Anyone else's horse look like this today?

[Elvis]

I thought Elvis was the kind of horse who didn't like to get his feet dirty let alone the rest of him... Oh how wrong I was!

Anyone else with grubby pony pics?

 

[FlaxenPony05]

Hmph...at least he isn't grey!

 

[texas]

I've just been out to see mine. The brown one was brown (clean) and the grey one was brown (mud)!

 

[Elvis]

Yes I should be grateful he isn't grey!

You mean something a bit like this? Face gives indication of what colour his body should be, this is last winter.

Mine...

 

[Elvis]

Ouch, can't have been fun to get those greys looking sparkling again!

Can't seem to get it on the post but link works I hope! He loves the mud (typically) but the rain soon washed it off

 

[Elvis]

Link works
What a muddy pony!

 

[charlimouse]

Yes! The pictures don't do it justice, in as far as quite how muddy he is!

He is eventing on Sunday. I think tomorrow shall be spent bathing him!

 

[Elvis]

Oh dear, I think someone told him he was going to a party this weekend! They love getting in a state before an important competition! He looks like he has lovely markings under all that mud, is he young?

 

[charlimouse]

Getting mucky (either mud or poo, he's not fussy) is his favourite hobby. He is 6, supposed to be blue and white!

 

[Jericho]

My grey looks the same... Is it too early to clip out and cover in full neck turnouts??!??? Reminds me why I will never ever ever get another grey, they only look clean for 2 hrs after a bath!

 

[MochaDun]

Poured with rain here so now the red earth that's he's had rubbed in to his coat over the last few weeks is leaching out of his coat in pink streaks, (coloured tri-coloured cob normally) most attractive (not)

I thought this too but leaving him to have his fun before the rugs come out

I'm lucky in that I don't have mud as such here, just dirty grass (kinda) but with a pony who's greatest desire is to be a poobald I have invested in shares in Fairy liquid and get through half a bottle at least every time he has a bath!

Tah Dah.....!

 

[Magicmillbrook]

Yes - mucky little fellow

This is what he should look like

 

[Enfys]

I don't get that much mud

We have sand - they roll, they shake, they get clean - love it

When I did keep the horses (white ones) in what could have doubled for a rice paddy (Wales, say no more ) the power hose was my friend

 

[Gasper]

Gasper just wants to be sandy coloured !

 

[Adopter]

Love the fashion for sand coloured!
Great pictures everyone, lovely looking horses and ponies under the mud!

 

[MochaDun]

We had a very wet night...got up to field this morning and spotted tell-tale skid marks and general churning of the ground...so there's mine with thankfully mud dry on his body but legs lovely pinky/brown wet mud still from the obvious charging about so quite a lot of grooming required before I could ride. His field companion? Spotless, just a little bit dirty on his legs where they'd splashed through the muddier bits. How come?! Not fair.com.
