Christmas cards – with a horsey twist, of course


  • Horse & Hound is supported by its audience. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. Learn more
  • I’m a traditional and love sending (and receiving!) a card, whether it’s Christmas, birthday or ‘thinking of you’. If you’re the same, why not let your loved ones know you’re thinking of them this year with one of our favourite horse Christmas cards. Many Christmas cards also support a charity and if you would specifically like to support an equine or equestrian cause, you can jump down to view the cards that support horsey charities.

    Some cards are sold individually making them perfect for a special someone, while others are sold as a pack to send out to all your friends, so make sure you check you have the right amount before you buy.
