Dont mean to state the obvious but its a tad warm. My horse is black. He is wearing a full neck white cotton fly sheet and has a bit of shade in his fied which he does use (sometimes). If the stables were cooler and better ventilated I would have him in whilst its this hot (that has been normal routine when i had my own yard and better ventilated stables). To help him cool down a little, is is ok to wet his rug and put it on him to evaporate. I have heard this is bad and makes them hotter, but as physics/biology arent my strong point, i cant see why it would be bad.
Does anyone else wet their fly sheet and put it on horse wet to help them cool dow a little ??
