It's funny but I think 30-40's will seem like a genuine heat wave. <br /><br />I used to ride in cold weather too and still do sometimes but this winter I'm just not in the mood, guess I'm getting older and less tolerant of the cold. Then again I have no real goals so the horses don't need to be worked with any specific training. <br /><br />The horses all seem to be coping but they're miserable too. It's always a tricky decision with shoes, some of ours have them and some don't. The horses prone to lameness seem to do better with a little help from the shoes in my opinion. I'd be happy if they could all be barefoot it would be easier to handle and less expensive.Grey Horse Mattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29272013.post-9341422642026977002011-02-10T21:59:11.969-05:002011-02-10T21:59:11.969-05:00No, it's not spring yet but, like you, I was t...No, it's not spring yet but, like you, I was thinking ahead.
