Under Armour® Review for Horse Enthusiasts

December 30, 2010 by Stephanie Krahl

Under Armour
Anyone who spends time with horses faces the challenge of staying warm in the winter months and cool in the summer.  Being from Texas, all I have to do is wait 30 minutes and the weather will change, sometimes from one extreme to the next.

Do you struggle with the decision of what to wear when you want to spend time with your horse, especially in cold weather?  I don’t know about you, but I’ve tried many different brands of clothing and I’ve finally settled on one brand that consistently lives up to what it promises.

To Blanket Your Horse or Not to Blanket … That Is the Question

December 16, 2010 by Stephanie Krahl

Horse Blanketing

A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong, gives it a superficial appearance of being right.”  ~ Thomas Paine (Introduction to Common Sense 1776)

Could Drastic Changes in Barometric Pressure Affect Your Horse?

December 29, 2009 by Stephanie Krahl

Post image for Could Drastic Changes in Barometric Pressure Affect Your Horse?
During certain times of the year, dramatic weather changes can occur quickly.  One day it’s beautiful, 71 degrees and sunny, and the next day there’s a drastic 40 degree drop in the temperature.

That happened here in Texas over Christmas in 2009.  A drastic drop in the barometric pressure started to occur the day before Christmas Eve.  On Christmas Eve day a blizzard blew in bringing a heavy snow/rain and sleet mix with 45 mph winds.  For a native Texan, it was miserable.

Drastic weather changes can cause problems for both your horse and you.  When the barometer drops dramatically prior to a big storm, some horses, as well as people, can experience ill effects.
