Horse brush query

Hi there everyone, I've got a general horse question here as I'm new to keeping horses. What type of brush do I need to use to get mud off my horse as he’s always covered in dry mud when i bring him in and I'm struggling to remove it all!

i use to use a rubber curry comb and hard dandy brush

I agree with ATD, a rubber curry comb in circular motions usually gets rid of most mud, then a hard bristled dandy brush after!

As said plus a plastic currycomb is good too. Just use whatever works for you!!

Plastic curry comb thrn hard dandy brush

Plastic curry comb if unclipped and not too sensitive, otherwise a rubber curry comb, both followed with a dandy brush.

curry comb to remove mud, then hard dandy, then polish off with a soft bristle-
What kind of horse do you have, how have you come across having one? Enjoying it?!?

Agree with all of the above

I agree with the above but personally I find the best thing is a dandy brush. They get the mud off without removing too much of the essential oils in the horses coat. The bristles are harder too, which will make it easier to get the dry mud off.

agree with the above, especially about not using the plastic on a clipped horse, and also, if he's anything like mine was, i.e. the mane and neck are caked in mud, then I'd resort to the hose, especially if you're on clay soil out in the field, coz you've got no chance of getting that off! You'll know if it's clay, it's got a yellowy/orange tinge to it, but you'll just know, it won't come off in a cloud of dust, it just clags, it's awful stuff! So glad I don't have a horse now
