1. Curry your horse with a rubber curry to remove caked on dirt.
Begin
at top of neck continuing down to chest.
Do
withers, shoulder, forearm.
Then
the back, side, barrel, croup and butt.
So
the other side in the same order. NEVER CURRY THE LOWER LEGS.
2. Next, brush your horse in the same sequence.
Brush
with the grain of the hair.
Do
lower legs, too.
3. Pick out the hooves.
4. Untangle the mane and tail by brushing or combing from the ends,
working your way to the base. Use your fingers to undo stubborn tangles.
5. Bathe your horse in an area with a tree, post or other object to
tie him to. Be sure you aren't in an area that will turn to mud! Grass, gravel,
a driveway or rubber mat is good.
