Good post Storm Cadet. I didnt even think about the possibility of a horse not sweating when they are suppose to. And one would come to the conclusion that a horse should sweat when they are on a track that is 100 degrees. It is only natural. And if they do not sweat, then they have to be out of fluids. There is no other reason for them to sweat.

I am more on an expert on the human body and not the equine body. And it is always the case of a person not getting enough fluids in them when they come to see me and state that they do not sweat. "They" think it is because they are in good shape. I tell them NOOOOOO!!!!! You should sweat more when you work out because you have to get your body hydrated and more importantly oxidized.
