Winter Spa Day

I'm sitting down with my complimentary issue of Horse Illustrated and came across a lovely article about giving your horse a winter spa day. It includes hot towels, a sponge bath, hosing legs with cold water, getting the easy to forget places when grooming, trace clipping, a portable water heater, turnout blankets, and using a vacuum to groom your horse. It was a rather a nice article. Unfortunately its the feb issue so its not live on their website yet.
