A simple shelter in your horse's field can be so handy! Your animals can use it to escape the sun, wind, rain, and even bugs. Unfortunately, building a new run in can cost a lot of money. Here's your solution- a horse shelter made from round pen panels, cattle panels, and a tarp! It's affordable and easy to make.
