Please tell me I wasn't the only one who noticed that side eye Barbie gave when she said, "Honestly this place is so noisy with animals." at 6:09😂 Loved this video!😂👏🏽
After seeing this I appreciate my black mare even more! One question though: I was taught to always sweat scrape (particularly when it’s hot) as water in their coat insulates and raises body temp. Your thoughts please? Thanks for the video - I learned 😁 Further to above I’m told the “scrape or they over-heat is a myth”. Agree to a point - but my girls coat will wet in the rain yet her skin is dry.
The recent thing with heat and wet horses by thermal camera showed removing the water made them hotter, a continuous cool flow of water was more effective at cooling. They also compared it to after we swim, you feel cold in the air, but if you towel dried your self you feel warmer. Hope that makes sense.
Hi, I don’t know if you still want an explanation, but you may understand better why. So, it is more beneficial to the horse (if your goal is to cool the horse down) to keep the water on and let them drip-dry. You can compare it to sweat, the horse’s natural way of bringing down body temperature. The sweat evaporates, which takes away warmth from the horse. The same thing happens when you wet your horse, only more and faster. Of course, when bathing in winter you have to be extra careful so your horse won’t get too cold. So, you particularly have to sweat scrape and make them fully dry when it’s cold, not when it’s hot. Hope this helped you :)
If it's Really hot, dont scrape. Let them airdry. They will cool off much easier with a wet fur and Also dirt/sand Will stick Better, so they protect themselfes from insects.
I'm not sure they did the studies these ppl r talking about, which I've seen as well, in extreme 100 degree 100 percent humidity weather like we get in Florida. Water nor sweat evaporates well in that so we do still sweat scrape here since to cool the horse it needs to be able to evaporate. Saying that adding a bit of linament or something to the water cans actually help it to evaporate better in those conditions.
I'll tell you an easier way: 1. Prepare your materials (room, water, hose, bucket, sponge, scrubber [I like to use a rubber makeup scrubber you can put on your hand, really handy], shampoo, conditioner), I also like to brush the horse behorehand to get most of the dust and dirt out of their coat 2. Wet the horse starting with their feet and backside to let them adjust to the water, you can use a sponge to wet the face if your horse doesn't like the water sprayed on their face or try getting them to play with the water with their snout and work upwards from that when the horse is more comfortable 3. Mix shampoo with water in the bucket, apply it to the horse with the sponge starting from the highest point (their neck) and work your way along the horse making sure to completely lather them in the shampoo mixture, wash the mane 4. Take the scrubber and start scrubbing the horse, again, starting with the highest point, don't use the scrubber on sensitive areas like underbelly, legs, genitalia, snout and general eyes area, use a sponge for those 5. To easily wash the tail just dip it into the bucket with the shampoo mixture to wet it, then work the shampoo in with your hands 6. Wash the horse's face with a sponge or using your hands, if the horse doesn't like the sponge in their face 7. Rinse off the shampoo, starting with the face, then neck and working your way along, be sure to carefully wash everything out 8. Dry off the horse by wringing out its tail (don't hurt it obviously), squeezing the mane to get the excess water out and scrape it down or even towel-dry them if it's really cold (and put a fleece blanket over them) If you want to use conditioner then start by washing the tail, then mane and putting the conditioner in before you wash the horse's body. I sometimes use a coat spray with macadamia or argan oil or whatever (which is actually for my dog lol) to spray down the horse when it's about towel-dry and brush that through their coat if I need an extra shine on it.
Maya Shor Thank you 🎬😉. You can still get started, even with what you have now. Iv got a few videos on my channel that gives some tips on how to create better videos. Feel free to shoot me any question 😁
Ha, thanks! My horse Rose was gettin' a bit dirty running around the farm. She just had a foal we called Gallop. Gallop is male and is 2 months old now.
I discovered something accidentally - Head n Shoulders 2-1 is what I use for the first 'shampooing' and do the purple stuff for the second. The difference the H&S gives is unbelievable. Makes it super white, super soft (my whole horse is white). My husband used it accidentally on my mare and I was so wowed with how she looked. I stopped using regular horse shampoos after that.
My palomino mares father was gray so she has a ton of black in her tail and it's a royal pain luckily it's on the inside so it doesnt show much. But her mane is platinum white thankfully but the white bits of her tail are a pain because she lives in a field with a muddy pond so how you whiten them is helpful
well brushed,well pention found,well self tools,mistake beside position,bravo bravo for natural oil lousion (use for 4 legs),welled shampoo very well,and more
watch bending down to wash a tail like that one kick is all it takes especially dealing with a young one. I pull my horse's tail to the side and wash it. This is prob the #1 rule of good horsemanship. I've seen way too many horse accidents in my life.
You must really trust your horse if you go behind it to wash the tail. Last person I watched they stayed to the side as they washed the tail. They said its a good habit to be in that position cause you dont know how the horse will react with different water pressure and just in case its good to stay too the side to not get kicked.
nuh nuh you need to be more pro in cleaning them and use the shampoo properly to satisfy them and make them feel fresh and look clean also take large amount of shampoo to make sure u cover the whole tail and give them a good rought rub that is satifying trhem brings out there dead cells and make him or her look a new positive look
You didn’t really touch the sides when you ‘washed’ her body. It was like a splash of water cool down. Their coat has such depth, in order to get into their coat ans remove the dust, it would take a clean with greater depth.
FEI considering the ban of bitless bridles in their cross country competitions is completely stupid! I ride in a bit but I know that people who ride bitless will stop competing in FEI global events. Don’t do it
it's not that risky as long as you let the horse know you're back there, as long as they know where you are they won't be spooky and kick out in surprise :/
Step one: have a perfectly clean, gorgeous horse
V haha it helps!
Your profile picture... I CAN’T- 💀😂
Please tell me I wasn't the only one who noticed that side eye Barbie gave when she said, "Honestly this place is so noisy with animals." at 6:09😂 Loved this video!😂👏🏽
Tori Ro
Hahaha i noticed it to when i read your comment the horse gave her a “death” stare lol😂😂😂😂😂
step one: have a horse
medusa. Yes, that’s important😂
True😂
No the first step is getting enough money...
@@shyenzabala9758 rii
So smart of you 😂😂
That horse is absolutely perfection! The perfect shade of palomino too!
Agreed. I'm not usually a big palomino fan but this gal is gorgeous
Still watched this even though I know how to bathe a horse 😂
horsegirl07 lol. I don't even know how to bathe mine, my horse, lady, is a sassy girl. So she probably won't let me.
horsegirl07 same
Same
It’s so relaxing when other people do it 😂
Lol
You couldn't have picked a better FEI representative...Olivia is a 💘
Me too!❤
Melts my heart
I know how to bathe a horse but these videos are so satisfying to watch

