It would be nice to be able to assign 2 treats to the preferred treat section. For example, my Dressage horses need yellow apples and green apples. Right now, we can only assign one of those treats. It would be much easier to have two treats next to each other and we can click on one of them daily instead of going to manage treat, search the horse in the long list, swap the treat, return to the horse, and then feed them.

Not saying you have to use these suggestions or anything but here are ones I use/have used in the past to make things easier.

If you have auto-care, switch out the treats every week/every other week. I stopped using auto care because I felt I could get my stats more even if I hand cared.

If you hand care, there are a few ways I have done this. 

Back before we had divisions, I separated my horses by herds and would just know where each herd was different discipline by memory. I would go through, giving those that needed treats their treats (by this I mean, lets using driving for example and lets say I have red apple set on the horses, if their strength was low I would feed them the apple and if not I wouldn't touch the treat). Once that was done I would go to my inventory and dole out the opposite treats, starting from the top.

Find the treats that disciplines have in common and doing the same sort of thing as above also works out really well, for instance, Endurance, Driving and Racing all need turnips, so I would assign the opposite treats (green apple, red apple and carrots) on the horses page and then do the same thing as above, made it super easy just having to click turnips for a longer stretch in the inventory afterwards!

Sorting your horses by their discipline and putting it in the front of their name somehow also helps with keeping discipline types together/letting you know where you are while treating, for example I have my Show Jumping horses in the Show Jumping division, but also have SJ in front of their names so I don't lose track of which treats to give to which horses.

Again, you don't have to do any of these things, I just thought I would throw you some ideas at you so you wouldn't have to go looking through a long list to find a particular horse :)

That's a good temporary solution. It's still a hassle but not as bad as swapping treats.

Good idea. I hate to swap treats too, that's why I don't at all xD With auto care it could just pick a random one, 50/50 chance.

I am wondering why there are all those "I don't support this" here, especially without any reasoning. What's your arguments against having that small feature which you don't have to use if you don't want to?

I support this, it would be practical.

i like keeping my stats even so this would be nice! and as said above if people don't want something like this they could always opt out, the treat assignment menu could just allow you to pick one OR two treats. also if you don't have one of the treats auto care could just use the other one and let you know you've run out of a treat as usual.

This suggestion duplicates the one here, so this one will be locked.
