In this episode of my podcast, I’ll talk about tricks of the trade I’ve learned throughout my career, about horse grooming and how to get a “bloom” on your horse. I’ll specifically—and separately—address the mane & tail, haircoat, face, and legs. We’ll talk about best practices for keeping your horse comfortable in the hot summer months and glowing with health year-round.

 

Plus, in the What the Hay? Q&A segment at the end of this show, I’ll answer questions from listeners about a horse that’s been bullied and ostracized from the herd, an older mare that won’t stand still for mounting, and a question from "downunder" about saddle fit on a barrel-shaped draft pony.
