Horses and Sunburn
Just like humans, horses are vulnerable to sunburn, especially those with light-colored coats like Appaloosas, Lipizzans, and Pintos. Owners should be aware of the signs of sunburn and take preventive measures, such as using fly masks or sunscreen for their horses. Severe sunburn can cause blistering, hair loss, and even liver damage. Learn how to protect your horse from the sun, treat sunburned skin, and explore options like fly sheets and blankets to keep your equine partner safe and comfortable under the sun.
