Washing the Horses

The last few weeks after I ride,  I have been washing the horses. The first week I washed Fancy.  You always have to rinse the horse really well. The horses can have skin problems if you leave the soap on the horse. 

The next week I washed Checkers. Right after I washed her and let her out in the field, she rolled in the dirt!

1. Gather all the supplies.

2. Get the horse all wet.

3. Use the soap and the scrubber to wash the body.

4. Rinse really well.

5. Wash the mane with shampoo and then use conditioner.

This week we had a new horse at the barn and his name is Step. I got to ride him and I loved him! Maybe another week, I can wash Step.
