Poor Muddy managed to completely entagle his entire forelock in burrs. I procrastinated taking them out until mom said she'd help. Well...she did it all! And didn't even resort to cutting! It took awhile but she got it done and although he looked like Don King a few times at the end with a couple nice braids to help tame the 'fuzzy look'. He was presentable when he went home :)
The biggest problem was that he wouldn't keep his head down, I'd tempt him with treats or just keep pressure on the halter till he lowered his head...but heck, how uncomfortable for him really. I hate having my tangles combed out and tangles didn't even begin to describe what was going on around his head!!
They are out! But braids were needed with lots of cowboy magic (hair product that helps detangle and shine)
to get it all sleek again.
