Filthy Pig-Mare

I. Hate. Red. Mud.

Because Dee grows a winter coat that would make a yak proud, the red mud just gets ground into her coat until it is light red/brown dust.  This dust will not come out.  I curry and curry, and brush and brush, but she still looks like an absolute dirt ball.  I know she can't help it, but ugh.  She looks terrible. I can't wait until it's warm enough for me to give her a long, warm, sudsy bath.

She looks EXTRA filthy because I had just finished some in-hand work, and had given her some bum scratches as a reward.  At least her shoulder is shiny.
