Horse Care General First Aid Kit for the Stable
Always be prepared with a horse care general first aid kit with the essentials for an emergency. Keep the emergency kit in full view and in an easy to reach place in the barn. Hang it up on a hook and paint a large red cross on the front of the box or bag in which the materials are to be kept.
