How To Keep Those White Legs… Actually White In Winter

The winter mud season is upon us, and if you’ve got a grey horse or one with “chrome”, this for sure, is the worst time of year for you. Our condolences.

Maybe you’ve got a mare (or gelding) who isn’t very careful about where they urinate in the stall. Or they’re just a mud monster. Either way, here our some quick hacks on how to keep those legs white, fungus free, and clean in the cold weather.

Dry Shampoo

Dry shampoo for horses does exist, and it will change your life in the cold seasons. Shapley’s Easy Out waterless shampoo is a fan favorite. Or give Lucky Braids Dry Wash a try.

DIY

If you want to get crafty and come up with something homemade, Ellie Woznica from the Heels Down Happy Hour Podcast swears by combining a betadine scrub with the traditional Mane N’ Tail shampoo. “Works like a charm,” she says, on those tough pee stains and white legs.
