🎡🐴 Getting Your Horse Fair-Ready? Don’t Forget Biosecurity! 🧼🚿

Minnesota’s 80+ county fairs are just around the corner, and that means it’s time for bathing, brushing, and braiding your way to a blue ribbon. Make biosecurity a part of your show prep!

✅ Only bring healthy horses
🚫 Don’t share tack or buckets
🧼 Wash hands before/after caring for horses
🏡 Quarantine returning horses for at least 2 weeks after the fair

📝 Not sure where to start? Print off this Biosecurity Checklist for Exhibitors — perfect to keep in your tack box or tape in your trailer. ⬇

☀️🐴 Hot & Humid Weather: Know the Limits for Your Horse 🐴☀️

Horses can acclimate to hot, humid conditions — but there’s a limit to what they can safely handle.

💡 Air temperature (F) + relative humidity (%) directly affects your horse’s ability to cool down. Before exercising your horse, consider these guidelines:

✅ Less than 130 – Horses cool effectively.
⚠️ 130 to 150 – Cooling ability is reduced. Use caution.
🚫 Over 150 – Cooling is greatly reduced.
❗ Over 180 – Conditions may be fatal if your horse is stressed.

📍Example: 92°F + 69% humidity = 161 — this is a high-risk zone.

These numbers are a helpful guide, but always consider your horse’s unique condition and needs too.
