Hey hotties, if you’re also feeling like you’ve been living in a Johnny Cash music video going down, down, down in a burning ring of fire, this is the episode for you. I dive into the week of hundred degree heat we’ve been spit-roasting and caramelizing in down here in the southern United States, and the challenges of keeping horses cool in it. I also do you all the favor of explaining how I helped Azula realize that the water horse is in fact not a translucent, spitting, slithery worm demon out to end her, but instead a worthy ally, dare I say, friend. And now she can’t get enough of it! That’s enough caption for now, I do literally have to run to go check on the horses and hose off the hot ones! Thanks for listening!

Here are some articles about heat stress + helping horses stay cool during these brutal summer temperatures:
“There was no cooling effect of scraping following rapid cold-water application,” he said, which indicates heat dissipation by conduction is greater than that of sweat evaporation.
Specifically, the horses’ body temperatures dropped and continued to drop 10 seconds after water application alone. When the team scraped the water from the horses’ bodies, their temperatures increased immediately.” Hosing Hot Horses Post-Exercise: Scrape Off Water or Reapply? - thehorse.com/1101202/hosing-h...

this was perfect timing! Going to try this with my rescue pony

For super humid climates it could insulate since the air around is so wet, Georgia, but not enough to do harm

Hey Jill! Could you potentially link the water filter for the shower/ chlorine that you got and is working well?! I’ve been looking for one but there are so many mixed reviews! I know you’re busy so no worries if you can’t!💛💛

I need help training my boy to not pull up when I get to his neck / face. He’s fine with the body but when I try to wash his mane he pulls up.

Hey Jill! I was wondering if you could do an episode on girthy horses? My lease mare is very girthy, let me explain the situation. She has sweet itch, primarily on her stomach, chest, crest, and small parts near her dock/top of the tail. Her old owners didn't care, they didn't treat it nor pay any attention to it so they would just ignore her pain as they put the saddle and girth on. Now that my barn has rescued her, she still expects pain when we try and do up the girth and will swing around and nip. It's not a bite, she has never come in contact with anyone but I wish I could make the situation better for her. She is generally a super sweet mare and I hate to see her stressing over cruel human choices. She no longer gets sweet itch on her stomach and we have had her vetted, it's just a matter of teaching her it won't hurt anymore. Any training advice?
