A horse pond is a body of water used, and generally created, for the welfare of horses. Horses can drink water and wash their legs in these ponds. While horse ponds were once important for the welfare of horses, they are less common in the age of powered transportation. In the equine community, horse ponds are not commonly seen due to the invention of wash racks, water troughs, and antibacterial soaps, which did not exist when horses were used as a primary source of transportation. These ponds are still used today, however, they are more uncommon because they are less sanitary than the alternative options, and are harder to maintain.
