I’m getting a new pony 16 yrs quarter pony 14.0 hands, and have never had my own horse before. I’m trying to keep my costs as minum as they can be. Please tell me:

How often should I deworm, and what is the cost per tube?
How often should teeth be floated, cost?
How often should i get her feet trimmed (no shoes), cost?

Am I forgetting anything? Thanks.

I was looking in an old Country Supply catalog and they had a health care book (like the kind you get for a new puppy) and I can’t seem to find it online now. Am I just possibly looking in the wrong places?
