Does the Shire need particular cures?
Not for sure! They are only bigger horses. They are more sensitive to the high temperature that to the rigid temperatures (from here the term “of cold blood”). They need shade in the summer time, but they adjust easily to a new surrounding like the greater part of the horses. To hold the draft-horses in intensive stables (without a real movement or job) is limiting their characteristics also because the movement helps their digestive phase, rather long.
