When searching for stocking stuffers for family and friends, horse lovers may be the easiest to please. Whether the person likes horses, owns horses or shows horses, use the following tips to select a stocking stuffers and other small gifts your horse lover will enjoy.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Find out what kind of horses the person is involved in and what kind of riding discipline they enjoy. English and Western riding differ greatly in the tack and supplies needed for each. Find out if there is a specific breed of horse the person owns or likes.

  2. Step 2

    Determine what type of riding the person enjoys--trail riding, competition, rodeo, jumping, racing or pleasure riding. Gifts can be specific to these different types of riding.

  3. Step 3

    Buy the horse lover useful small items, such as a decorative hoof pick or leather riding gloves. Grooming tools such as mini electric clippers or brushes and combs always come in handy.

  4. Step 4

    Give the horse lover horsey gifts that are pure fun such as horse T-shirts, candies in the shape of horses, horse coffee mugs, key chains, DVDs or books. These make great gifts for horse lovers who don't ride or own their own horses.

  5. Step 5

    Purchase more personal horsey items for people who own their own horses, like engraved nameplates for stalls or halters. A monogrammed halter is another alternative.

  6. Step 6

    Get things that the horse lover can enjoy with their horse such as horse treats, a stall toy for the horse or even horse cookies.

Tips & Warnings
  • If you don't know what type of riding they do (english, western, jumping, dressage etc) use more general type gifts such as horse care products. Or items that have images of horses with no tack on it.
  • Don't forget that gift certificates to your local tack shop or on line are a great gift appreciated by all horse riders and lovers!
