Cozy Horse Course

Feeding & Blanketing for Winter Wellness

How do I keep my horse warm and prevent colic in winter?

This cozy two-part course combines Feeding for Warmth and Blanketing 101 — created for everyday equine enthusiasts who want to feel confident about winter care choices. Both topics are delivered in a way that’s easy to digest for anyone, blending science, experience, and a heart for horse wellness.

I have a confession: I used to think colic in winter was inevitable — until I set out to know and do better for my own horses. And honestly? I once felt the same way about blanketing. I was completely against it before learning how to make educated, individualized choices that support comfort without compromising natural function.

Now, I’m sharing what I’ve learned — from research to real-life barn experience — so you can better understand your horse’s needs inside and out.

In this two-part Cozy Horse Course, you’ll learn:
- How diet influences warmth, digestion, and colic risk
- Smart blanketing strategies that respect your horse’s biology
- Simple, practical ways to keep your horse healthy and comfortable through the cold months

Enjoy a combination of education and experience that will leave you feeling informed, empowered, and ready to support your horse’s whole-body wellness this winter.

  • Feeding for Warmth — 40 min

  • Blanketing 101 — 50 min
