I can forgive the chop just to hear the pure joy you have for him already. 😁

His rear is so cute.

It’ll be less cute if he does it under saddle as he looks very balanced with it haha.

He just cracks me up. He’s got a proper flicky toes prancy trot and the flick of his head he does is hilarious. Like he’s going “loooooook I’m a cute little babyyyy”.

I am THRILLED with him beyond belief he is very very different to Boggle but absolutely oozing with character. Dare I say it he may be a little more co operative than baby bog lol.

He’s also totally unspooky and brave. Came over to investigate when I’m chucking stuff in the skip (bog had already run away from it). Wanted to sniff the big dumpster on his walk. No spook at the left out bins. He just wants to investigate most things but he doesn’t fire up like a lunatic like Bog who loved any excuse for a party.

I know I know the mane needs some help and I will do it this weekend! Any suggestions lol? I don’t want to pull it but don’t want it to be a totally blunt cut. I just couldn’t stand the hair. Really and truly I hate long manes or hair on horses anywhere, it’s taken me a lot of willpower to let Bog keep his disgusting hairy feet for winter at 8500 feet 🤣

Once he’s tidied up he will look farrrr better and he already looks much better IMO without the mane!

Even how he rears is cute 🤣🤣🤣 I’ve genuinely never met a pony that is as cute as him haha.

It will look better if the bottom edge is feathered. This video shows better than I can explain:

This basically. I think she's done an awful job of it in the video, but the method is what I do - though often I just cut straight along the mane initially as you have, then go along the bottom feathering with the scissors at 11 o'clock position until I'm happy with it (or get bored, whichever happens first!).

I never pull, and would never touch a rake again - too many sticky up bits grow through, even when you only use it underneath! 😂

scissors. Brush it over to the other side and then trim close to the neck to get the thickness right down. Then flip it back to the right side, trim it to the right length then scissor it with the scissors at an angle and just keep doing that until you get a neat, but not blunt line.

edited as you said its not thick, so skip that bit
 
Yes, she was a funny one. Not a spin and feck off in the opposite direction like Fin, but she had a wee bit of wariness about her. The positives are that she doesn't seem interested in sticking her feet into fences and hay feeders, but it did demand confidence and patience from her trainer (aka, me). That was fine, but I think it could have been messy with a nervous owner. All swings and roundabouts.
