How To Wash Horses’ Hoofs And Their Feathered Legs The Easy Way

[@11Tinagee]

"Atlantic sea water. Because you're worth it!" I laughed out loud. :) Beautiful horses!

[@thomashverring9484]

Henry's moustache alone deserves the first prize! And the whole of Henry a dozen!

[@sinimannerstuff4438]

"Atlantic seawater, cz you're worth it.." Oh. My. Stars. I loved this clip well before that punchline! 👍😄😄😄

[@scott98390]

"...because you're worth it." ROTFLMAO!!!!

[@mgafMUAT]

That ending prompt'd a "Did you just?!" from me

[@gracesteffen8562]

I think the horses with the feathered hooves are so beautiful 🐴

[@tonywatson987]

How patient was that horse with the jet wash! and yes, it was worth it! :-) Keep these vids coming, makes my day!

[@thundercloud47]

How good is it to find alternative methods that aren't exhausting, and enjoyable too! At the event, shame on the judges, Henry was by far the most alert and attentive of them all. And his sheer elegance and self-possession...those judges need glasses, or new ones to replace their old ones. Such a shame to have a winner right under (or not far from) their noses and not be able to see (or comprehend) it. Henry, you will always be a 1st Prize winner to me. Gretchen

[@WayOutWestx2]

+thundercloud47 Well said, Gretchen : - )

[@BernhardHofmann]

Henry doesn't need a first place badge from some competition because he's already a winner. He's got a happy life with loving owners. What more could a horse wish for. 🏇👍

[@kirstenwhitworth8079]

Henry, Winnie and Flora seem like such well behaved horses, so calm and willing. They are all gorgeous. Mira did a good job; she and Henry deserved a blue ribbon, because he's worth it.

[@cicero44bc]

Loved the ending!

[@stephenmurray2818]

what a lovely horse Henry is and so well behaved with the jet wash

[@WayOutWestx2]

+Stephen Murray He's just an amazing horse : - )

[@user-dx2pg8mo1d]

That horse is so beautiful!!!!!!!!!!

[@pheebsylovesanimals3009]

how patient was that horse sea water seems alot easier though

[@yvonneshort681]

We always paddle ours in the sea. Then we let them have a long relaxing roll in the sand

[@martynvharris3079]

A much easier way to wash feathers if you happen to have an ocean handy! Meanwhile I will have to get our boys used to the pressure washer.

[@caitlinbagg7008]

I use washing up liquid as well and any opportunity to do the hour drive to the beach always turns out cleaner ahaha typical :)

[@amberloveridge1567]

Very helpful thank you

[@WayOutWestx2]

Glad it was helpful!

[@benmatthews3732]

Well that looks fun! Say, when will we see some more "work horse trainer" videos? 😊 (Beth)

[@WayOutWestx2]

+Ben Matthews Excellent question, Beth. I shall pass it on to The Important One.. : - )

[@workhorsetrainer8285]

+Ben Matthews I know, it's been a while since the last video on 'Work Horse Trainer' - things are just so busy here in summer! Just can't find the time to do everything! But please remain patient, another video is on its way sometime soon :)

[@hollie7470]

Love this 😂👏🏼

[@abelvillarreal6488]

excellent

[@michellehays4003]

Can you trim the feathers?

[@WayOutWestx2]

People do, but only to make them look even more fluffy

[@rjp985]

if I could get my dog to do that we would be so happy,i guess it'll be the elbow grease for the time being.

[@Teresasblaze]

Love it

[@luiscalcocer]

is that a clydesdale?

[@WayOutWestx2]

Irish Cob

[@laurenhaak7964]

I don't like how you used a power washer to get the soap off 😖

[@WayOutWestx2]

It depends completely on how close it is to the horse. Of course you need to be careful, but just don't get too close and it's a great tool.

