My beautiful clydesdale filly who came to me just before Christmas is a total brat.
Here is the start of her becoming un-bratified. I'll update as we go so we can all watch her transformation into a good horse citizien.
She is pretty though...
(This is just for laughs. Don't take it as seriously as I am taking the education of this big baby. She is in safe hands and I have access to assistance should I need it. Enjoy the photos x)

Eeek didn't think they were so blurry! Sorry!
The road is a dead end road with no traffic at 7am. Just some terrifying sprinklers and murderous doves. She was perfectly safe, just been a bargy little twit and demanding that I take her back to her friends immediately. We had a good little lesson on how life is much easier when we listen to the human and she was a perfect little lady 10minutes after these action shots.
I'm really enjoying working with such a big horse. I think she is the most beautiful thing, even with her googly eyes :loveshower:

I'll get some pretty ones of The Brat tomorrow :D

I've never seen a web halter that buckles on the to of the nose like this:



and, the photo blurriness could be related to the resolution of the photo not being very high, or you having reduced it when you saved the photo (saved in a smaller size) . I dunno.

Tiny, that style of halter is more common in Australia and New Zealand. I've seen them in pics from the UK, some, too. Seems the US and Canada are the only ones to use the style the have the buckle under the chin instead of over the nose.

serioiusly? I've never seen that before. that puts a bit of hardware right on top of the sensitive nose bone. worse than the knots of a rope halter.

Little old fluffy pants had her tootsies done yesterday. She was very good however she is doing what most draftys seem to love doing, leaning in the farrier just fr the heck of it.
I gave her a groom which she loved and have plaited her mane and tail to keep them lovely and long. She really is growing.
Will string test her today

She's cute!!
I know a colt that has draft in him that leans on the farrier, it's quite annoying thinking of all that weight.:icon_rolleyes:
What is her real name? Although "the Brat" is very cute!!:D
Youngsters are fun, but they sure are a handful.:wink:

Update - The Brat is back in town! She's enjoying all the human attention and her best friend is my mini, Ham. She is slowly shedding out...I swear I'm getting enough fluff off her daily to cover another few horses! Her feather is rather impressive (imo) and she is currently the best behaved out of all my herd.
Farrier came yesterday and is very impressed with how well behaved she is. I had to put her feather in little pony tails though as they cover her whole hoof -_-* Very cute.
Will load some photos in a tick.
