This may seem like a wierd question, but I have a team of draft horses. For those who don't know, a lot of drafts are kind of known as sweaters. If I have mine hooked up and say pulling a wagon, not for into the ride they are sweating like crazy. Especially one will pretty much become soaked. They are not in shape yet for the year, but even in shape they sweat. My question to anyone who does a lot of riding, or maybe showing horses is would it hurt anything to hose them down after using them? I have a well so the water gets kinda chilly. Not freezing or anything, but fairly cool. The idea behind the question is that my harness is what they call bio-thane, which is sort of a patent leather, which can be wet and not hurt anything. I am thinking I can wash the harness, and cool the horses at the same time. But I don't know for sure if the cool water would be hard on the horses. They are not really super hot and winded, just sweating. Any thoughts? Thanks - Bob
