Which blanket should I use today?
Just above freezing at night, 15 degrees and sunny during the day. And one blanket is supposed to cover both.
If you choose the thin one, it might be too cold at night. If you choose the thicker one, your horse will sweat during the day. So you decide based on your gut feeling—and usually go with the warmer one.
With this, you won't have to guess anymore.
- Blanket Thermometershows you just how warm it really is under the blanket.
- Rug Guidetells you which blanket is right for the weather and your horse.
- Immune ActiveTo provide nutritional support for the body's natural defenses, from the inside.
It's all included in the "Deckenzeit" bundle. The thermometer and guide are included for free.
Immune Active
The Blanket Paradox: Most horses don't get cold too often; they sweat too often
Why is measuring so much more reliable than relying on gut instinct? Because when temperatures range between 5 and 15 °C—as they do now in the fall—we bundle up based on how cold we feel. And your horse perceives the cold very differently than you do.
Put on a jacket, and maybe a scarf, too.
Relaxed in his comfort zone.
Depending on the source, a horse's comfort zone ranges from approximately 0 or 5 to 25 °C (e.g., D. Marlin).
What happens if the blanket doesn't fit?
Covered too warmly
- The horse sweats under theblanket, especially when the sun comes out at noon.
- The fur and skin getdamp—hardly anything dries under the blanket
- The blanket comes off, or it getschilly in the evening—cold air meets wet fur
- The horse cools down quickly—moisture draws heat away from the body, and a damp coat provides almost no insulation
Not enough supplies
- Clipped and older horses, in particular,feel the cold—they lack the natural protection of their coat or the necessary reserves
- The body mustgenerate heat on its ownand needs additional energy to do so
- Cold, wet days are especiallychallenging—wind and moisture quickly rob the body of heat
Three modules, one bundle
Measure, decide, nourish: This turns guesswork into a clear decision, and your horse is well nourished from the inside out.
Ceiling Thermometer
Just slip it under the blanket and read the temperature. That way, you can check for yourself at any time just how warm it really is under the blanket.
Ceiling Guide
Based on the measurement, the guide shows you whether the blanket is suitable for the weather and your horse, and which one to use instead if necessary—even for clipped horses.
Immune Active
Add it to the feed every day to provide nutritional support for the body's natural defenses. And even if the blanket doesn't fit right, your horse will still be well-nourished from the inside.

Frequently Asked Questions
My horse has a winter coat. Does it even need a blanket?
Not necessarily. Many unshorn horses with thick winter coats do just fine without one. The situation is different for shorn or older horses. A guide and a thermometer will help you decide what’s best for your horse instead of relying on a rule of thumb.
I'm not at the stable every day myself. Will this still help me?
Yes. With the measured value and the ceiling guide, you have a clear basis for your decision instead of relying on guesswork or tips from the stable.
Isn't it enough to feel it with your hand?
Your hand is a good first check. But it only gives you a momentary sense of things, and your hand feels things differently than your horse does. The thermometer gives you a specific reading.
What if my horse won't eat it?
Then the 30-day " Taste Guarantee " policy kicks in, and you'll get your money back.
