Below are some of the horses we visited while watching N's riding lesson on Saturday. It was 9 a.m. and a bitter cold wind was blowing, but it was great to watch the riders and visit the horses (even though they were very shaggy and not exactly in show condition with all the mud and rain. They were also eating dinner.

LOVE the horse pictures! They are soooo cute. :-) I think they shave them to keep them cleaner or cooler when they sweat. Can't remember what it is for sure....

ReplyDeleteThose pictures are so cute! They shave them so when the horse sweats, it will dry off faster without all of that long hair.
