How to Bathe Your Horse : How to Shampoo a Horse Body

[EquestrianMiNd]

Baby shampoo works really well on horses , and is ALOT cheaper

[Misshorsegirl99]

They make horse shampoo but a lot of people tend to just use mild human shampoo. Either way works fine.

[brennamelnyk]

I want that horse!!! she's just too BEAUTIFUL and WELL BROKE!!!! :D

[HAMSTERlover65]

what type of shampoo is that?

[imadielovinghorses]

@HAMSTERlover65 It looks like the vetrolin shampoo from what I can tell from the bottle becuase thats what I use..., Hope I helped.

[megasterlove]

hi im sorry but im new to the horse thing, what kind of shampoo would be best for a horse? Thanks! :)

[oXHalfMoonBayXo]

@megasterlove it really depends what colour horse you have :) i find thst shampoos ment for grey horses work best on greys because they have a littke bit of blue in them and it really helps the colour to pop out, but if have just a bay horse you could use any shampoo you want i use pantene sometimes or if its there first bath after a while and theyre really greasy i use dish soap :)

[brennamelnyk]

how often should you bathe your horse?

[kristian0gallops]

how many times per month do you need to bathe your horse?

[GainingBananas]

Babe, your horse is salivating. Wipe its mouth or something, that ain't pretty XD

[frozenberrie]

This lady is very good at what she does. All the expert village videos with her are flawless. This is really helping me renew my horse knowlege after a 28 yr haitus.

[Lilly123456ful]

Heey, well i dont own a horse but i am 13 and i work in this aniaml farm. It is volunteer work and i have a lot of fun. There is a Shetland and he is 27 years old and he easilt gets frustrated so does anyone maybe have some tips for me??? I also myself feel off a horse and i still didn't completely get over my fear :P

[JumpingSneak3]

@Lilly123456ful Maybe try tee- touch! :) it really works to relax a horse/ pony maybe if you try this he'll get better?

[2mrmagoo]

what kind of shampoo is that can anyone tell??

[horseysoar]

@2mrmagoo The shampoo she used looks(as far as I can tell by the bottle) looks a lot like Dr. Bronner's Magic All in One soap.

[2mrmagoo]

i wonder what kind of shampoo she used??

[naomifelter]

i know this this is soo easy i am ahorse rider but not prof

[KaseyWasHere1]

lol pause at 0:51 funny the horses eyes got all wide. BTW, ya'll are right. you should have let the horse smell the substance before you applied it. that is why the horse was spooked a little bit. and once a month seems pretty good...because bathing can take away the natural oils of the horse. grooming does not though. you can groom thouroughly during the winter. grooming doesn't really take away the natural oils.... anyways......

[larknken101]

yah.... i agree but if it's winter and your trying to loose the winter coat you want to get rid of the shedding hair. So it doesn't build up on your horse's coat. So therefore you should require a thorough grooming.... but your always supposed to thoroughly groom your horse. it doesn't really take that much "natural oils" out of their coat. esp. if their shedding which was what i was implying....? So in a way we're both correct.

[Fraktur3d]

before shampooing the horse you should of let her smelt it and get a feel of what is going to happen you started so suddenly so it spooked the horse. beautiful horse btw

[ILuvEdward33]

that was funny when the horse like flung her head up and her eyes got all big

[SaraD2557]

@ILuvEdward33 Well she was getting a massage AND a good scratching!

[witak765]

My horse has never been bathed... She kicks and bucks when we try how do i get my Blue Ribbon Horse to stand still while being bathed

[jeffreyRAWKS12798]

@witak765 lol what's Blue Ribbon Horse supposed to mean?

[gypsydreamer09]

lol i feel sorry 4 the horse because when kelly just started to scrub the horse, the look on the horse's face was like "WAIT WHAT ARE YOU DOING???" i would have let the horse smell the itme i was washing him/her withand then started to rub slowly then into a a little fast rub to let the horse relax

[XxXkeepXrockinXxX]

haha i know. her eyes got all wide.

[ECWnWWF]

I bought a shampoo, that after wetting the horse, all you have to do is scrub it in with the brush and then rinse...(don't forget to squeegee)

[lilsxckatiie]

bathe the horse anytime yu want i do once a week

[lkwhostalkinggx3]

love how shes like gasping for air the whole time. :] way to go kelly!!

[purpledaisy94]

when you were wearing th egreen vest it must have just been an off day ;)

[SunnyHorseLover]

ok i would say use a lil more shampoo in my option.

[dej92]

How about how to bath a horse that won't stand still?

[alyaluvhorsey]

Is that your horse? This video is a good video... because if anyone needs to know about how to shampoo a horse, they will understand... add more videos about horses!

[Horsesaredreams]

How many times a week should you wash your horse? Everyday? someone please help!

[communitypeach]

lol, bathing can be done however many times you want, i do it about once a month or before shows. :D

[mysocksskilletrocks]

anytime you want to

[larknken101]

you can bathe your horse maybe once a month or every 2 weeks. it depends on how messy your horse gets! my horse doesnt really get that dirty so i normally bathe her every two weeks or before shows. I like shiny horses! lol. but ya u cant bathe ur horse too many times. during the winter though just give them a thorough grooming! hope that helped! :)

[IceQueenSilhouette]

I usually do it once a week to ensure my horse's skin doesn't have any dirt or sweat itching him or any fungal development. And it also depends on the temperature of where you live. If you life in a cold place, make sure that when you are done bathing, the horse is in a warm temperature with a sweat sheet on to allow him to dry properly.

[pintorock101]

maybe it's becuase of the video you cant see it...hmm

[pintorock101]

i would suggest using a tougher sponge for those of you who havent done this before. those mits are almost identical to the ones you use on human babies which mean they are very very gental and are harder to get down deep. if you put the soap on with a sponge use a rubber curry to get down deep. for sensitive places such as the armpits (or whatever they are called on a horse) use a soaked rag.

[mbarrelracer]

No actually it isnt, you can buy those at tack shops which have a hard and soft side

[pintorock101]

i know but it doesnt look like one...are you sure? i swear it looks like the one for babies...

[mbarrelracer]

actually, yeah. it doesnt look rubber like the ones i have. probably because - pleasure horse.. therfor sensitive skin. (as most are bred like.. you know pleasure horses XD)

[pintorock101]

it doesnt seem like one either....it isnt barely making any suds...

[mysocksskilletrocks]

i know i was sitting there like there are no suds!!

[emsprincess11]

This Video Helped me ALOT becuz i had to wash my horse All by my self and I did everything you did on her! Thnxs
