Heat & Horses

On a day when temperatures in areas of the US and Canada are 30+ degrees higher than normal, we could all use as much information as possible to ensure our horses are given the best chance to perform safely and successfully.

This a link to the 2020 USEA article by Dr. David Marlin: https://useventing.com/news-media/news/the-weather-is-heating-up-keep-your-horses-temperature-down

And this is a link to a recent article in The Horse that discusses a study done to determine the best method to cool horses after exercise: https://thehorse.com/1101202/hosing-hot-horses-post-exercise-scrape-off-water-or-reapply/

And of course, once you’ve found the horse of your dreams, consider protecting that financial investment by putting an equine insurance policy in place. To find out more, go to Horse Insurance and FAQs pages. And if you’re interested in a quote, visit our Horse Insurance Quote page.

Stay cool out there!
