How often do you rinse or bathe your horse? We posed this question to our readers in last week’s online poll. More than 1,190 people responded and we’ve tallied the results!

Of the 1,198 respondents, 790 (66%) said they rinse their horse after every ride during the warm months. Another 75 individuals (6%) said they only rinse or bathe their horse before shows and clinics, while 70 respondents (6%) said they rinse or bathe their horse once a month. An additional 62 respondents (5%) said they rinse or bathe their horse weekly, while 58 respondents (5%) rinse or bathe their horses annually. Just 12 individuals (1%) said they only wash their horse’s tail, and the remaining 131 individuals (11%) said they rarely or never rinse or bathe their horse.

Additionally, more than 100 people left comments about rinsing or bathing their horse:
