Breathing Easy: Supporting Respiratory Health in Horses
Healthy lungs fuel stamina. Protect them daily with smart barn choices, hydration, and recovery support.
As the air turns crisp and the leaves start to crunch under hoof, your horse’s daily routine needs a tune‑up. Fall care isn’t about gimmicks—it’s about smart preparation, steady habits, and products you can trust.
Temperature swings, damp mornings, and shifting workloads put unique strain on your horse. Joints can stiffen, coats begin to change, and recovery routines become more important than ever. Fall is when small adjustments can mean the difference between smooth transitions and setbacks.
Cold mornings mean stiff muscles. Add a few extra minutes of hand walking or slow trot poles before asking for full effort. This helps circulation and reduces risk of strain.
Cooling down takes longer in fluctuating temperatures. After every ride, extend hand walking and consider rinsing with cool water if your horse sweats. Following that, apply a sensation‑free liniment like the Draw It Out® 16oz Gel to legs and key muscle groups to support recovery without burn or tingle.
As coats grow in, skin can become flaky or irritated. Weekly deep cleaning with ShowBarn Secret® SuperClean keeps coats healthy, while ShowBarn Secret® Detangler & Shine reduces breakage and keeps manes and tails smooth under blankets.
