In what order are brushes used on a horse?
metal curry, rubber curry, hard brush, soft brush, hoof pick, mane and tail comb, grooming cloth Curry comb, hard brush, soft brush, hood pick. You don't need to comb the mane and tail with every brushing, but do pick out the shavings. DON'T COMB THE TAIL AT ALL! It can pull hairs out which will take a long time to grow back - If you want to bush the tail - use a body brush Everything said above. But if you find that your horse has burrs or knots in their tail, gently untangle them with your fingers. Be careful not to rip hair out.
How do you brush a pony?
If your horse has mud on it, use a curry comb in circular motions to loosen the dirt. then use a stiff brush with a flicking motion of your wrist to flick off the loosened dirt/mud. then you may choose to go over the horse with a soft (finishing) brush with long smooth motions to sweep off any remaining dust particles to give the horse a more polished look. You can either brush or comb the mane and tail if you wish and you should clean out its feet every day, just to check for stones or, if your horse wears shoes, check for loose shoes. You could groom your horse well enough to ride with only a hoof pick and a stiff brush, but to get the most thorough job, you should use a curry comb and soft or finishing brush.

What do you clean your horse with?
Cleaning a horse can end up taking a long time if you have a difficult horse but an easy horse won't be as much of a bother. There are a few types of brushes that can be found in every horse shop, curry comb; a fat & hard bristled brush which brings the dirt from the skin to the top of the hair Brussels, hard brush: used to flick away what the curry comb brings up from the skin, soft brush; a polishing brush and most horse love the feel of it on their skin kinda like a massage and the last item, a tail and main brush; like it's name it brushes knots out of main and tail but... it can annoy a horse so much that some times it's better to use your hands to pull knots out. The last item that is not a brush or comb is the hoof pick; picks rocks, hay and #2 out from in between the nail and the frog. Don't hit the frog it'll hurt the horse allot!

There are many different items to groom a horse with. Probably the most essential one is the hoof pick, which is used to remove debris from the horse's hoof. There is the currycomb, which is used in circular motions to loosen dirt and shedding hair from the horse. There is also a metal currycomb, which is used to clean other brushes, NOT the horse! There is the dandy brush, which as long and stiff bristles. Be careful not to use this hard, and not at all on thin-skinned horses. There is the body brush, which has shorter bristles and is softer than the dandy brush. There are numerous different grooming supplies. Make sure to select the ones that are best for the horse you're grooming : ). The main types of grooming equipment needed are: a curry comb, a dandy brush (same thing as a hard brush), a soft brush, a finishing brush, a face brush (and a face curry comb), a hoff pick and a shedding blade. Just remember to always groom your horse. You don't have to give it a full groom, but just brush it's coat so there is no dirt stuck to the hair (with using the curry comb), brush the dirt off (either dandy brush or soft brush), and pick the horse's feet (hoof pick).
What is a curry cumb for a horse. And what does it look like?
A curry comb is the first tool used when grooming a horse. It can be in various sizes, and it looks like an oval shaped tool with rubber or plastic spikes coming out of the one side. MAKE SURE that when you groom your horse, though, that you use your tools in this order. Curry Comb, Dandy Brush, Soft Brush, and then the Hoof Pick. The curry comb gets all the dirt and dust out of a horses coat, then the Dandy, or hard brush, brushes the dirt and dust off of the horses coat. The Soft Brush gives your horse a nice finishing shine. Curry combs must not be used on the legs, face, or sensitive parts of your horses belly. The Dandy Brush can be used anywhere except for the face and lower legs. Soft Brushes... Everywhere. The hoof pick can be used anywhere on the hoof, but you must beware about the horse's frog. The Frog is a triangle looking bone in the middle of the horse's hoof. It is very senstive, as when it is touches it pumps blood through the horses veins. That is why it is so very important to excersize horses regularily, for when their left in their stalls or paddicks for a long time, blood doesn't get pumped through their bodies because they're not moving. That's why horses get lame- because of lack of excersize. I know this is more that what you wanted to know, but it's all imported aspects of taking care of horses. Hope this helps- =)
