I have a grey pony that spends most of the winter in the mud, why? I don't know as he has a lovely rug to wear outside. A perfectly manacured stable to come into every night with a nice deep bed, sweet smelling haylage, carrots and chaff. Said pony, Sam ( which stands for Soggy And Muddy) has a coat like a polar bear, thick and fluffy. He is a cantankerous g*t who will not have the clippers near him unless drugged and trussed up like a chicken. Not worth it at the moment as his work load is light.

Soggy and muddy is also very ticklish and often objects to the harsh objects needed to remove such clay sods from his coat. So, can anybody recommend a decent mud buster that can do the job with out evoking soggy and muddy to nip at one's arm, leg or any other part of one's body that happens to be in the line of fire when brushing is required to turn this equine back into the sparkling chap I would like him to be!

You could have just written Horsk's life story! I'm considering investing in a pressure washer for him!
 
I too would like to know how to make my white and grey look a little less like a mud monster! Blue hates having the mud removed from his belly and I won't even consider the clippers as I know it won't be an easy thing to do! He too is a furry bear who doesn't need rugging, and when he's in his stable he refuses to eat hay as all he wants is to go back outside. I think my boy is going to look like a yettie until the warmer weather arrives!
 
I think a hose pipe. I know a horse who can only be cleaned with a hose pipe. No one wants to go near him with a brush. Unfortunately he is a hunter so only needs to be clean when its freezing! Foolish minanimal! :mad:
