Your horse's winter coat provides essential protection from frigid temperatures, biting winds and snow and ice. When the temperatures rise, breezes turn balmy and the rains warm up with spring, however, that same coat can be uncomfortable and unsightly as it begins to shed. Shedding is natural, but the process can take several weeks and in the meantime your horse will look shaggy and the extra hair may attract unwanted dirt, bacteria and insects. Fortunately, it's easy for you to help your horse shed that winter coat and look its best for spring.
Helping Your Horse Shed
There are several safe, easy ways to help your horse lose its overgrown winter coat, including…
Winter May Not Be Over
Even though your horse is shedding and you are helping the process along, winter may not be quite over and your horse may still need the protection of a heavier winter coat in case of a late spring freeze, storm or general cold snap. Keep a thick blanket handy to use if necessary, and be sure your horse has protection from the weather such as an open shed or windbreak in the corral or pasture. Also be prepared to bring your horse back into the stable if needed in especially turbulent spring weather.
Shedding is a natural, seasonal process for your horse to renew its coat, and while it may seem like a messy process, there are easy ways you can improve shedding and keep your horse more comfortable from one season to the next.
This a great shop for homeowners, farms and folks raising animals. Lovely location right beside the railroad in historic Sykesville. Always have what I need at reasonable prices. Seed and fertilizer at better prices than Lowe's and Home Depot.
