Episode 21: Beat the Heat Part 1: Sweating & Anhidrosis
Sweating is one of the most important ways horses regulate body temperature, but not every horse handles summer heat the same way. In this episode of Horse HealthCast, we take a closer look at how sweating supports cooling, why some horses struggle in hot and humid conditions, and what owners should know about anhidrosis. From turnout schedules and cooling techniques to hydration and nutritional support, we discuss practical ways to help horses stay comfortable throughout the hottest months of the year.
