I've owned this horse for seven years and I still get completely caught off-guard by his ability to sprout a significant winter coat overnight. One night in the 50's this week and POOF he explodes.
Of course 'significant' is relative. Connor's full winter coat looks like this (if I let it grow out, which I do NOT do anymore!):

| Yakity Yak! Too bad we didn't get anything for scale in this photo, each one of these belly hairs was 3-ish inches long. |
For comparison, the below photo was taken two weeks ago today. He is just racing right into winter.
All the reminders that I'm about a month away from clipping ðŸ˜

I’m not looking forward to winter this year and I’m really hoping that it takes its time getting here! I feel like we’ve had a short, hot summer so I’m really hoping we have a lengthy fall!
My young mare is the same way! She literally changed color within a week into her darker winter coat. I am so sad summer is gone. :-(
My horses are already shedding out their summer coats. It's really depressing. They're old and retired so we don't clip. But maybe I should! ha!
Tristan does the same thing! While he was in the hospital I groomed him every hour or so and every single time I got summer hair out. The vet tech was amazed that he had so much winter coat already. I swear it happened overnight.
Damn so floofy!
