The beginners guide to horse grooming - including brushing, basic hoof picking and bathing. This course is designed for new horse owners as well as anyone interested in basic grooming for horses. All ages are welcome!

Throughout this class, you will learn some of the reasons why grooming is an important part of horse care as well as an important bonding exercise.  You will be encouraged to observe your animal's behavior and gauge their comfort levels in order to adjust your technique accordingly.
