The horse has two natural de
fenses against cold, a long hair
coat and a layer of fat beneath
the skin. Both provide an excel
lent means of insulation against
the cold. The long winter hair
coat serves as insulation by re
ducing the loss of body heat and
provides the first line of defense
against the cold. Its insulating
value is lost when the horse be
comes wet and/or is covered
with mud. This is why it is im
portant to provide a dry
sheltered area in cold wet
weather and regular grooming.
In damp weather, be alert for
rain rot and other skin prob
lems. If unchecked, rain rot can
result in hair loss and irritation
to the horse. It is very important
to keep the horse from losing its
hair coat and body weight and
approaching an energy deficient
state (the horse must be properly
fed).
Most nutritional needs of the
horse do not change during the
winter season. Vitamin, mineral
and protein requirements will
still depend upon the horse’s age
and physiological status and not
on the time of year. The horse
should be fed according to body
condition. Thin horses should be
fed some supplemental grain in
addition to good quality hay to
assure enough energy to pro
duce warmth, while a fat horse
will require little or no increase
from their fall diet. Most mature
horses that are idle and in good
flesh can survive the winter
quite well on good quality hay
and ample clean water.

While horses need shelter
from cold winds, rain and snow;
it is not necessary to keep them
in a closed barn throughout the
winter. Horses kept outdoors in
the winter with access to a run
in shed, that opens away from
the normal wind patterns, will
generally have fewer respiratory
disease problems than horses
kept in poorly ventilated, heated
barns. With a three-sided shed,
the horse can take shelter during
a rain or snowstorm and its insu
lating hair remains dry and
fluffed. When the storm is over,
the horse can emerge and be
comfortable even though the
mercury has dropped below
zero. Horses maintained in an
enclosed barn should be ex
ercised regularly, to maintain
mdscling and health.
One important aspect of care
that often is neglected is hoof
care. Even though you are not
regularly riding the horse, the
hooves still grow during the
winter months. In addition, the
horse is traveling on uneven,
frozen ground that can crack
and break feet. Have the shoes
removed and the hooves
trimmed before turning the
horse out for winter, and have
the feet trimmed on a regular
basis. This insures that when
spring arrives, the horse will
have sound hooves that will be
capable of holding a shoe.
The important thing is do
qot just turn horses out and
forget about them. Every day at
every feeding, horses should
receive at least a visual exami
nation.
