How does a Clydesdale do in hot, jungle climate?
I am in love with the Clydesdale breed and would like to keep one at the stable in Thailand. However, due to the hot weather (35-40 Celsius or 95-104 Farenheit) and humid climate in Thailand, I am not sure if this furry draft horse, originated from freezing weather in Scotland, will be comfortable. I can get the air-conditioner room for him if it’s too hot. But there can be other problems in riding such as puffing…which happened to my Thoroughbred before.What I am more concern is the skin disease and etc.
I’d appreciate any suggestions/comments. So I know if I should continue planning to buy a Clydesdale, or look for other horses that suits Thailand weather better.
Thank you very much.
As long as you take care of him and treat skin conditions and anything he may develop, it should be fine. Horses adapt… people keep Arabs in freezing climates all the time. They do just fine as long as you take care of them and let them develop a proper coat.
In the heat, the Clydesdale should have a much more thin and sleek coat from the adaptation. If you just allow him to adjust and take care of him, things should be fine.
All mammals can adapt… I live in a (moderately) warm climate, at least in the summer time. I have a Siberian Husky, with a thick fur coat. She sheds out in the summer, and as long as I provide proper care she does just fine, because she adapts.
Now if this were a lizard or something cold blooded and unable to adapt to varying climates, and you were trying to remove it from its regular climate, you would have problems. But with mammals you should be just fine.
