Horse Blanket Girl: No Blur

As the winter months approach, many horse owners find themselves wondering whether or not their equine friends need a warm blanket to keep them comfortable and healthy. If you own a senior horse who struggles to put weight on, blanketing them during the winter is a must! Shivering and trying to stay warm uses up a lot more calories than your poor old pony needs to burn.

So, how can you tell if your horse needs to be blanketed? There are several signs to look out for:

* If your horse is shivering or appears uncomfortable in cold weather

* If they have a thin or patchy coat, making them prone to heat loss

* If they have a history of respiratory problems, as cold air can exacerbate these issues

On the other hand, some horses may not need to be blanketed at all. For example, if you live in an area where the winters are mild, your horse may be perfectly content without a blanket. Additionally, some breeds of horses, such as those with thick coats or built for cold climates, may not require additional warmth.

If you do decide that your horse needs to be blanketed, there are several things to consider:

* What type of blanket is best for your horse? There are many styles and thicknesses available, each suitable for different climates and breeds.

* How should you measure your horse for a blanket?

* At what temperature should you start blanketing your horse?

By taking the time to research these questions and understand your horse's individual needs, you can help keep them comfortable and healthy throughout the winter months.

As someone who lives in the hot and sunny desert of Arizona, I know that even in mild winters, some horses still need a little extra warmth. But don't worry if you're new to blanketing - with a little guidance, you'll be well on your way to keeping your horse cozy and content all winter long.

So, whether you're a seasoned horse owner or just starting out,
