This year in the UK, Father’s Day in the UK falls on Sunday, 19 June, so we’ve found a great selection of horsey gifts for your dad. Whether’s he an un-horsey dad who deserves a medal and never had to get close to a horse until you showed an interest, or has many tales to tell of his hunting days pre-ban, the chances are your dad has helped you (and your horse) out at some point.
Dads are often seen doing heavy lifting at the yard, stepping in to be a last-minute driver or groom, or getting in the bacon rolls on show day – so we reckon he deserves a treat. Whether you’re looking for a keepsake, day out, funny gift or card, one of these horsey Father’s Day gifts should do the trick…
