The equine’s height, body length, neck, and girth circumference is used to calculate the weight. Along with the horse’s estimated body weight, ideal body weight and body weight score will be calculated. The ideal body weight with the body weight score for each individual Arabian, pony, and stock horse is used to assess the likelihood of being over-weight. This information can be used to alter current feeding patterns in hopes of maintain a healthier body weight for the horse.Horse App Based on BreedIn today’s market, there are few horse related apps that can accurately estimate body weights for adult Arabians, stock horses, saddle horses, ponies, and miniatures.
