Dirty Pony!!

[mallt]

It took me over an hour to get my horse clean before I could ride her... rubber curry comb to get the mud off, stiff brush to get the worst of the dust off & then a soft brush to get the dust out of her actual coat... here are some before & after pictures take with my phone:

But it was well worth the effort as I had an AWESOME ride... more on that later!

what was she doing to get so dirty?

Lying down or rolling in the mud in the corral... what with the wet weather we've been having it's pretty much a mud pit out there! The mud/dust keeps the flies & mozzies away!

She's beautiful. How tall is she?

Thanks :)
She's 15.2hh... she's my Goldilocks horse... not too tall & not too small, she's just right! :D

I swear her life goal is to become a brown horse!

Dirty fat pony! Did she go back out and roll around straight away again? That's what Rupert does EVERY time! Glad you had a good ride - you been using your jumps?

Not in the 5-10 mins I was outside... but she was doing the ground sniffing thing!
