As a horse owner and being who I am, I feel it as a part of me to offer my horses a nice home.  One where they can be safe and happy.  Happy enough that is, considering that they are domesticated animals that could easily thrive wandering in the wild.  This factor contributes to how my wife and I maintain our horse dwelling.  We try to keep it a fairly natural environment.  One where they have their space and we have ours.  Their space being a place where they are free to roam, eat, sleep and play.
