Clementine was happy to see me after my week away.

We got her squared away again with her weekly Deluxe Bubble Bath and whitening treatment on her mane, tail and feathers.

Have you ever heard the saying…”A cobbler’s son never has shoes”?

Well the same goes for a Professional Grooms own horse.

Saturday was devoted to my heart horse. Getting her comfortable again with a full body clip.

A Deluxe Spa Day Bubble Bath 🫧 with premium products.

Stall water buckets scrubbed and refilled. Pasture trough emptied, scrubbed, refilled with fresh, cool water.

Properly decked out with fly mask, fly boots and fly spray for maximum comfort during afternoon turnout.

I love my girl more than words can say…hense the heart horse.

We are bonded.

We were meant to be.

2 of my regular clients in today for a rebraid on their deluxe manes: Norman, the draftie; and Joké the Fresian.

Buddy has really been suffering from this heat during his weekly lesson schedule.

He signed up for a full body clip for some much needed relief.

PSA
Summertime in Fla is hot & humid. This makes it challenging for horses to cool themselves down by sweating along (nevermind the non-sweaters).

Cold-hosing your horse daily is the #1 way you can help keep them cool. 💦

If you can’t get out to the barn, get someone to do it for you. 😎

Trade out with a barn buddy. 👯‍♂️

Or hire someone. 🙋‍♀️ I’m available at Innovation Arabians, and in the Tomoka Farms Village area.

Meet “Norman”
The Gentle Giant

With all the busy-ness of back-to-school preparations Norman was added to my grooming service to maintain his long, thick mane & tail plus weekly baths for his itchy summer skin.

Thank you, Crystal, for entrusting him in our care.
