Hi everyone!
I've had my Cob X for nearly a week now, and I'm really struggling to get the caked-on mud off of his legs and belly. This mud has obviously built up over a long time, as it's rock solid.
I've tried brushing it off (doesn't budge), washing it off (doesn't budge), and have just started trying to oil it off. Some of the larger clumps under his girth area had to be cut off, but these bits are smaller and closer to the skin.
It seems to be very sore for him, as when I try to brush it off he flinches a lot.
I'm not wanting to clip him, so that would be a very very very last resort.
Does anyone have any suggestions/ideas?
Thanks so much in advance!
Here's what I'm dealing with:
