Which season of the year would you put a blanket on a horse?

You would put a blanket on a horse in the winter to save him from getting a cold or even dieing. However, if you do not clip your horse, it is better to leave him unblanketed. To tell if your horse is cold enough to blanket him, touch his ears. If the are cold, he is most likely cold. If they are not, he is fine as is. Also look for abnormal behavior. If he is standing listlessly with his head down, something is wrong, and it may be that he is cold.


What happens to a horse that is not blanketed when it is cold?

If a horse is not blanketed when it is cold, it may feel uncomfortable and shiver to maintain body heat. In severe cases, it may experience weight loss, weakened immune system, and be more prone to illnesses such as pneumonia. It is essential to provide adequate shelter and nutrition to keep a horse healthy in cold weather.


What is the difference between a coldblood horse and a warmblood horse?

The difference is that a warmblood is more of an active horse and is built for speed.On the other hand a coldblooded horse is more of a slow work horse or is used for shows. There are 100s of different breeds of horse, but they fall into 3 categories: hot blood, cold blood and warm blood. Note that these are also written as warmblood, coldblood and hotblood. The cold blood are breeds developed in middle an northern Europe, use as farm animals (e.g. pull plow), to pull carts, drag logs and other such heavy work. Their build reflects this with heavy bodies, large muscles and joints, heavy coat for winter. Also, a calm disposition to be easily managed. Hot bloods are breeds from warmer climates, notably the Arabian from the middle-east. They were breed for speed, used for racing and long distance riding. Consequently, they have a lighter and more athletic build, with a more spirited temperament. Warm bloods fall between the two, often the result of crossing a hot breed and a cold breed. Their build is closer to a hot than a cold, but they have the calmer temperament of the cold blood. They are used for equistrian sports (e.g. dressage, show jumping) where a horse needs athletic performance but also needs calm intelligence and trainability.

What is cold shoeing and What is hot shoeing?

Hot Shoeing : The tradition of hot shoeing was borne out of necessity. When hand making horse shoes prior to the machine made shoe era, the hand tools were not as refined as they are today, the old style hoof cutters were difficult to use as they only had one cutting edge which was very narrow, the rasps were also narrow so achieving a flat hoof surface was difficult, thus while hand making the shoe which was still hot from the forge, it was a better option to simply burn it on to get a perfectly married fit to the hoof. Cold Shoeing : Fitting a horseshoe without heating it in a forge and shaping it exactly to the foot. Source : Random. A more precise answer will be provided soon.
