Hi All,
Braveheart is definitely shedding...as he does around this time every
year even though I've shown him the calendar and read him the weather reports.
He just looks at me, snorts and 423 more hairs fall out.
He, too, starts putting on winter coat in late August. We body-clipped
him twice this last summer so cooling down after cross-country or just after a
serious workout would go a little quicker. I've never body-clipped a horse
before and I was worried that it might keep him from growing his winter coat in
time or generally mess up his natural hair schedule in some way. It didn't.
Maybe it's just another amazing Fjord thing, but he can go from sleek show
horse to big yellow caterpillar practically overnight. Imagine how rich we
could
all be if there was a major market for Fjord hair!
