Yes, a dandy brush, or soft brush is a good thing to use on a horse's face and/or legs. Answer 2: In the UK, a "dandy" brush is a hard bristled brush unsuitable for use on the horse's face and sensitive areas. A body brush or special face brush is a more suitable alternative for these areas. It can safely be used on the legs however.
No, it's better to use a wire brush in circumflex movement and finish up with a soft brush to double check that all dirt is off.
The skin of a young horse is sensitive, so a soft brush is usually best to begin grooming a young horse. When the weather becomes hot and flies are biting, a coarser brush will be more welcomed.
It is best if a hard or Dandy brush is not used on the face or lower legs as it can be too rough for these sensitive areas.
u could but i wouldn't cause that is not what the soft brush is used for. Try using a hoof pick w/ a brush @ the end. The soft brush is used for "sweeping" dust and dirt off of the horses coat. (I'm a horselover!:-P) But you could, so long as you don't care if the soft brush gets dirty, the brush will not hurt your horse. (I'm also a horselover xD)
