The Phantom Stallion

Phantom Stallion E-Newsletter October 2008

Welcome

Trick or treat!! It's almost time for Halloween, costumes and sweets! Your horse may not be able to go trick-or-treating with you, but can still enjoy some of the fun Halloween has to offer.

If you're careful, you can dress your horse up to accompany your own costume. Just be sure not to put anything irritating or hazardous on them like certain kinds of paint or masks. Click here for some great Halloween horse-and-owner costume pairs!

Another way to really make your horse enjoy Halloween is to let him indulge in horse-friendly treats. Just be sure you never include peanuts in your horse treat recipes–they can be hard for horses to digest.

Here are a few delicious treat recipes (remember to have your parents help you with the sharp or hot parts!) for your equine friends:

How exciting is this???

Jen, Jake and I have to do a public service project for school, so we're helping out with a costume contest at the elementary school. That's not the exciting part, but this is: we get to have the kids put on a neighborhood parade and for that, we're supposed to ride our horses in costume . . .

Did you know?

A zorse is the offspring of a zebra stallion and a horse mare? It is a zebroid: this term refers to any hybrid equine with zebra ancestry. The zorse is shaped more like a horse than a zebra, but has boldly striped legs and, often, stripes on the body or neck.

Another (much more common) horse hybrid is a mule, which is the offspring of a male donkey and a female horse.
