You can give his feathers a trim, I said

[Auslander]

Alf is a bit common - I keep him trimmed up so that his hairy little secret isn't too obvious. I clipped him a month ago, and have been meaning to run the clippers down the back of his legs to remove the evidence of his carthorse genes, but haven't got round to it.
This weekend, one of my liveries fancied a bit of clipping, so I handed him over, and wandered off to make a coffee.

I came back to this. I laughed so much that I was almost sick...



It's even funnier if you zoom in on this pic...



Needless to say, I shall be clipping his legs out before we are seen in public!

 

[JFTDWS]

Still laughing

 

[MotherOfChickens]

OMG-he needs some leg warmers!

 

[tallyho!]

 

[Auslander]

OMG-he needs some leg warmers!

He's wearing PE leg wraps - he's far too bald for bare legs!

 

[Velcrobum]

Must admit I burst out laughing when I saw that!! Just ride him out in polo bandages until the hariness grows back no one will know...............

Except every one who has seen the pictures

 

[madamebonnie]

Omg that is just too funny

 

[DressageCob]

bless 😄

I'm so glad I clip both of mine out fully. It prevents this sort of mistake, as funny as it is!!

 

[Alibear]

Arggh, well done for seeing the funny side

 

[oldie48]

Love this, it really made me laugh! It reminded me of a rather hairy dark haired friend who only ever shaved her lower legs which was fine until she wore shorts! I think brightly coloured bandages are the way to go.

 

[Nicnac]

OMG!

 

[Denbob]

HAHAHAHA oh nooooooooo!

 

[Annagain]

Is he wearing fluffy plus fours?

 

[Rumtytum]

Love the evidence scattered around Alf’s hooves

 

[Darbs]

He looks like a pirate with one wooden leg!

 

[jj_87]

i need a rolling on the floor crying emoji!

 

[Annagain]

On the plus side, he does have an attractive fetlock.

 

[Pippity]

She can come and do my wannabe carthorse! (If she can get the clippers near her legs.)

 

[Auslander]

He does have rather a good set of clean legs for an old crock! The "do" does make his feet look particularly huge though!

I still can't look at him without laughing, which is beginning to annoy him. I've got three sets of clippers and trimmers on charge tonight - might try trimmers with a comb, and see if I can make him look respectable without taking the whole lot off!

He looks like a fancy breed of chicken to me!

 

[ycbm]

He looks just like the boys in the Matthew Bourne version of Swan Lake 😂. A new career?

He is already quite the ballet boy!
I also think he also looks a bit like Mr Tumnus!

 

[HEM]

oh noooo! :') I knew this was going to be a funny one from the title!

 

[Mrs B]

No ... *peers at photo* ... nope. Can't see anytime wrong with that ...

 

[Cortez]

That is hilarious! He looks like a duck.

 

[ester]

Also still chuckling, carthorse feet, skinny legs

 

[Merrymoles]

Love it and love the fact that your sense of humour wins out! I can think of many people who would have had a major flounce at that!

I can also offer a hairy cob who really needs his legs off if your livery is still keen to do some more - she will need nerves of steel and quick reactions though - I can only ever succeed when he's sedated for his teeth!

 

[Rowreach]

He looks like Mr Tumnus

 

[Morag4]

I just spat tea all over my ipad! 😂😂

 

[mandyroberts]

Having a good giggle...….

You know the difference between a bad haircut and a good haircut?



A fortnight!
