HOrse preparation requirements

BEFORE CLIP:

  • Bathing: Horse must be bathed and cleaned before the appointment (this ensures faster/smoother and clipping experience of the horse. This keeps the hair from snagging and pulling and clippers heating up more than needed).

  • Fully Brushed: If the horse cannot be bathed because of barn equipment, time of year, horse must be thoroughly brushed and clean & this communicated beforehand.

  • There is a $90 + on fee for horses that are not prepped before the clipping appointment (dirty horse = a not as neat clipping job and depending not as enjoyable experience for the horse/pony. Dirt and mud get stuck in in blades and pull hair . In addition it wears down clippers/blades/equipment & makes for an uneven cut)

  • Please communicate to us if the horse is difficult when clipping. If it comes down to needing to sedate the horse/pony, vet or owner will have to administer. This will have to be planned and set up for the day of clipping. If not communicated to me that the horse is difficult to clip, there is an automatic $90 + fee.

  • Driving mileage fee + please see add ons at check out.

DAY OF THE CLIP:

  • There must be a person present at the facility for safety reasons

  • Someone must be present to get the horses from their respected location (we do not go out in the the field and get a horse ourself)

  • Designated Quiet Clipping Area: Wash Stall or Cross Tie Area - preferably in a non traffic/busy area. This is to minimize distractions and added stress to the horse.

  • Horse/Pony brushes and if cold, cooler to cover (prefer not to use their own blanket because of hair getting stuck and makes them itchy)

  • Hay and Hay Net option: We want the clipping experience to be a positive one. A happy and entertained horse makes for a better clip.

  • Power Outlet - We do have battery powered sheers but prefer to have access if needed. If you do not have please let me know ahead of time.

  • Broom/Shovel/Dust pan/Poop Bucket/Wheel  - We are neat and tidy and like to keep it that way! =)

  • Payment must be done at completion of job.

  • PE has the right to refuse to clip if we deem it is too dangerous for ourselves, the horse and others.
