She didn’t stay out for long because she’s old, but she enjoyed trotting in the snow and looking around at everything.

      horses get winter fur. it’s common to have -30C (-22F) in the winter in my country, and people still have them walk outdoors, they don’t mind.

      Yeah. Horses can tolerate pretty cold temps, especially if they have blankets on. I don’t do anything with the horses below that, though. Some people work with horses at temps as low as 25F, but that’stoo cold for that imo.
