there's been a article today in H&H mag about some research into whether horses enjoy being groomed. I was surprised at the results that so many horses resented being groomed that I started thinking about the various nags we've had and the way I was taught to groom by an old nagsman who was extremely observant around horses.
It's also got me thinking about the 'nuts and bolts' about how we brush.
Now, I know some people over the years have laughed about how fussy I am about the brushes but we've found that different horses like different brushes and different degrees of pressure etc so I do try my best to find out what the horse responds to the best and then use those brushes and that method on that particular horse.
So,
how do you groom?
