What is track livery to WLTL:
Track livery is designed to support horses and ponies with a wide range of physical and behavioural needs. This includes those managing conditions such as Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS), Laminitis, Pituitary Pars Intermedia Dysfunction (PPID/Cushing’s), arthritis, and PSSM.
It can also be especially beneficial for horses and ponies that find traditional stabling stressful — the box walkers, weavers, head shakers, or those prone to stress-induced ulcers. By living in a more natural environment, many horses become calmer, healthier, and more settled.
Track livery offers enrichment that many equines naturally seek: access to trees, hedgerows, water, movement, companionship, and the ability to make choices throughout the day. Social interaction is a huge part of equine mental wellbeing, and many horses thrive when they can build relationships, move freely, or choose time alone when they need it.
We’ve welcomed horses that arrived dragging owners, biting, kicking, or struggling to cope — and within a few months, transformed into calmer, happier, more content versions of themselves.
As owners, we can sometimes anthropomorphise our equines and assume they want what we would choose. In reality, most horses simply want the basics done well: friends, forage, and freedom — freedom to choose shelter, where to wander, when to socialise, when to rest, and simply the space to be themselves.
Here at WLTL every horse or pony is part of our family! ❤️
