Horse Haircut

Did you know horses need haircuts? Just like you? Well their hair grows too! They grow a thick coat during the winter that needs to be shaved off once it gets warmer out down in Florida.  It's very important to pay attention to your horse between changing seasons.  They can't tell you how they feel so it's up to you to pay special attention to them.  My horse gets real hot and sweaty with long hair and that can't be fun for anyone.  A few times a year I spend time getting rid of that thick coat.  It too me THREE DAYS to get her all clipped into shape.  She doesn't stand still either, she was constantly moving around, twitching, disapproving of the clipping.  Although it's hard, it's worth it.  I can only imagine how much cooler she feels in this hot weather.  There is a technique and you must go against the coat so it all stays one length.
