Cookies For Horses

1 cup oats

1/2 cup shredded carrot

1/2 cup finely diced apple

1 cup oatmeal

1/4 cup molasses

1/4 cup water

1 cup flour

teaspoon of sugar

1/2 teaspoon of salt

Preheat the oven to 360 degrees. Stir the ingredients into a sticky mixture. Roll the mix into balls with your hands. About a heaping spoonful of the mixture makes each ball. Grease a cookie sheet and arrange the balls on it. Bake for around 5 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool before feeding to your horsy pal. The treats can be stored at room temperature in a jar. They make a great gift for your favorite horse, or friend's horse. Enjoy the treats

A horse which stops dead just before a jump and thus propels its rider into a graceful arc provides a splendid excuse for general merriment.

~Duke of Endinburgh

The respiration rate for a horse at rest is about 9 to 12 times a minute. this is tripled when the horse is walking and can rise as high as 120 breaths per minute with strenuous exercise in high temperatures.
