What is the average temperature of a horse?
A clinical thermometer is a must in every rider’s locker. The average temperature of a healthy horse is between 37.5° and 38° Celsius ( 99.5° - 100.4° Fahrenheit) – young foals: 38° - 39° C(100.4°-102.2°F), but can raise to 41° C ( 105.8° F) under strain; however a temperature above 43 ° C (109.4° F) is life threatening. Since the temperature varies slightly among individuals, one should occasionally measure the own horse and write down its average basic temperature. This can be done with a regular thermometer by measuring in the anus. To avoid the thermometer from being sucked into the intestines, you can tape a string to it and attach this string to the horsetail with a cloth pin.

Barefoot Physio saddle pad system
Available in different shapes and colors for all our Barefoot saddle models. Developed for the demands during long rides, for heavier riders, round horses on which every saddle tends to slip or horses with protruding spinous processes. All physio pads are shaped to accomodate the horse’s spine and offer ideal pressure absorption and distribution.
This system offers addtional clearance and lift over the spinous processes of the thoracic vertebrae and consists of 2 components which are pressure absorbing and are connected securely with velcro.
a) Lower part: anatomically cut made of quilted cotton, thinned under the upper thigh for a close leg contact, pressure absorbing foam inserts can be removed through an easy velcro opening. 2/3 gripping sympanova underside will stabilize the saddle even on very round horses – the rear 1/3 is made out of real sheepskin to protect this sensitive area. The sheepskin glides over the horses coat and therefore eliminates potential rubbing under the cantle.
b) top layer: Quilted cotton upper fabric with felt underside, poly fleece inside and foam layer on top (will keep the saddle in place and supplies additional pressure absorption). Velcro straps attach to the saddles D-rings. Machine washable at 30 degrees. 1 pair of 15 mm foam inserts are included with this saddle pad.
• Anatomically cut
• Supplies spinal clearance even for horses with atrophied spines
• Well cushioned, suitable also for heavier riders
• Non-slip
