    This is the second time this week I’ve ever heard this phrase in my entire life. I feel like I know what it means but I’m afraid to ask

      It’s a horse riding addage, a horse ridden hard gets dirty and messy, put away wet means it doesn’t get cleaned. Basically a dirty worn old looking horse.

        I think it’s more the riding gear than the horse. You’ll get a rotten saddle pretty quick when the leather gets waterlogged and not taken care of.

          You can Google it you know! It’s about the horse. That’s how I found out, it’s amazing the things you don’t need an opinion on when factual information is at our fingertips.
