It costs you nothing, but a good deed is done :-)
If you want to touch the beautiful, and there is very little free time, then do as we do - go along the E-95 highway towards Zhashkiv. After passing the city, turn around and follow the sign towards the equestrian club. Just a few kilometers and you will find yourself in a paradise for horses and horses, where more than two hundred beautiful animals live.
At the entrance you will find a show jumping field where competitions are regularly held. And according to the guide, all competitions are free to visit. Just call, find out the dates of the competitions and come to enjoy the beauty and grace of four-legged athletes.
The sand cover of the field is constantly watered from water cannons so that the sand flying out from under the hooves does not get into the eyes of the competitors. Judging by the number of cups that you meet when entering the main building, local students are very successful in their careers.
The most touching place in the complex is the "kindergarten". Girls and boys are kept in separate pens, opposite each other. The boys are very active, bully each other, and the girls are very nice, waiting for attention, and when you come up to them, they poke their faces, fondle and turn their cheeks out for stroking. Here's a look at how beautiful the "kindergarten girls" are.
Westphalian horses are bred in the complex near Zhashkiv. It is believed that they are very talented in dancing and prancing, and of course they are very beautiful, we confirm this!
Here are the "boys" from the kindergarten in the photo. Very energetic, active and cheerful.
In stalls where adult horses live, you cannot take pictures with a flash, so as not to frighten the inhabitants. The coordinates of their parents are written next to each pet, and the DIETOLOGIST (!!!!), depending on the current state of the animal, gives his recommendations on nutrition: add the norm to someone by 0.5, and to someone lower it. All the horses we saw were very sociable and smart. Some of them wanted attention so much that they talked with each of the guests.
See what spa treatments are for local horses. The most obligatory thing is washing, every horse must be clean. In the same room, after washing, they can also get a beautiful tan. A solarium is a very necessary procedure, because in the fall, when the sunny day is shrinking, artificial sunlight can cure depression in emotional horses. Well, the treadmill for horses saves them from physical inactivity. According to the staff, some horses cannot be kicked off the treadmill, they like it so much that they clatter their hooves and demand to continue training.
Now let's show you the corral where the pregnant horses are kept. This is how they look. According to the rules of breeders, a horse must give birth for 4 years in a row, and then it deserves a year off.
In addition to the Westphalian horses, several other horse breeds are kept here.
Here is a heavyweight in front of you, which amazes with its muscles and article.
We highly recommend that you come here. As much joy and kindness as these horses give, in our time it is difficult to find anywhere else. See for yourself - they are just beautiful!
