Daily horse grooming is a vital step to help achieve a healthy and shiny looking coat (especially important for show horses). However, there are many more benefits of regular horse grooming. Horse grooming can strengthen the bond between a rider and his/her horse. It also allows the horse carer to regularly check for any new lumps, bumps, or injuries.

Overall, it plays an essential role in maintaining your horse's physical and mental wellbeing for a happy and healthy horse.

That is why it is so important to have the right tools for the job. What are the grooming must-haves?

A well-stocked grooming kit should consist of a variety of stiff and soft brushes to manage the coat through the different seasons.

A dedicated brush is kinder to the longer hair of the mane and tail and prevents hair from being broken off.

Sponges of different colours for eyes, muzzle, and dock area will keep your horse clean and comfortable in these sensitive locations.

A grooming mitt is a very useful addition for bath time as it is flexible enough to reach crevices and corners which may be inaccessible for a brush.

Couple this with an everyday stable shampoo that can deal with bathing, sponging off stable stains and tail washes as well as a complete bath.

A hoof pick and topical hoof treatment which is water-based and breathable are also essential and curved scissors for trimming the feathers and jawline.

A large and sturdy grooming kit box to keep these key items tucked away and clean will make the carer’s job much easier. Most boxes come with an internal and removable tray which is ideal for smaller items. Complete with a carrying handle, some of these boxes double up as steps useful when you are pulling or plaiting the mane and can even be a handy mounting block when you are out at a show.
