Horses will appreciate their caregivers following this advice when selecting and using his blankets this winter:
- Check the fit of blankets each year
- Consider getting your horse “underwear”
- Multiple blankets? Mark them according to the appropriate conditions for their use
- If temperatures fluctuate, blanket for the anticipated high of the day
- Remove blankets daily, or at least every other day, to get a good look underneath
