How often does a horse have to get clipped?

If the horse will not be shown, or does not develop such a thick winter coat that he gets overheated, it's a better idea not to clip them; the hair is there for a reason! If they do need to be clipped, there is no set time period; it's whenever you think he needs it.

How often should a horse be cliped?

Once a month unless you need it done before a show. :]Horses don't realy need to be clipped. if your horse is a show horse the horse must be clipped weekly, or when ever you see whisker, or long hair growth. an average horse, meaning outside, trail rides, or like a pasture horse, doesn't need to be clipped, but if you like you can. unless you are proffesional, you should not clip a horse for the first time on your own. make sure you have assistance from someone who knows what they are doing. h

I clipped my horse early January and he has molted out the clipped hair but grown back a thick coat which is now not molting again - Any idea why this has happened and do you think he will molt again?

How old is your horse? He/she could have a condition that causes the coat to grow thick and woolly all year round.Older horses are more prone to this,drinking lots of water is also linked to Cushions.I would get a vet to check the horse over as a simple blood test will tell you what is wrong.You may find you have to clip him every few weeks.

What breed of horse is really furry the owner said he was part Quarter horse?

The "fuzziest" type of horse breed out there is the Baskir Curly, known for their long, wolly coat. However, if you saw this horse during the shorter daylight months (winter) the horse probably had grown in its winter coat and therefore would appear wollier than a summer horse coat. There is also a horse disease known as Cushings in wich one of the symptoms is a long, dense coat that doesn't shed out without being clipped. Cushings is a BAD disease and can hinder a horse (and owner) enough to justify putting the animal down. As for the Quarter horse part, it is possible the breed is a mix, or a real QH with one of the situations above.

Any and all breeds of horses will grow a thick winter coat to bare the cold weather.
