When would you need a balket for your horse?
A blanket? This varies, depending on preference. I use a waterproof 'rain rug' for my horses during the wet season. During winter, or whenever I clip my horses, I use a winter rug to keep them warm. It's particularly for elderly horses or those with fine coats, but it's good to rug every winter.

Which season would a horse need a blanket in?
It depends where you live to be honest! All domesticated horses usually wear blankets in winter, but can be heavyweight rugs, mediumweight rugs or lightweight rugs. Some horses need their rugs in late autumn or early spring, when the temperatures are still quite cold from winter. You can easily build up from lightweight to heavyweight between seasons. You can also layer rugs if the weather is very cold, such as using a cotton sheet underneath. My pony suffers from sweet itch quite badly, so needs her fly rug in late spring, all of summer and early autumn. Horses can also benefit from summer sheets in the summer, to protect skin from sunburn if necessary, or light cotton sheets. Stables rugs and coolers are great for horses which are stabled a lot of the time. Just remember, use rugs according to a winter coat clip, if it has one.
Why should you clip a horse?
You should clip any horse in the winter that is doing enough work to sweat a lot, because with their winter coats they take longer to cool out and get colder with their heavy coats preventing the sweat from evaporating. Clipped horses should always be blanketed at least at night and it is an act of kindness to leave the legs and long whiskers on the chin unclipped.

What is a hunter clip?
Horses grow long coats in winter. Horses that are ridden or worked can become overheated very fast so it is usual to cut off most of this excessive hair. This is called clipping. Clips can be just a few lines of hair to allow sweat to drain off or almost the entire coat. The hunter clip is one of the more extreme, leaving the hair long only on the lower legs, belly, saddle patch and parts of the face and neck. This clip is used on horses that work very hard, such as racehorses, eventers or hunters.