Yes in the heat we let them drip dry, in the colder weather we use this so they dont get a chill :) x

Your horse is so pretty

I love spinning the tail it's the best part of bathing a horse
Emma Hewitt so Fun!
Another great fei blog and Barbie was such a good girl
Thanks so much Dave.
This is one of the reasons that Olivia Towers is so brilliant.. I can simply just watch her wash a horse and find it enjoyable 😂😍
What? ..
Just from watching this video I am so into Horses
I love that she got her dinner afterwards.
Love FEI love Olivia Towers 💕
i just wanted to say what a beautiful horse you have! ❤️🐎
Thank you so much I love her to bits x
Ready for the show, smelling like an Hawaiian vacation....nice!
hahha she was fresh as a daisy!
Super informative, high quality video. Well done!
I would just like to add, while filming this I might as well have had a bath 🙈🤣 fun to film though. I learned some stuff.
Olivia Paquette élève Hi, yes all the FEI videos and Olivia Towers specials on Olivias channel I film. 😉
Olivia Paquette élève Thank you I appreciate it 😉 I’ll pass it on. Ps we have a special one I think you will really like coming out soon.
Aw I really want to make horsey videos I wish I had a guy like you to film you've done a great job!!❤😂
Maya Shor Thank you 🎬😉. You can still get started, even with what you have now. Iv got a few videos on my channel that gives some tips on how to create better videos. Feel free to shoot me any question 😁
Use a bucket to soak the tail it helps break up the manure out of her tail. I have a palomino too. I use dawn dish soap for the tail and then bag it.
What a beautiful horse and such a patient baby 💝
Such a beautiful horse
Purple shampoo🧴is the best. Love the white 🧦 mine hate when I wash there head 🧼 she’s beautiful
Ha, thanks! My horse Rose was gettin' a bit dirty running around the farm. She just had a foal we called Gallop. Gallop is male and is 2 months old now.

broooooo you’re so pretty
do use false tails for comps? BTW she is gorgeous
Beautiful horse 🐎
Your videos are fabulous I love them
I feel like my horse hates when I bathe it, always kicking but she’s been more patient with me as I’ve gotten better !
Thank you for this great video, i have seen a washing of a horse earlier, that made me angry, he washed the horse in a carwash :(
Oml