[@ireneherdman2587]

Iove it

[@jimbobthefirst7716]

are ye going to plowing anyday this week? oh and the video was very helpfull. we useally let our horse clean her self in the drain. my grandad use pump water out of it for the house so it very clean

[@WayOutWestx2]

+Jimbob The First t I don't think they'd let us in - we don't really do perfect ploughing!

[@bobe.5189]

Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!! That's great!

[@danielstephens1049]

Could big work horses like vanners and such be both work show and pleasure western and such

[@WayOutWestx2]

Yes, we use them for cross-country, jumping, long-distance, logging, ploughing - and of course therapy work. Have a look at the other videos we have made about them..

[@danielstephens1049]

Btw luv luv luv LUV UR CHANNEL

[@บุ๋มบุ๋ม-ฟ2ธ7ช]

this horse breeds Clydesdale?

[@WayOutWestx2]

+บุ๋ม บุ๋ม the breed is Irish Cob

[@บุ๋มบุ๋ม-ฟ2ธ7ช]

+WayOutWest Blowinblog your horse is beautyful ^_^

[@randomlol3760]

Ooh you can just put salt and then water instead of going to the beach all the time :D

[@bennhanna1023]

You shouldn't use a power washer especially around the legs

[@WayOutWestx2]

+benn hanna why?

[@sarahschaefer9291]

+WayOutWest Blowinblog it's extremely bad for their skin and tendons on the leg. using it on the hoof below the coronary band is fine though. you have some gorgeous horses by the way :)

[@WayOutWestx2]

we only showed it to demonstrate how we used to wash his legs - but now we take them all to the sea. But really our power washer is not at all powerful and you can see how careful we were with it. (We're not silly!)

[@sarahschaefer9291]

My bad, I'm pretty much only use to the high powered pressure washers. Unfortunately I have no access to the sea (I wish I did it's gorgeous over there!) so I just use the hose. I tried a low power pressure washer on my gypsy not too long ago and it worked great!

[@angeloddrev]

If you wash the feathers with a special whitening shampoo, it's purple, then dry and chalk up the feathers, they are really pristine white :)

[@loicmccormick246]

Don't you need to wash off the see water after other wides it is bad for the skin

[@nancysutton7891]

Hmmm.... wonder if it works as well on the rest of the hairy horse... does a swim freshen them all up? and... human hair? Pacific sea water work as well? .... hmmmm.....

[@gaelenhixson2886]

So funny.

[@amberslagle4622]

Looks like dish soap. That'll dry out the hair.... If your horse can tolerate it i'd suggest setting his foot in a bucket of water with shampoo and wash away. So much easier.

[@WayOutWestx2]

I tried that many times, Amber. Have you tried my way yet?

[@IslandExoticsHomestead]

;)

[@zivarozej2753]

I wouldnt recomend using dish soap for horses since their skin is rly sensitive... please dont do it...

[@WayOutWestx2]

We wouldn't recommend it either - but not because of any reaction we had from the horses (we never had any), but because sea water is much better.

[@zivarozej2753]

@@WayOutWestx2 i totaly get it ;) but i have experienced problems with my horse because i used normal horses shampoo (she has rly sensitive skin) but every horse is difdrent tho😂 its obious that henry isnt in pain (if he was he wouldnt let you do that) but yes i totaly agree with sew water method since its easy and fun. My sisters horse got injured but it healed with sea water :)

[@lolamarzec9630]

Not trying to be mean but that girl is too green to be on Henry she can't even keep her heels down not can she control him

[@petrichor4704]

Did u just call a person 'green'?

[@lolamarzec9630]

+Breyer Lover Pysch do you know about horses and what green means?

[@lolamarzec9630]

I posted this a year ago. Also I know what a green rider and horse are. do you?

[@lolamarzec9630]

Honey the horse world is completely opinion based. Also I don't what tree hugging method you're using nor do I give a shit.

[@Skittledikk]

fucking washing up liquid? wtf?

[@caithlincunningham8716]

Nerfern that's what u can use it's nit poison you fool !
