For some horses being in a stall is a fate worse than death. They hate it, and they can begin to feel closed in and panicky. For these horses a mare motel or a 3 sided shed may be more comfortable for them. If your horse does not mind the stall and you don't mind cleaning the stall, then yes I think it is best to put them in a stall. The stay dry, and warmer. A horse outside in the weather uses a lot of energy just trying to stay warm. Sometimes they will need more food, and richer food like grains and oats.

If you choise to keep your horse out in bad weather, make sure he has a blanket (waterproof of course) and at least a 3 sided shed that keeps most of the wind and rain off of him. Make sure that it is kept clean and always provide him with a dry place to stand and lay down. Rubber mats just for this purpose are wonderful. And when they need to be cleaned just hose them off and they are as good as new. Make sure that his bedding is thick and clean.
