I have been ridng my mare Mystie out on the trails these past few days and with her new thick winter coat, she is coming home even from a short trip drenched in sweat.

So after yesterdays hour ride I hosed her off and gave her a good rinse and let her dry then got out the clippers ;) Mystie got a nice clip job, not a full body but just a partial clip where she sweats the most, to help keep her cool during work outs and trail rides. It will also speed up cool down time so she is not sitting around in a wet thick winter coat so long. No worries that she will catch a chill on cold winter nights, she does have a blanket to wear, to make up for her natural blanket that was removed :)
