Does My Horse Really Need Shade?
Yes! Horses are actually sensitive animals that are naturally designed to handle cold better than they can heat. Horses can suffer from heat stroke just as humans can. If you see a horse that is ‘panting’ in the sun, get him to a cool area, hose them down and get them under fans right away! Better yet… make sure they have a shaded area so they don’t over heat in the first place! Our Shade Kits are easy to put together and your horse will love the Cool difference!

"I can't believe how wonderful and effective my 1 horse unit is. Our temps this summer are 110 degrees and Higher! When I step into my horse's shade, it is Much Cooler--- Notably Cooler! My little Morgan refuses to leave it until I take her into her stall (with fans) at night. She Loves IT. I have put her water and food there and the water stays Cool and doesn't get hot (and green) as it did before. I am thrilled, my horse is happy--- Highly recommend to anyone wanting shade for their horses! Super easy to put together (my hubby did in about 2 hours using only a wrench).
