Thank you to our fab team of staff and loaners working hard in the heat yesterday to keep the horses comfortable 🥵
Did you know…

⭐️it takes at least 2-3 weeks for horses to start acclimatising to higher temperatures, so mini heat waves pose a higher risk!
⭐️horses have high electrolyte concentration in their sweat so loss of minerals is rapid when sweating and increases risk of dehydration
⭐️Older, heavier, darker horses, and those with thicker coats, are all at higher risk in the heat
⭐️continuous application of cold water ie hosing is the best way to cool a horse down (don’t waste time using the sweat scraper!)

One cancellation space available on the 10am beginner to intermediate level group lesson tomorrow (Wednesday) - 45 minutes, max 4 riders and £25 🦄 message or email to book!

⭐️DAY CAMP 22nd August⭐️ We are super excited that not only do we have the lovely Catherine from Baileys Horse Feeds visiting the yard to put the ponies on the weigh bridge and help us with our condition scoring and ration planning, we also have our brilliant Equine Dental Technician Lili Harvey coming to do teeth for Victory and Sparkles! This will be so interesting to see the difference in the dentition between a young and aged pony. This is as well as the included TWO lessons and stable management training from our qualified staff. Spaces are now VERY limited so get booked in asap!

Ned enjoying his hose off and electrolyte mash away from the hot sun this afternoon 🥵 lots of horses have additional requirements in extremes of weather (particularly heat waves that they do not have time to adjust to) - providing shelter either in cool stables or under shade in trees, lots of hosing off, moving lessons to the shady indoor arena or hacking, and providing extra fluids and electrolytes are just some of the ways we adapt the care of the ponies during this weather 🦄☀️
