GROOMING
Soft Brush
Soft bristles are gentler enough to use on the legs and face, as well as the rest of the body. Ideal for sensitive, thin-skinned horses or as a finishing brush.
Use a body brush to remove fine dust and dander from your horse’s skin and coat and really brings up a shine.
Use a face brush to brush fits in the palm of your hand and easily navigates the contours of the face while giving a gentle groom.

Medium or Stiff Bristle Brush
Sometimes referred to as a dandy brush, this basic brush is good for general purpose grooming to remove dirt and dust from the coat. Synthetic bristles are durable and easy to disinfect, while natural fiber bristles are very effective. A medium brush works well for the majority of grooming needs. Select stiffer bristle styles to tackle tough jobs like dried mud and sweat or a thick winter coat. Use care with the firmer brushes and avoid sensitive or bony areas such as the legs and face.

Metal Curry
The old-fashioned metal curry combs are rather sharp and should generally not be used on the horse’s body. Occasionally they are useful for removing caked mud or for shedding winter hair, taking care not to press too hard into the skin. These are best used to clean other brushes and remove horse hair accumulated on saddle pads.

Bathing kit
A large sponge is the most efficient way to lather up your horse at bath time. You’ll want several types of sponges in your grooming kit for bathing and spot cleaning. Use a large sponge for the body and a smaller sponge for the face. You may also want a separate sponge for cleaning under your horse’s dock and between his hind legs.
Use a sweat scraper to squeegee excess water from your horse’s coat after bathing or rinsing.
A 20-quart bucket is the perfect size to mix up suds and also totes your bath essentials to the wash rack.
