I had the day off as the nice back man was coming out to see my old girl, so had a short mooch around the woods with my boy, and then finished off by clipping him out.

I now remember why I HATE clipping so much. There is that moment when you are about 2/3 of the way through and you and the horse are totally bored. It was warm this afternoon that I was sweating

I have hair EVERYWHERE! despite my best efforts so will shortly be off for a major soak. Ended up washing down the yard to clear all the hair away

Made a stupid error as I had bought cordless small clippers trimming in the year and got them out to finish off his head. Then found that these clippers take a lot more off than my big ones so ended up having to do his entire head again to avoid a rather hacked look.

I am still coughing up hair and sneezing too. And just think, it will grow back in about 3 weeks time!
 
I did one of mine 2 days ago. Still picking hair off my (washed) bra!!!!

Plus she was a tetchy cowbag. Ended up only doing a trace clip as opposed a blanket clip as we both got so bored.
 
I had to do my daughters hairy pony for the second time this week, did it 2 weeks ago and it had already grown back!!! At least hes only little though so only takes me 20 mins!!!
 
Yes, Manni has had a high chaser clip - he'd been getting very hot, particularly out at autumn hunting. Luckily he is really good and just stands and nods off while the clippers are going over him!
 
Well I move back to my old yard 2weeks tomorrow so will do it then hopefully.
My current yard has no electricity and my clippers are not cordless, she needs a bit off though as she is getting rather sweaty
 
2nd clip already :eek: Hairy Pony :p x


Yer hairy welsh pony!!;) She does do loads with him too, she rides most evenings for 45- 1hr and often till gone 6 and he just gets so sweaty so its easier to take the hair off as hes so small and very good. Although i prob wouldnt have got him done twice if i didnt do it myself and had to pay for it!! hehe:D
 
Yep, did it on Tuesday. First time clipping in about 10 years!
