Welcome to the world of greys.... Piccies??

I use Wahl purple shampoo for greys which is the only thing imo which makes tails nice and white again! Aside from that greys love to be bog monsters so good luck. Some people truss them up in lycra hoods and rugs all the time but I just practice my brushing. You will be an expert groomer soon

Sorry no help in getting a grey clean/keeping clean but wanted to say I hope you have fun with him

I prefer darker horses so you can hide the mud/wee/poo stains easier

OP Wash them as soon as they get them

Congrats on finding the pony.

On the products side - the thing I couldn't do without (for my mostly-white coloured) is Cowboy Magic Greenspot Remover. It's a bit pricey, but works brilliantly and lasts for ages.

Another vote for Cowboy Magic. Ours is also a muck magnet - had been rolling in poo in the fieldshelter yesterday.
Someone on here gave a tip about steradent for tails, and that works well too.

Enjoy!!

For everyday bathing you cant beat fairy liquid lemon! then a second wash with purple shampoo gives them that extra dazzle!
