HORSE SWIMMING POOL

In Britain, a unique horse fitness program has been developed by Colonel Jack Gibson, featuring an oversized swimming pool. This pool, built in a barn, is over seven feet deep and holds 33,000 gallons of water. Horses, being natural swimmers, benefit greatly from this exercise, with five minutes in the water equating to a mile's hard gallop.
