Those annoying little hairs!!!

riding_reaper · 05-06-2005, 01:46 PM

When your horse sheds does it have those annoying little long hairs on its shoulder and ribs? My horse has those and they are annoying me so much!!! They have been there for about a month now. When will they leave?! lol. I have tried brushing them out and my horse gets all mad if I try to pluck them out.

I wonder why. lol. Sorry I'm being a little crazy today.

I dont touch them until they are ready to come out. If they cant be brushed out, then the horse still need them! I guess im too used to it living up here in the freeking cold Canadian prairies.

those arent as bad as "piggy hairs" that we get when we clip the minis. They come in a couple weeks after the show and they look like big hairs all over. My boy I train is black, but when I shave he is lighter, but then these half inch long black haris come in all over and it is soo ugly lol. My friend, her horse is dapple grey, and his piggy hairs are sorrel so you can just imagine how weird it looks... I would just leave those hairs there if I were you.. They will come out eventually.

My mare has them too, and I just leave them be, they come out eventually.
She is nice and shiny otherwise!