But her mane is platinum white thankfully but the white bits of her tail are a pain because she lives in a field with a muddy pond so how you whiten them is helpful
She is gorgeous and so squeaky clean. :) and patient.
well brushed,well pention found,well self tools,mistake beside position,bravo bravo for natural oil lousion (use for 4 legs),welled shampoo very well,and more
You use tap water? What about warm water especially in cold weather?
Barb is a lovely mare
watch bending down to wash a tail like that one kick is all it takes especially dealing with a young one. I pull my horse's tail to the side and wash it. This is prob the #1 rule of good horsemanship. I've seen way too many horse accidents in my life.
You literally took the words out of mouth spot on 👍🏼
Yeah. It made me nervous seeing her behind the horse.
This video is so satisfying
Which shampoo use to clean dandruff in our horse body
Is this a palomino ? Please someone answer me for I'm confused. She looks chestnut but has a white mane.
I need to know the camera they used😍😍😍
Are you using warm water ?
Is your water warm? My pony hates the bath. I wash him once a year. He is mostly white and loves to roll.
You must really trust your horse if you go behind it to wash the tail. Last person I watched they stayed to the side as they washed the tail. They said its a good habit to be in that position cause you dont know how the horse will react with different water pressure and just in case its good to stay too the side to not get kicked.
awsome vid
I know how to bathe a horse I’m not going to a show and I don’t even do dressage!😂I’m watching for no reason
Waw
❤
Good very nice
What happened to the sweat rug? Unless its hot in summer that horse will get cold before dry
How do you get her mane to stay on one side? My horses mane is mainly on one side but he still has a section which isn’t
I banded my old mares mane over. I did it right after washing when it was still wet. You can look up some tips on it, but it worked for me
my horse won't stand still while washing so that's great hahah
It happens some times haha
نصيحة لا تقترب مني احب النظافة بشكل رهيب بشكل لا يصدق
nuh nuh
you need to be more pro in cleaning them and use the shampoo properly to satisfy them and make them feel fresh and look clean also take large amount of shampoo to make sure u cover the whole tail and give them a good rought rub that is satifying trhem brings out there dead cells and make him or her look a new positive look
17:41 посмотрите на ширину прохода
Manes and tails shed just like the rest of them. Combing and brushing help remove those shedded hairs. Looses hairs are what starts those nasty mats
❤❤❤❤❤
I'd take it through a car wash you always get a free air freshener 😁
Anyone else watching, even though they bathe horses constantly🤣
I get so nervous when anyone stands behind a horse....
me too..
You didn’t really touch the sides when you ‘washed’ her body. It was like a splash of water cool down. Their coat has such depth, in order to get into their coat ans remove the dust, it would take a clean with greater depth.
are you the owner of the barn and land
Bathe. BATHE! You BATHE a horse! *cries*
Me watching for the thousands time 👁👄👁
👍👍
How tall is she?
You’re not afraid of getting kicked when you work from behind?
Who doesn't have a horse but is here
At least you don’t have to deal with a wooly fjord 😒🤣
u know u don't have a life anymore when u recognize olivia towers from the thumbnail from her hair.
i dont even have a dog but i still watched this 20 min video, what is wrong with me?
FEI considering the ban of bitless bridles in their cross country competitions is completely stupid! I ride in a bit but I know that people who ride bitless will stop competing in FEI global events. Don’t do it
There is so many treats that you can give to a horse that are so much better then sugar...
Romans 13:12 The night is nearly over; the day is almost here. So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the amor of light.
Bathe*?
the horse has a better bath than me.
Most of us watching this vedio does not have a horse😂
If I want a horse I’m scared to wash his tail bc I’m scared he will kick me and boom I’m dead fr 💀
😂😂😂😂😊❤❤🎉🎉
I heard a horse doesn't bath
Me too so satisfying
As we medical folk say, " clean to dirty":)
What! No hot tub? No bubble bath?! No Pedi? MOM!!!!
haha I know how naughty of me!
The last thing I would do is cleaning a horse tail which has pee on it plus poop
Megan taking a shower
You bathe a horse or give the horse a bath. You don't bath it.
My bad!
she looks like Malibu Barbie
Never will I stand behind a horse
Step one: you should have a horse...
Ok so she stands behind a horse with no protection, that is risky.
She was completely relaxed... i dont see a problem.
Okay? I stand behind my horse when I'm brushing her? But I guess I shouldn't since my horse one time slowly kicked my cow..
it's not that risky as long as you let the horse know you're back there, as long as they know where you are they won't be spooky and kick out in surprise :/
Step one: have a dirty horse this horse is gleaming
One of the least annoying Olivia Towers videos wish she acted like this more often
lillerella that’s rude.
Well aren't you a ray of sunshine :/
haha I actually love this!
