Here are some great winter horse grooming tips our fans have submitted:

• Invest in a blanket with a neck. This will help keep your horse warm – and his mane from becoming extra tangled
• Spray ShowSheen® Hair Polish or Santa Fe Coat™ Conditioner on your horse's coat before putting on his blanket. Users love how this reduces static, and helps prevent blanket rubs in the winter
• Just before your horse comes in from the cold, put a few towels in the dryer. A rub-down with the hot towels is a nice treat for your horse when he comes into the barn, plus it will help remove dirt from his coat
• For quick-touch ups in between baths, a dry shampoo like Miracle Groom® will clean and condition without water
• Let your horse roll in fresh snow - it's like a free grooming
