Partial Clips: The Best of Both Worlds

I think this is a great message to send to all horse owners/riders! As much as folks would like to feel that they are well-informed, many would not know that there are these options to protect their equine buddies. However, so many clip options seem a bit "over-the-top" to me, but just the fact that the info is available is a good thing. I personally have been among folks who show little consideration for the comfort of their horse, whatever the weather, but dress themselves to the endth degree for their own comfort. I know folks who body clip their horses every winter because it's "convenient" for grooming, and of course, it shows off the beauty of the animal. Yikes! It's good to remind people that it's the animal who relies on them to provide safety and comfort which in the long run, keeps them happy, comfortable and most of all, HEALTHY.
