A couple of days ago we finished up our second wave of body clipping. We started round two a few weeks ago so we will probably only get a break of 2 or 3 weeks before it is time for round three. Occasionally we have a horse that needs a 4th clip but that’s pretty rare. In round one we did 21 body clips, and in round two we did 11 body clips. 32 body clips and counting for the season adds up to a lot of hair!
Sebastian clearly had things he wanted to do other than have a bath

Cuffie after his clip; clearly we starved him while clipping him as he simply could not lift his head up from the grass
