My horse has super long and mane which makes me think that he might be part Haflinger. But on show days when he competes in English flat classes he needs a running braid but it falls out no matter what so through my own testing I found a simple solution. You just buy regular spray gel from the hair section of your supermarket or wherever and you spray it onto your horse’s dampened mane and then do a long running braid. Your horse’s mane will look ahh-mazing and it won’t be crunchy and fake that’s the magic of good ole spray gel!

I take a wet rag and dampen my brushes so that dirt and dander stick to them instead of just getting spread around.

Phantom loves to roll in mud every chance he gets. after he gets a bath and dries off as soon as he is let go he rolls just to get dirt him. He usually gets groomed about 2 hours a day it keeps his mane and tail tangle free. Also i use bleach on his hooves it kill all bacteria and hardens his hooves and gives it a shine. and of course using show sheen is awesome!

Usually riding a flea-bitten grey who loves to roll in mud the night before we ride, every grooming session is a workout. The mud has dried long before, so I pull out my handy-dandy hand curry! Simple, yet wildly effective. If the mud is real bad, and it’s nice out, try getting the mud area wet before scrubbing.

Miracle Groom. I currently live in Minnesota, so in the winter giving a bath to get out poop stains isn’t always an option. This stuff works great as a spot treatment and seems to get the whites whiter when I use it on the brown and white Paint schoolie. Just a couple of squirts on the dirty spots and then you work it out with a damp cloth/rag. Poof! Poop-stain free!

The key to a clean horse, in my opinion, is patients. Plain ahead so you’ve got the time to clean your four-legged-friend! 🙂

Mustangs = dirty horses. I often find that sense my nails grow long, strong, and quick that sometimes they are more equipped to do the job of getting the mud the brush does not.
