Gail, he is on a flat pasture. If we had sun (long time without) I would
think he would change sides and hence face west. I hope it is not an omen!!
Or maybe I am making too much of it. But every time I go out or look out he

Our fjords face northeast most of the time because the wind usually comes
from the southwest. They like to face away from where the wind comes from!
And we almost always have a "breeze". When we get those cold winds coming

Facing east puts him broadside to South, where the
winter sun comes from. Of course West facing would
do the same. Is he consistently facing uphill or
down? I would expect him to prefer facing uphill.

The best solution that I have found is to rip out the T-posts and replace
them with a good wood post. Yes it cost more and takes more time, but it
will be less than the vet bills in the long run. I have never had a horse
hurt

The static discussion is an interesting one for sure.
One thing you can try to do is not wear polyester type of
clothes. Some fabrics are much more static producing than others
are. Cotton is usually pretty good for static.

I've found that spraying the horse lightly with Static Guard, the same spray
you might use to eliminate static cling in your clothing, before you begin
grooming, works fairly well. If your horse is accustomed to fly spray, he

Working on a dirt surface can be helpful depending on the moisture content in
