Horse Grooming

Use a good-quality shampoo followed by a mane-and-tail conditioner.

Make sure your horse is in its halter and tied up near a water hose. Also make sure you have a big, soft sponge and gentle shampoo if you want a more thorough wash. Use a hose with an adjustable nozzle and gentle spray of water. Start at your horse's hooves and work your way up his legs making sure you wash his body from the belly up. Hose your horse's neck, including under the mane, and continue down the neck to the tail. Pull the horse's tail away and wash underneath. Do not put shampoo on the horse's face. Rinse entire horse with a gentle spray. Let the horse dry thoroughly and then apply fly repellant.

Washing Your Horse Tip

Never use warm water to wash a horse's muddy legs. This can open up their pores and allow an infection. Wait till the mud is dry then brush it off or use cold water only.
