How the Jolly Tug Keeps Lockwood Happy, Active, and Engaged

Lockwood, a 7-year-old OTTB, is a young and active horse who tends to get bored easily. When boredom hits, things get broken. His owner turned to Horsemen’s Pride products to help keep him enriched, engaged, and less destructive throughout the day.

Out of all the products he’s tried, Lockwood’s clear favorite is the Jolly Tug. The biggest reason: he can’t destroy it. The durability of the cover stands out, especially compared to large ball covers, which he tears quickly. The strength of the Jolly Tug allows him to play without limits.

Lockwood enjoys using his Jolly Tug during turnout. One of his favorite ways to play is when his owner hands him the handle so he can take off running with it. This simple routine keeps him entertained, stimulated, and moving, all of which help support his overall well-being.

Since introducing Horsemen’s Pride products, his owner has seen a noticeable shift in Lockwood’s mood and energy. He’s happier, more content, and far less destructive, showing just how beneficial the right enrichment can be for an active horse.

Lockwood’s experience is a reminder for all horse owners: “Horses weren’t meant to be stalled all the time,” says his owner, Merritt. They get bored, and providing the right outlets for movement and play can make a meaningful difference in their behavior and happiness.
