Before and After bath pictures!

Paint_luver · 07-20-2004, 12:56 PM

Okay, Buddy was really dirty, my brother was coming to see him, it was 95 degrees out with 95% humidity, sooooo.... I figured I would give him a bath! And since I now have my new camera, I had to of course take some pictures of him before, during(ish) and after.

Here they are.

#1-4 are before pics. He may not look tooo dirty, but trust me, those manure stains are just the beginning of his dirty problems! Sorry I couldn't get a fully body pic too well, so I just focused in on different areas.

#5-7 are pics after his bath, but while he's still wet. I wanted to include these because he looks so pretty when he's wet, you can even see that silver lining that you can't see when he's dry unfortunately!

#8-9 are pics after his bath when he was dry.

Too bad I didn't get pics of me before and after the bath! Needless to say, I did NOT get clean like Buddy did!

Wanna come bathe Jacqueline?

You did a GREAT job!

Paint_luver · 07-20-2004, 01:02 PM

Thanks. It took me like 30 minutes of pure scrubbing before I got him to look decent. There were still a few stains here and there, but nothing majorly noticeable luckily!

Thanks for the compliements. NOw, if only he could STAY clean!

Minihorsegirl, I came into the office and my manager was in there after the bath. She took one look at me, and burst out laughing, asking if I had gotten in a rough fight with the hose.

Sher, thank you. I love him wet, I wish he looked like that dry too! I like how the markings are darker, and I LOVE the silver lining too!!! Oh well....

Thanks KT. It's funny, if you look at his markings, there's one in the shape of an english saddle, right about where it should sit on his back. Too bad it's covered up when he's tacked up.

Also, for anyone who's interested, I have a few of me riding him today, but most are kind of dark. If you want to see them, let me know and I'll post a few.
