About this statute

This section says the regulation sets animal welfare requirements for keeping horses, and also applies to ponies, donkeys, and similar hoofed animals. Horse stables and related equipment must be kept clean, safe, and suitable for horses, and certain materials may not be used in a way that could poison horses. Horse stables must have enough indoor height, a suitable divider between boxes or stalls, safe flooring, and bedding in the lying area. Horse stables must keep ventilation, temperature, lighting, and noise within safe limits, and mechanical ventilation setups must have backup and alarm arrangements when needed. Bestämmelsen anger minimimått för hästspiltor och vissa krav när hästar hålls i grupp, samt ett undantag för kortvarig tillfällig förvaring under resor.
