Dear god have the ever!! Every day, I get enough fur from each horse to make several cat sized balls!! It's driving me nuts! BUT I have found a short cut that is saving my arms! HOSE THEM OFF!! Working wonders! Gettting more and more off every single day!

my pussywillows since have flowered and collected bees.
I have a horse that is about smooth. And two minis that could be brushed as a full time job.

My mare is just about finished shedding. My mini is still shedding, but this is the first year he has shed out like a normal horse. When I rescued him he had hair that was nearly 6 inches long and he was skin and bones underneath all of it! I had to clip him the first spring to see how much weight he had gained. The following year he got really thick again and began shedding in patches so I clipped him again. This winter's coat was just of normal mini thickness and he's shedding out nice and evenly all over like a healthy little mini, so I'm not clipping him this year, just brushing and currying!

Minis shed like CRAZY, their little fuzz balls. When i get done brushing theres piles. I wait till the weather gets warm enough and clip them, it makes grooming more enjoyable.:)
