[RC] Heat Rash...? - kazevedoHi Ridecampers, I ride in a Toklat wool pad from my english saddle, and a couple times after doing 50 mile rides I've noticed my gelding gets a heat rash the ride is through. I believe it's a heat rash because they're a couple bumps on each side of his backbone that appear about where I sit. They disappear in a day or two. Is this a concern? Would it be a good idea to, say, get a Dixie Midnight no sweat vent pad? Does anyone have ideas for any other pads that might help keep my horse's back cooler? Thanks a bunch, Katie & "Shrimp" ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
