Does anyone manage to keep their horses exercised but not clipped throughout the winter? If so, how do you manage and what do you do?
I guess the main problem is the sweating/chill factor of putting a horse back outside when sweaty.
If they are cool but still wet from sweat...are they okay to go out with a rug on? Just thinking what is best for my horse who really gets arsy in bad weather despite being rugged...I am concerned as to the effect clipping him will have...he could be unmanageable (temperament wise)...which I don't want and once the hair is gone it is too late...
