While some horses seem happy standing in the rain, it’s vital to offer them the option to escape the elements when they choose. Horses, like people, have different tolerances to weather conditions. Without a shelter, horses are exposed to heat, cold, and rain, which can lead to serious health issues like heatstroke, respiratory problems, or skin conditions. A proper shelter helps horses regulate their body temperature and reduces the risk of stress or illness from prolonged exposure.

Shelters also protect horses from sunburn or heat stress during hot summer months and offer a place to retreat from heavy rains and strong winds. Even if your horse is happy outside in light rain or cooler temperatures, having access to a shelter allows them to stay dry and comfortable when they need to.
