easily because of the cheaper materials used.

But there are also movable fences, if you wish to make it. However, they are not as efficient as the permanent ones. They are less pricey and can be transported from a place to another. They are also known as temporary fences which will last for a short time.

Whatever your choice is, do not forget the property line. Do not forget to fix it, nothing more, and nothing less. This is to ensure the peace among the neighborhood since their livestock is not harmed, and you did not unknowingly steal.

As an individual who has the love for horses, it is your responsibility to keep them from going astray to a world of wilderness. Tough they may seem, but they need pampering and a safe to dwell in. Installing equine fencing can be tough of a job. But it is all worth the candle.
