Good hydration is paramount to good health. We strive to ensure our horses drink readily by managing buckets, hoses, temperature and more. Even when our routine at the barn seems to work well, things happen and when something changes, hydration can suffer. Horses may not drink well if stressed during travel or when they arrive at their new destination to compete and their performance depends on being well hydrated.
Weather changes can also affect how much horses drink. Like us, they tend to drink more in hot summer weather and less in cold winter weather for a variety of reasons but adequate hydration is vital all year-round.
Remember that you can lead a horse to water and when electrolytes work properly, the horse will drink to stay well hydrated.
Grand Prix jumper Jenni McAllister and 3x Longines FEI Show Jumping World Cup Finalist uses Equiwinner not just for everyday good hydration but to take the guesswork out of the more challenging situations. She now manages her horse hydration with more confidence.
Take a look at how she does it in this video.
With Equiwinner, you'll be able to make your own whatever, wherever and whenever horse plans with confidence too.
This is a good reason always to have an extra box of patches around, to use them individually during transport, or in any stressful situation. An individual patch placed on your horse will keep the electrolytes working properly to help with stress. Single-use patches should not replace your horse's regular 10-day treatments since there is no long term lasting effect from individual patches. Remember, an individual patch is only good for 24 hours. If you’re traveling for 2 days, use a new patch each day, just like during a 10-day treatment.
