Does your horse get upset during fireworks? Read our tips
Although Firework night can be fun, it can be a worrying time for horse owners. Horses are often upset by both the sound and sight of fireworks going off.
Read these top tips from World Horse Welfare to help ease the stress of Firework Night.
- It may be best to stable your horse if firework displays are close by – sometimes just shutting the top door to lessen the effect of the flashing lights can help.
- Put a radio on to help mask the noise of the fireworks.
- Give your horse plenty of hay to keep it occupied.
- Check your horse during the evening to make sure they are ok. If you can, it’s often a good idea to stay with them because your presence may have a calming effect.
- Sometimes it’s a good idea to put cotton wool into their ears to muffle the sound. Not all horses will accept this, so consider your horse’s temperament, but it can make all the difference.
In the morning, or after the 5th November weekend, make sure you check the field for any stray fireworks.
Please feel free to post any other tips that may benefit other horse owners.

Equestrian Business Monthly reports Horses with Attitude’s sponsorship of Young Equestrian Leaders Award
Monthly trade title, Equestrian Business Monthly, reports that the RDA and Horses with Attitude have jointly launched the Young Equestrian Leaders Award:
Clothing and gift retailer Horses with Attitude is pleased to announce its sponsorship of the exciting new Young Equestrian Leaders Award (YELA) – an award programme developed by Riding for the Disabled (RDA) that launched at the Royal Windsor Horse Show.
The YELA has been developed for the British Equestrian Federation (BEF), to recognise the many young people that volunteer with a BEF member body, such as the RDA – the scheme is open to young people aged 13-25 and runs over three progressive levels. Gary Meynell, Sales Manager at Horses with Attitude said “We are thrilled to be sponsoring such a worthy project and look forward to a continuous association with the RDA over the next two years.
I was so impressed with the organisation and their enthusiasm for the YELA project, which has overwhelming support through the equestrian industry, after attending the launch at the Royal Windsor Horse Show.” To coincide with the launch of YELA at Royal Windsor, Horses with Attitude also donated 20 saddle clothes to the British Horse Society, for the All Breeds class.
