Beat the Winter Chill: Keep Warm While Riding Your Horse This Winter
Announcement posted by Feed Digital 21 May 2021
With winter approaching, dropping temperatures and shorter amounts of daylight are a concern for all horse owners. It's a completely valid concern too, because low temperatures can cause cold muscles, slower moving joints and leave your horse feeling stiff and uncomfortable.
If your horse is not warmed up properly, they are more susceptible to injury due to lowered shock absorption and flexibility. And then there’s sweaty horses with thick winter coats that take a really long time to dry off after work.
It’s not all doom and gloom though! Winter is a beautiful time to be spending time with your equine partner! Luckily, there are many ways to keep your horse warm before, during, and after your ride.
