This message is from: kelly MacDonald <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I clip the head (all goat hairs, muzzle, those long hairs above the eye) back of the legs and the coronet. I trim the ears well but never completely clean them out. I (of course) leave the feathers. I do use a little baby oil around the muzzle and eyes, nothing crazy but to add a little shine. I make sure the mane is cut perfectly. I polished hooves right before I enter the ring and make sure the tail is tangle free and shiny. I like to show off the Fjords as beautiful, well groomed, well conditioned horses - just like any other breed.
