Stall cards with owner, vet and emergency contacts
If something goes wrong at the barn, the stall card is where people look for a phone number. This page covers what to put on one and the layouts that have room for it.
Layouts with room for details
Info cards put the name across the top with the details in one or two columns underneath, which makes a phone number quick to find. Split layouts have a big name on one side and the details on the other.
If you only need a line or two, most of the regular name layouts can hold a couple of contacts under the barn name.
Feeding notes
A few layouts have space for feeding notes. People use them for hay and grain amounts, supplements, and anything the horse shouldn’t get. It’s useful for whoever feeds on weekends or when you’re away.
Leave a line blank to fill in
A contact line or the stall number can be printed blank, with just its label, so you can write it in by hand. That helps when the vet or farrier changes, when horses move stalls, or when you’re ordering signs before every horse is settled.
What to put on a stall card
- The owner’s name and a cell number that gets answered.
- An emergency contact who isn’t the owner, for when the owner can’t be reached.
- Vet and farrier, with phone numbers.
- The stall number, if your barn uses them.
- Feeding notes: amounts, times, and anything the horse can’t have.
- Only what someone would need in a hurry. A crowded card is harder to read in an emergency.
