The editors of Horse&Rider have picked their favorite items on Amazon that help make their horse lives easier—or are items we believe every horse owner should have. 

Garden Dump Cart

This cart is multi-purpose for horse owners. Use this cart at the barn to clean stalls and then easily dump manure our into your compost pile. Or use this cart in the tack room to easily tote saddles and tack to and from locations. It can pull up to 600 pounds and has a comfortable handle for pulling the wagon around.

Rolling Utility Cart

If you’re operating a large facility, making multiple trips back to the feed room to get feed isn’t efficient. Make one trip by using a three-tier rolling utility cart. The metal mesh baskets are big enough to hold scoops of grain and supplements, and are easy to clean if a spill is made.

Blocker Tie Ring

Safely tie your horse using a blocker tie ring. If your horse pulls back when tied and is constantly breaking things—not to mention also creating bad habits—the blocker tie ring will help to prevent destruction and help resolve your horse’s habit of pulling back. The tie ring allows your horse to pull slack in the rope, allowing him to seek release of pressure.
