Only thing that I know about horse clipping is "twitching", and ear clipping, so probably not much help to you. BTW, will you be doing creatiuve at PetExpo? If so, what are you doing?

Ok i Am no expert on horse clipping, but i have read and read.
I did a #10 full body clip on my mini he looked great will get photo next clip.
It was his first clip and i found he was good if i took it slow.
It hurt my back though oh have to teach him to get in the hydro bath and on the table lol

Hi Porshang

I'm a horsey girl too but admit to knowing nothing about the clipping side of things. However, I can find out for you. My Aunty owns a mini too and gets hers regularly clipped by a friend. Is it just the clipping info you're after or actual styles?

Great pic....very funny even colours all match! reminds me of the article about Japanese buying sheep clipped like poodles. Didnt know they were sheep until vet told them when they took them for their "nails " to be clipped!!!!!
